Konceptualizacija gubitnika i dobitnika post-socijalističke transformacije srpskog društva

Abstract

Predmet ove disertacije je identifikacija društvenih konceptualizacija koje su se formirale u pogledu gubitništva i dobitništva u tranziciji, čime je ovim pojavama pridodata posebna i značajna društvena dimenzija. Istraživanje treba da pokaže koji su tipovi gubitnika i dobitnika prepoznati u društvu Srbije, uz istovremeno otkrivanje diskursa u okviru kojih se formiraju njihove percepcije i evaluacije. Identifikacija, tipologija i konceptualizacija gubitnika i dobitnika će se obaviti na osnovu građe koju predstavljaju odgovarajući elektronski, medijski tekstovi i komentari čitalaca na njih. Kroz prizmu koju zajedno čine ovakvi komentari i medijski tekstovi pokušaću da pristupim društvenim predstavama, tj. da iščitam konceptualizacije gubitnika i dobitnika tranzicije i diskurse koji ih oblikuju. Glavni cilj ovako osmišljenog pristupa jeste uočavanje toga na šta ukazuju i o čemu najčešće govore poruke koje su sadržane unutar takvih diskursa. Uz to, kao još jedan zadatak se izdvaja razumevanje, tumačenje i objašnjenje konstrukcija i pripisanih značenja koje se izražavaju kroz predstave o tipovima gubitnika i dobitnika. Analiza ovakvih konceptualizacija može biti od velikog značaja, jer one predstavljaju pokazatelj društvenog mišljenja o problemu gubitništva i dobitništva, i samim tim potencijalni agens usmeravanja ponašanja i delanja u postojećim delikatnim okolnostima u kojima se društvo Srbije nalazi. Pored toga, data analiza može dati doprinos sagledavanju složenosti ovog problema i pokušaju razumevanja njegove suštine.

The subject of this dissertation is identification of social conceptualizations that have been formed regarding losers and winners of the transition, by which a special and significant social dimension has been added to these phenomena. This research is supposed to demonstrate which types of losers and winners are recognized in Serbian society, and at the same time reveal discourse frames in which their perceptions and evaluations are being formed. Identification, typology and conceptualization of losers and winners will be carried out on the basis of the material that is represented by congruous electronic, media texts and readers' comments on them. Through the prism made up of these comments and media texts, I will try to access social notions, that is, to readout the conceptualizations of transitional losers and winners and discourses which shape them. The main aim of the approach devised in this way is an insight into what the messages, contained in those discourses, point at and what they are talking about. In addition to that, one more distinguished task is understanding, interpretation and explanation of constructions and ascribed meanings, which are expressed through the notions about losers and winners. The analysis of such conceptualizations may be of great significance, because they represent an indicator of social opinion about the problem of losers and winners, and therefore a potential agent of directing behavior and acting in current delicate circumstances in which Serbian society finds itself. Beside that, this analysis may give a contribution to the apprehension of the complexity of this problem and to the attempt of understanding its essence.
