Romantic and neotraditionalictic motifs of culture in reaction to urbanization processes in Ukrainian society
Abstract
The article is devoted to the analysis of cultural reflection on urbanization of Ukrainian society. The problem of depopulation of rural areas in the second half of the twentieth century, that has led to mass migration to the cities, is stressed. It is emphasized that these processes can be studied not only by statistics, but by the analysis of cultural phenomena, including pop songs. The attention is focused on such plots as «the exodus» of youth to the cities, maternal self-sacrifice, the attitudes of the children to their infirm mothers who remained in their abandoned homes, and etc. Critical socio-cultural and gender analysis of these texts reveals the traits of neotraditionalism, patriarchal culture and romanticism inherent to these songs. The role of the songs in the legitimating and reproduction of inequality and discrimination (city-village, women-men) is shown.
