New high-rise buildings are being actively built in the city; its population is increasing. Irpin attracts a large number of new residents with its green areas, affordable cost of property, and small remoteness from the metropolis. Investing money in construction, future residents expect to receive not only the living space of their own apartment but also certain conditions for comfortable living, which include legal and properly formalized utilities (electricity, water, gas), as well as the well-established management of the household. Buying housing, new dwellers possess certain ideas about the appearance of the surrounding area. The latter concerns predominantly green zones. People experience disappointment when they see residential complexes replacing gardens and parks. In cases when the expectations of newcomers about their place of residence and the quality of communal services are not fulfilled, they feel a moral right to defend the desired benefits. Nevertheless, they cannot always operate with legal mechanisms for defending their rights. Instead, they often use informal ways of interaction to achieve their goals. However, it should be emphasized that the informality, used by inhabitants of new buildings for solving problem issues, arises from informal and half-legal practices used by developers to reduce their own costs during building and construction work.

As a result of forced secularization during the Soviet period, some aspects of religiosity reproduced within local communities went through a process of “domestication” (using the term of T. Dragadze). The most widespread family rituals involved collective prayers, or Dua, including canonized religious texts and the performance of certain ritual acts. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, these collective religious practices co-existed with institutionalized forms of Islam. Today, under the influence of political repressions by the new Russian administration, these collective religious practices have taken on defned political meanings and are used by the Crimean Tatars as a manifestation of resistance and disobedience. Key words: Crimean Tatars, collective prayers, forced secularisation, Dua, political resistance.

In the 1980-90s, there was a strong consolidation movement that led to a massive return migration to the territory of their ethnic homeland. Almost since the first years of their repatriation, the Crimean Turkic Muslim community has become a prominent actor in the political, cultural, and social life of the Crimea. The presence of Crimean Tatars on the peninsula has completely changed the cultural landscape of the region, the balance of social, cultural, and political discourse. The study of sociocultural transformation processes in the region during the period of Ukrainian independence is an important research topic. In this article, we propose to consider household and socioeconomic aspects of the Crimean Tatars’ repatriation. Not only economic factors but also a sense of belonging to the place and historical memory played a significant role in the processes of reterritorialization and resettlement of returnees in the Crimea. Repatriation was followed by an economic crisis and social instability. In the early years of repatriation, migrants faced a number of problems (lack of dwelling, problems with employment, a very low level of infrastructure in compact settlements, contradiction between the legislative framework and administrative practices). This situation required rapid response and full restructuring of the community. Nevertheless, Crimean Tatars relatively quickly managed to adapt to the new situation, integrate into the Ukrainian society, and occupy a rather high social level in it. Currently, the Crimean Tatars, like other Ukrainian citizens inhabiting Crimea, face an extremely difficult situation due to the foreign aggression and loss of control over the peninsula by Ukrainian authorities.

Ethnographic examination of biologists community andits research environment provides an opportunity to look at the problem of scientific practices in nature from new perspective. In zoologist’s scientific practices natural environment is the main place where data is concentrated. For this reasons work in the field is so important for this discipline. Professional zoologists have not only find material in the field, but to be able interpret it correctly. Consequently to become a real professional it takes a long time for scientist to get experience and practical skills. The field is the place where professionalization of scientists takes place. During the work in nature circulate «tacit» knowledge from teacher to students. Work in field is very important for the shaping scientific identity and formulation of ideal form of representations of the professional group. Appealing to the problem of identity shows that despite of the all material and technical difficulties, Ukrainian scientists imagine their work as a vocation. The very idea of the purpose of their work, as the supreme value, allows scientists to continue their work and achieve results.

The research discusses the problem of interconfessional communication and traditions of sharing sacred places on the Crimean peninsula which have been ree ected both in literary sources and memories. Social and demographic changes in the 20th century (forced migrations, Soviet state policy in religion, repatriation) caused the complete extinction of interreligious practices of sharing. In recent years, Muslim shrines have obtained not only religious symbolism, but also a political meaning in the discourse of belonging to the place and historical rights for the territory between divergent social actors.
