A brief description of the historical and legal basis of inclusion in Russia is also given. The authors note that in higher education institutions inclusive education is still at the stage of formation and that for its successful implementation it is necessary to comprehend the problem and create a methodological basis.

The article discusses the possibilities of implementing the model of subject-language integrated learning in higher education institutions, and the authors focus on their professional experience in implementing this model in Southern Federal University for undergraduates. The authors managed to highlight in detail the working options of CLIL, taking into account the specifics of the modern labor market. The authors conclude that the presented technology can and should be applied in practice while observing the principle of feasibility in the perception of professional content in a foreign language by the target audience. This approach requires the teacher to be flexible in the development of such disciplines, since their subject content is adapted in accordance with the language level of the students.

In this paper, the authors attempt to consider ethnographic approaches to the study of language policy issues, in detail, with an emphasis on various angles of modeling the language situation in the traditional and innovative ethnographic paradigm. The paper also provides a strong case for the effectiveness of this approach in measuring. forecasting and designing the ideal and real language situation in the regions which are of interest to the researcher. A number of examples are presented that convincingly illustrate the potential of ethnographic modeling. The authors are the first to present the opposition of the emic perspective to the ethical one, which has found its graphic embodiment in the model proposed by the authors. Moreover, the ethnographic model is an ideal tool for monitoring feedback when studying the functioning of closed forms of language policy, as well as for tracking various consequences of practical measures in the field of language.

This article highlights conceptual models that contribute to assessing the effectiveness of language policy from historical perspective. The use of the comparative historical approach has allowed us to identify the most effective forms of language policy in the modern national situational context. The authors place a special emphasis in the article on the critical analysis of a number of historical models that have long acted as the main tool for assessing the effectiveness of language policy in the West. The novelty of the article lies in the discovery of new modes of measuring the effectiveness of the principles of language policy and planning applied in practice. The article also make sa strong case for understanding language as an active means of social reality in all the diversity of its forms and relationships.

The issues of language policy, which are the focus of attention of the authors of the article, invariably attract specialists in our country and abroad. In order to understand the role of language in the life of society, it is necessary to study this problem from different angles. The authors propose to look at the designated problem from the standpoint of discourse analysis, which allows us to get out of some methodological uncertainty, forming a more or less clear picture of possible linguistic problems in multi-ethnic regions. The models presented by the authors within the framework of the theory of discourse help to visualize various dimensions of topical issues of language policy.In this sense, this article is an attempt to conceptually answer a number of fundamental questions that inevitably arise in multilingual societies, and try to use the answers obtained to relieve the "linguistic tension" characteristic of these communities.

The contemporary situation associated with the mass introduction of digital technologies into the educational process makes it necessary to rethink the traditional model of teaching of almost all disciplines of higher educational institutions, including foreign languages. This article describes a new educational environment , designed to improve the quality of teaching foreign languages in universities, as well as the development of the conceptual model of professional training of foreign language. The article presents the reasons for the relevance of this direction in higher education at the moment. The main contradictions faced by the modern educational system in the field of teaching foreign languages are also considered. The authors ' model of professional training is meant to overcome these contradictions to some extent by means of a foreign language, taking into consideration the case of Southern Federal University.

The goal of the paper is to consider the major ways of word formation in the modern English language and to analyse some of the word-building models, which have emerged relatively recently. As the material for the paper we have collected modern cognitive-semantic studies, Russian and foreign research works devoted to brand new words in English, lexical data from native speakers and the authors’ observation as well as the notes made during the visits of Great Britain in 2010-2020.

The relevance of this study is associated with the fact that issues of effective language policy and language planning are an integral part of national policy for any multicultural community. In the framework of this work, the authors attempted to present a multidimensional model of the typology of language policy, with the emphasis on political foundations that determine the goals of language policy and planning. The idea of ​​maintaining the official status of the language and its optional coincidence with the real status seems to us relevant for understanding the essence of language policy. The authors believe that the main object of language policy, regardless of how ideological slogans sound, is not so much the language itself as the groups of its actual and potential speakers. Language planning decisions determine the nature of power relations between different ethnic groups within the same multicultural community. Although today there is no universal ideally structured model of language policy, the practical value of the multidimensional model of language policy proposed by the authors is that it allows you to take into account which political goals, whose interests and values ​​underlie the planning and implementation of the principles of language planning.

This article attempts to present the author’s symbolic model of the language, with an emphasis on the practical value of the model for resolving language conflicts. A weighty justification is given for the possibility of a symbolic interpretation of practically any phenomena and objects of reality, which can serve as a methodological key to decoding a single sociocultural code. Such an approach may indicate the discovery of a new vector in understanding the nature of language conflicts. In the model below, you can see many ideas that can provide a rich methodological arsenal of great heuristic power in the field of resolving various kinds of language conflicts

In the paper the authors attempt to present the author’s model of reproduction of social scenarios from the prism of the interaction of language with social culture, and also a weighty rationale for the practical value of this model is given, which can serve as a methodical key to decoding whole blocks of social space perception. Such an approach may indicate the discovery of new modes in understanding social reality. Although the interpretation of the facts of a language is characterized by methodological difficulties, such a vision can help identify, on an empirical level, changes in the sociocultural sphere, as well as trace the dynamics of social scenarios of perception of reality by different categories of the population

This article reveals the scientific and theoretical approaches to the study of social issues in the language context. The authors attempt to present a two-dimensional model of giving the meaning to the modern verbal space. This model offers insights into the process of the formation of social scenarios that are fixed in the language space. In addition, the model developed by the authors provides a researcher with a complete picture of the dynamics of social processes in society, represented by addressing the phenomenon of language as a universal socio-cultural code
