TRADITIONAL PRACTICES OF SHORIAN LIFE-SUPPORT IN THE CONTEXT OF CHANGING ETHNO-CULTURAL ENVIRONMENT
The authors used the data of ethno-social monitoring to analyze the current socio-economic situation of rural groups of Shors in the Tashtagol district of the Kemerovo region. The research focused on maintaining their traditional forms of life and integration in the structure of the modern economy. The study revealed the complex nature of currently existing Shorian life-support models, combining both traditional and innovative features. The authors discuss the main factors contributing to the collapse of traditional cultural practices of an indigenous ethnic group in the conditions of its integration into a larger society.
