Abstract

The purpose of the article is to identify the specifics of studying representatives of the precariat and its conceptualization within the framework of Russian sociology.The article analyzes the "theoretical split" that exists in Russian sociology regarding the conceptualization of the concept of "precariat". Based on the analysis of the works of sociologists belonging to two approaches, the features characterizing the precariat as a socio-economic group and as a full-fledged social class were formulated. The authors also identified the features of the precariat shared by representatives of both approaches.At the end of the article, the formulation of the precariat as an emerging class is put forward and two aspects are highlighted that can contribute to the integration of its representatives into modern Russian society.
