This article deals with the Basmachi movement in the context of the problems of relations between the Soviet authorities and the broad Muslim masses (on the example of Kyrgyzstan in the 1920s.). From the very beginning of its existence, the Soviet government, right up until its collapse, pursued a dualistic policy towards Muslims. In difficult conditions for itself, Soviet government showed great flexibility, and at the time of its reinforcement – rigidity. This situation is observed in the 1920sin the history of Kyrgyzstan. Under the conditions of a new change of power (October 1917), the liquidation of the “Kokand Autonomy” (February 1918), the Soviets’ blow to the Islamic principles of the social order aroused resentment among Muslims. By closing the mosques and madrassas, liquidating the vacufic lands, depriving the ulema of the right to analyze civil disputes, the Soviet authorities set themselves against virtually all the Muslim population of the region. This ultimately led to the activation of basmachism as the sharpest reaction of the broad Muslim masses to the policy of large-scale terror of the Soviet power. Expressing its flexibility, the Soviet authorities during this period for some time made concessions to Muslims, grantingthem religious freedom, but in the future again toughened it. At the same time, the use of the Muslim ideology, the slogan “For Islam”, the declaration of “gazavat{ against the Bolsheviks by the heads of Basmachi movements in the south of Kyrgyzstan (Zhanybek Kazy Sagynbaev, Aitmerik Toktomandzhiev, Gaiyp Pansat Abdurasulov, Adi Khodzhaev, Osmon Dzhumabaev, Rustam Ishan, etc.) played a negative role in the continued existence of Islam in Soviet Kyrgyzstan.

The methodological basis for studying the activities of national organizations is the principles of a systematic approach.

The problems of forming the organizational structure of national public associations, as well as the nature of the reflection of their activities in the media, have not been studied enough.

The article presents the results of a study of the psychological characteristics of adaptability and methods of behavior in conflict of young people studying in the first year of higher education. As psychodiagnostic methods, self-assessment tests of socio-psychological and emotional-activity adaptability were used, as well as a questionnaire to determine the behavior style in a conflict. The generated indicators of emotional and activity adaptability of freshmen contribute to their use of the «compromise» strategy in case of interpersonal conflicts, and high values of socio-psychological adaptability optimize the choice of the «cooperation» strategy and hinder the «avoidance» behavior when resolving conflict situations. The results of the study can be used by various structures and departments of universities to organize psychological and pedagogical support for the adaptation of freshmen.

The article is devoted to history, development, conceptual system of Neohumboldtian language theory as well as its ideological foundations. It was one of the most important linguistic theories of 20th-50th of XX century. The evolution of this linguistic theory is shown in circumstances of national-socialist totalitarian state. The different Neohumboldtian linguists have different relations with the nazism ideology. The head of this approach, J. L. Weisgerber, tried not to contact with nazism and he did not support Hitler’s regime. In another hand, G. Schmidt-Rohr, H. Brinkmann, for example, tried to “justify” a nazism racial myth in terms of linguistics. It concludes that the national-socialistic racial myth was founded on the “perverted” reception of the main ideas of German historical-comparative linguistics of XIX century.
