Answer:

<h3>Civil inattention.</h3>

Explanation:

According to Erving Goffman, we often come across situations in public places where we are left with another stranger for a short period of time. These situations may occur inside elevators, public transport, office buildings, or anywhere in public spaces.

During these situations it has been observed that most people would greet each other with a slight head nod or a small gesture. However, they tend to ignore the presence of each other after that encounter. This phenomenon or behavior is referred as an example of civil inattention.

This is done to show the other person that we recognize the other person's presence though not necessarily looking for any interaction.

wich statement describes the standr of living for the average russian since the fall of the soviet union
antoniya [11.8K]

After having relative prosperity during the second half of the 20th century until the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991. Citizens from Russia experimented relative economic hardship during the rest of the 90s. The government led by Boris Yeltsin was not successful in the transition of the economic model from socialism to open market capitalism.

Then came Vladimir Putin at the beginning of the 21st century. Under his regime, the Russian economy experimented a sustained growth due to the rising prices of oil. Industries like production, construction, real estate, and financial services all grew.

As a consequence of the improvement of the economy, the middle class grew as well as their income. GDP per capita (the amount of money the average Russian gains over a year) sharply rose since the beginning of Putin's regime and is barely reaching $12000 in 2017.

However,  the country still fails to score positively in regarding corruption levels and freedom of speech. As the government is constantly accused of suppressing political opposition.

This leads to describing the standard of living of the average Russian citizen as constantly improving in economic terms, but still lacking the guarantee of security and freedom of speech.
