Abstract:Magistrsko delo temelji na sociološki analizi apokaliptičnih skupin v ZDA, ki jih analitično razdeli na survivalistične in nesurvivalistične. Survivalistične skupine so tiste, ki se na apokalipso aktivno pripravljajo v veri, da bodo prav njihovi pripadniki preživeli s pomočjo učenja veščin in kopičenja materialnih dobrin. Nesurvivalistične apokaliptične skupine pa so tiste, ki pričakujejo konec sveta, vendar se na to ne pripravljajo v smislu povečevanja svojih materialnih resursov ali učenja veščin preživetja. Osredotočili smo se na spletne objave apokaliptičnih skupin obeh vrst in na pogostost njihovega objavljanja. V objavah smo iskali tri vrste elementov: maskulinost, osredotočenost na ekonomske razmere in osredotočenost na politične razmere. Poleg analize obeh skupin smo poiskali konkretne napovedi konca sveta, ki se za leta 2014, 2015, 2016 in 2017 niso uresničile, ter konkretne napovedi za leta 2018, 2019 in 2020. Ugotovili smo, da so survivalisti s spletnimi objavami precej bolj aktivni kot nesurvivalisti. Survivalistične apokaliptične skupine so tudi bolj maskuline in pogosteje omenjajo ekonomske razmere, pri nesurvivalistih pa pogosteje zasledimo politične teme. Ugotovili smo tudi, da brezposelnost in pogostost oziroma verjetnost naravnih katastrof ne vplivajo na nastanek apokaliptičnih skupin. Pri konkretnih napovedih med leti 2014 in 2020 najpogosteje zasledimo ideje o koncu sveta, kot ga poznamo danes, ki so povezane z določenimi simboli (prihod Kristusa, prihod antikrista, boj med Kristusom in Satanom, krvava luna, črna luna ipd.), 3. svetovno vojno in naravnimi katastrofami.

Title:Sociological Analysis of Survivalism in the USA
Abstract:Master's Thesis is based on sociological analysis of apocalyptic groups in the USA; moreover, it divides them in two types of groups – survivalistic and non-survivalistic. Survivalistic groups are those that actively prepare for the Apocalypse. They are certain that only their members can survive the end of the world with the help of learning survival skills and accumulating goods. Non-survivalistic groups are, on the other hand, those that expect the end of the world, however, do not prepare in the same sense as survivalists (learning skills and accumulating goods). We focused on web publications of both types of groups and the frequency of their publishing. We searched for three types of elements in their publications: masculinity, their focus on economic situation and political situation. Besides analyzing both types of groups, we found concrete predictions of the end of the world that did not come true in the past four years (2014 to 2017) and concrete predictions for the years to come (2018, 2019 and 2020). We discovered that survivalists publish many more articles and videos than non-survivalists. Survivalists are also more masculine and focus more on the economic situation, whereas non-survivalists focus more on the political situation. Furthermore, we discovered that unemployment and the probability of natural disasters do not influence the emergence of apocalyptic groups. Concrete predictions of the end of the world for the years 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020 are mostly connected with the end of the world as we know it and symbols (the uprising of the Christ, the coming of the Anti-Christ, the final battle between Christ and Satan, blood moon, black moon, etc.), WW3 and natural disasters.
Keywords:Survivalism, apocalypticism, apocalyptic groups, USA, content analysis, Apocalypse.
