Here they say that "almost half of Russians, 48%, want the day of national unity to have its own understandable tradition". forward. What tradition can emerge here? Let's leave aside the well-known uncertainty of the holiday - with whom is the unity, what is the unity about? What historical associations arise? So, just another day off.
Here we have to admit that everything is complicated with holiday traditions. In addition to the New Year's tree, the demonstration on May 1 (sunk into oblivion) and the military parade on May 9.
But let's believe that the survey raised a real problem, and a part of society - socially active youth for example - does not want to cool down stupidly in the middle of the week for a reason that is not clear to them. Something must probably be done.
The answer, as always, lies on the surface, but, of course, they prefer not to pay attention to it. What kind of holidays are there with "built-in traditions"? Well, a few days ago Halloween died out. No days off, no Duchanil posts about the importance and other formalities. Pumpkins, goods and popular volunteering. Or Valentine's Day. Also - Valentines, merchandise, popular initiative. And that's what Christmas/New Years is all about.
In general, it is difficult to guarantee success, but we recommend starting with good goods. Well, at least try. If you want tradition, you need an associative series. Not shirts with Minin and Pozharsky of course, you have to think about it with your head. Maybe the free mulled wine should be poured on this day - still chilly outside. You never know how many ideas there are. But that's unlikely. We have more and more posts by officials on social media. On importance, on meaning. This is how a "clear tradition" developed. PLN up to max.
