According to Mayan chronology, the modern era (with electronic beer openers and supercomputers in mobile phones) began on August 12, 3114 BC. er and should end on December 21, 2012 er Therefore, the coming new year will be the last for humanity. The last speech of the president, the fading sound of glasses, the sound of the chimes turning into a cacophony, treacherously warming an icy bottle. What scares us is not so much the prospect of the entire Solar System collapsing into a black hole formed after the successful Higgs Boson materialization, but rather the likelihood of meeting the next, 2013th year, in some new-formed hell, in the continuum of which there is no place for Olivier.

Holy post-Christmas days have always existed. This holiday is in our blood, slightly diluted on March 8 and our own birthday. For some aesthetes, holy day is a day of the airborne troops, a marine or a space marines. Not every holiday is celebrated by the whole country with a mandatory day off, but everyone has their own special, unlike others, reason to feel happier.
Holiday is a special element in the structure of social time. The main function of the holiday is the sociocultural integration of various communities. A variety of holidays allows multivariate types of positive integration. A festive performance of any level is built in the image of a family holiday, while attempts are being made to strengthen the integration of socio-cultural fields.

On the eve of the “global” holiday for the Russians - the new year, let's think about the future holidays? After all, it is obvious that the social structure in the era of globalization and social networks is changing significantly, the evolution of interpersonal relations is moving to a new level, which means that holidays should also become fundamentally different.
Creative task - to describe what they will be, these holidays of the future.
The example of the “holiday of the future” exists in our days. On September 11, 2009, Dmitry Medvedev signed a decree that sets a new official holiday in Russia - “The Day of the Programmer”. Professional holiday programmers celebrate the 256th day of the year. It seemed that not so many years had passed, and now this holiday is taken for granted. It is difficult to say exactly how programmers mark it, but you can dream up on this topic, stepping for several years into the future.
You can come up with an absolutely new holiday (the day of the apocalypse :), or tell about changes in established traditions. What if by 2020 they finally get rid of the trees!
