Abstract
The article examines the problem of the worldview and inner experience of the so-called "average" Ukrainian person in times of historical cataclysms of anthropogenic origin, focusing attention on the periods of national catastrophes of the 20th and 21st centuries in socio-anthropological and meaningful dimensions. The author emphasizes the need to study the state of Ukrainian people during the current Russian-Ukrainian war. The purpose of this investigation is to analyze the social attitudes, experiences, beliefs and preferences of this Ukrainian (in Soviet times - the "ordinary Ukrainian") in tragic moments of history, that is, in the age of cataclysms, as well as the ways and methods of researching this problems. The article concludes that the well-being of the average person during cataclysms (catastrophes) is a state of constant stress and total fear, uncertainty and danger. The real ability of a community to survive depends on the resilience (physical and spiritual) of its citizens; their patriotism and ability to resist the enemy; a sense of love for the Motherland and the responsibility of elites; effective and professional leadership in the extraordinary condition. The study of the problem of human experience of cataclysms is one of the basic scientific problems of world socio-humanitarian studies, since the world has entered the era of active transformations, often unpredictable and uncontrolled. For modern Ukrainian studies, the problem of the experience of cataclysms by the Ukrainian "average" person turns into one of the most relevant as a security, economic, political, anthropological, etc., ultimately philosophical problem, since Ukraine today is at the epicenter of the reorganization of the global world. The study of this issue requires special attention to already existing scientific analytics and the search for new ways and methods of studying the problems of community existence.
