CURRENT POLITICAL MAINSTREAMS OF MILITARY EDUCATION

Abstract

The problem horizon of the current state of Ukrainian military education is quite wide, and the amplitude of conceptual points of view to the development of new models of military education fluctuates within a very wide range. The analysis of theoretical and practical problems has shown the dominance of consensus on the strategic course of the state policy on NATO membership. It was determined that the modern gabitus of the political mainstream of military education today is the National Security Strategy of Ukraine, which is based on the triad of principles “deterrence-sustainability-interaction” and provides for the corresponding processes of national security through modernization of education and science to the needs of social development on the basis of the best world educational models and practices. The article reveals that the intension of military education transformation lies in changing the military education provisions in the Ukrainian legislation and updating its structure, as well as in scientific professional environment, in substantiation and elaboration of the Policy and Concept of military education development, taking into account the NATO standards. The lack of a systematic analysis of the political paradigm of professional education for information security and cyber defense specialists, directed research to identify the main political mainstreams in the training of military specialists in the field of cyber security in the conditions of digital transformation. The Ukraine Cyber Security Strategy Implementation Plan notes the intent of creating a new model for training and professional development of cyber security subjects and developing a Nationwide Cyber Literacy Program for all levels of education. It is proved that cyber awareness of military specialist in the new model of military education becomes a priority sign of his professionalism.
