Axiological Approach Research Articles

The formation of the tendency of pragmatism and business-like efficiency in the American social thought and the pedagogy in the first half of the 20th century

Introduction. The relevance of the research is connected with the need of modern Russian pedagogical science to study the patterns and features of the development of American public thought and pedagogy. The purpose of the study is to study the process of formation of the trend of pragmatism and efficiency in American public thought and pedagogy in the first half of the XX century. Methods and methodological approaches. The leading research methods are a critical analysis of the original scientific and pedagogical literature, mainly of the American authors, and a scientific and pedagogical interpretation of the information contained in the sources; comparative and historical methods, as well as an axiological approach that allows us to identify the value essence of the phenomena and facts. Results. The idea of practicality, entrepreneurship and efficiency was most clearly manifested in the United States, which was due to the rapid development of capitalism, large-scale production, mass entrepreneurship and scientific and technological progress. The fascination with efficiency increased public attention to those institutions of public life that were "suspected" of indelicacy and inefficient management. The school was declared an inefficient institution that could not stand comparison with industrial enterprises according to the criteria of efficiency and economy. Such a superficial understanding of the educational process was in the interests of those who would like to reduce the school budget, first of all, military monopolies. In American pedagogy, the definition of a busy person as a productive person making a visible and significant contribution to the common cause has appeared. Such a person has a rich imagination, is receptive to new things, shows a creative, innovative approach to solving life problems; shows responsibility in relationships with other people. A businesslike person is characterized by independence, perseverance, altruism, a high degree of self-control, a highly developed sense of understanding moral values, and an optimistic approach to life. The concepts of genius, talent, giftedness, according to J. F. Gilmore, are outdated. Instead, he proposed the term self-actualization, which, in his opinion, reflected the human desire for self-realization. Discussions. The philosophy and practice of pragmatism largely continues to determine school educational policy in the United States. One of the most important tasks of training J. E. Davis and F. M. Hetchinger proclaimed the ability to "look good in case of changes", the acquisition of skills that can be sold on the labor market. The presence of these skills should allow the individual to integrate into society, adapt to life. An important way to achieve these objectives was the revision of school curricula in the direction of their greater practical orientation. E. Thorndike supported the idea of reducing the proportion of general education subjects, referring to practical needs. He put into practice the idea that mathematics, physics, chemistry and natural science are equivalent in importance to such applied subjects as home economics, cooking, shorthand, sewing, chemistry in everyday life. As a result, the list of academic disciplines was significantly expanded in secondary school. Among them are driving a car, small aviation, personal hygiene, mental hygiene, people's relationships, child care, writing plays, amateur theater, educational radio and television. Those who tried to criticize the current situation with the content and number of subjects were declared backward people whose views do not correspond to practical America. The pragmatists J. A. Logsdon, V. M. Kerensky, M. Kig, F. Koppel, M. Kohler and others proclaimed "both the alphabet and the road to the ticket office", i.e. both knowledge and their practical application in life. At the same time, they clearly preferred teaching practical skills, even without deep theoretical knowledge. Conclusions. The philosophy and practice of pragmatism have largely determined and continue to determine the policy of school education in the United States. The scientific novelty of the study lies in a meaningful analysis of the scientific views of a number of American pragmatists, who had not previously been the subject of careful study by domestic comparative educators. At the same time, the study of the views of the leading teachers of the USA is relevant and important for Russian science due to their undoubtedly significant influence on the formation of the global educational space. The prospects for further research are connected with the study of the scientific attitudes of modern American scientists and educators.

The topic of recovery after the consequences of a full-scale invasion is currently very relevant. The digitization of cultural heritage objects has significant potential for the promotion of Ukrainian culture both within the country and beyond. This contributes to the preservation and study of history and cultural traditions, and also attracts the attention of tourists and researchers who want to learn more about the rich cultural heritage of Ukraine. The introduction of innovative approaches to the post-conflict recovery process is one of the ways to overcome the cultural crisis. Digitized cultural heritage objects are valuable information resources that enable preservation, research and promotion of cultural heritage. The purpose of the article is to outline the possibilities and prospects of creating mobile applications for the preservation of the cultural heritage of Ukraine on the example of the Kharkiv region. The research methodology is based on general scientific methods of analysis and synthesis. The phenomenological approach made it possible to investigate mobile applications as a phenomenon of modern culture. An axiological approach allows considering the valuable status of cultural heritage objects in Kharkiv and the region. Scientific novelty and practical significance: based on the material of previous projects related to the design of mobile applications and the digitization of Kharkiv's cultural heritage objects, further vectors of work have been determined. Conclusions: thus, in this study, we considered the possibilities and prospects of creating the functionality of mobile applications using digitized 3D objects for the preservation of the cultural heritage of Ukraine on the example of the Kharkiv region. The research highlighted functionality in the design of mobile applications with digitized 3D cultural objects: augmented reality (AR), social interaction, navigation, historical context, multimedia, gamification, interactivity, virtual tours and museums, personalization, accessibility.

Цинизм как базовая ценность современного англоязычного комического дискурса

The work is aimed at identifying and analyzing the main humorous characteristics of the axiological concept of cynicism. The relevance of the study is predetermined by the fact that cynicism is considered to be an important value of humorous discourse. This work develops an axiological approach for studying humor which consists of defining the reaction of the audience to cynicism (humorous or non-humorous, positive or negative), distinguishing value features of the axiological concept of cynicism (based on literature on cynicism, definitions in dictionaries, and analysis of data.), analyzing the language means used to express the axiological concept of cynicism, determining the conceptual opposition of the axiological concept of cynicism in a particular context, determining the archetype of the corresponding character to assess the level of possible empathy of the audience for a humorous object. The data analyzed in this article comprise recordings and scripts of more than 70 stand-up specials which are more than 4500 minutes long and more than 500 episodes of various sitcoms which are more than 12,500 minutes long. The research showed that in many cases manifestation of cynicism was accompanied by laughter and moderate applauding while in most cases cynicism caused only laughter. Cynicism is aimed at ridiculing such anti-values as insincerity, shame, stupidity, lust. The main cognitive features of the axiological concept of cynicism within the framework of humorous discourse include honesty and rudeness. In its extreme form (dark humor), cynicism can be considered as a significant lack of humanity. The research also found that the axiological concept of cynicism within the framework of humorous discourse is actualized through insulting people, describing taboo processes and violating the norms and principles of social interaction. Insulting is carried out through a humiliating assessment of actions or states of a person, a true designation of a person and a response to socially disapproved behavior. The main taboo topics are masturbation, deurination, flatulence, death, and declaring sexual intention. The main cases of violating norms and principles of social interaction include deviation from standard patterns of behavior and ridiculing cliched statements. The axiological concept of cynicism is usually expressed through obscene words, insulting words, verbs denoting corresponding processes, new metaphors, similes, irony, etc. Moreover, in modern English sitcoms some of main characters behave cynically.

КУЛЬТУРНОЕ САМООПРЕДЕЛЕНИЕ ЛИЧНОСТИ В ПОЛИКУЛЬТУРНОМ МИРЕ НОВЫХ ВЫЗОВОВ И НОВОЙ ОТВЕТСТВЕННОСТИ ПЕДАГОГА-НАСТАВНИКА

The article focuses on finding ways and means of cultural self-determination and self-realization of a personality in the global multicultural world, carried out in terms of new challenges to leadership, new requirements of cultural authentic communication, and speech thinking, and new responsibility in the spaces of continuous professional training as a dominant value. The purpose of the article is to substantiate the axiological approach to the formation of a multicultural picture of the world of the personality in the aspect of new requirements and new responsibilities in the event-based information and educational environment of intensive interaction. Methodology and methods of research include a critical analysis of the content and technological aspects of the axiology of education – training and education, the results of which become the basis for cultivating the value aspects of a culture oriented event environment of the continuous professional development of a mentor in terms of the educational paradigm with an emphasis on the development of spiritual values and moral needs of the personality. At the same time, we associate cultural self-determination of the personality and its spiritual and moral formation with the formation of a linguistic personality in the global space of multicultures and multilingualism of the educational process and education as a whole. The positive results of the author’s longitudinal approbation and implementation of the theoretical foundations of cultural self-determination of the personality are used as a mechanism for developing a value model for the formation of a lingua didactic readiness of a foreign language teacher to implement authentic communication within the continuous professional development of leadership qualities of a teacher-mentor. The scientific significance includes a description of the application of the principles of the axiology of education in the development of the parameters of the educational environment of the interaction within the framework of a regional project to provide unified scientific and methodological support for teachers-mentors. The theoretical significance is in clarifying the concept of psychological balance as the basis for cultivating the didactic readiness of a teacher as mentoring the youth. Practical significance is in didactic and methodological reports for creating the conditions for cultural communication within additional professional programs for teachers. The results of the study. The value dominants of modeling the communicative strategies and tactics of mentoring in the space of psychological balance and positive interaction for the purpose of cultural self-determination and linguistic/speech-making activity of a mentor as a leader who responds to new challenges and new requirements of the current multicultural world are determined. In conclusion the paper states that cultural self-determination of the personality as a continuous process of linguistic/speech-making self-realization can take place at three levels – Content, Technology, and Criteria/Evaluation. This process is possible if the leading principle of the value-significant culture & historic theory of L.S. Vygotsky, regarding the role of thinking and speech in the intellectual architectonics of the teacher’s activity is observed. Leadership, communication skills as productive speech/creativity and continuity in training and professional education are the leading factors in forming the system of didactic readiness for cultural self-determination of the personality in terms of spiritual and moral education of the youth.

Administrative and Legal Restrictions on the Right to Disseminate Information in the Context of Constitutional Values of Legal Freedom and State Security

The article deals with the problems of establishing administrative legal restrictions on the right to disseminate information in the context of such constitutional values as legal freedom of law and state security. The purpose of the study was to assess the institution of administrative responsibility for violating the order of dissemination of information from the point of view of these constitutional values. The subject of the study was legal relations in the field of implementation of administrative responsibility for violation of the order of dissemination of information, and the object of the study was legal doctrine, legal norms and judicial practice. In order to achieve the research goal in conjunction with general scientific and special scientific methods (analysis, synthesis, formal legal, interpretation of law), the author applied an axiological approach to the phenomena under study. The scientific novelty of this study lies in the fact that the problem of restricting the right to free dissemination of information through administrative liability mechanisms is considered through the prism of not only its possible restrictions for the security of the state, but also in the context of the correlation of freedom of information dissemination and state security, as the most important constitutional values. The author formulates the following conclusions. The establishment of administrative responsibility in the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation for violation of the order of dissemination of information is necessary to ensure state security. However, the implementation of the mechanism of the studied type of administrative responsibility should be carried out in a balanced manner, taking into account both the interests of ensuring state security and ensuring legal guarantees of the constitutional right of everyone to freely disseminate information.

Аксиологический статус государственно-правовой доктрины русского консерватизма

The features of the axiological status of the state-legal doctrine of Russian conservatism, which have an impact on national algorithms of value-motivated organization of legal activity, are considered. It is proved that the conservative doctrine represents the interrelation of irrational legal images and rational ideas originating from religious institutions and state-legal traditions of society, based on the concepts of the priority of ethical principles over formal legal grounds. It is proved that the Russian legal thinking differs significantly from the Western one, which is most fully embodied in the mode of domestic conservatism with its inherent theonomic ethics and metaphysics of unity. Based on the analysis of the domestic legal tradition, the definition of conservative legal values is formed as conditioned by the cultural and civilizational originality of ideas about legal reality, expressed in legal consciousness and legal culture, perceived in unity with moral values. The aim of the study is to establish the axiological status of the state-legal doctrine of Russian conservatism. The methodological basis includes the use of specially legal methods: historical, formal-logical, comparative, at the same time, the historical-legal nature of the work necessitated the involvement of theoretical-legal interpretation and evaluation of state-legal ideas, structural and comparative methods. It is stated that the axiological potential of the state-legal doctrine of Russian conservatism lies in the convergence of the modes of morality and law, orientation to law enforcement with congruent interaction of legal and moral regulators. It is argued that within the framework of the axiological approach and in the context of taking into account the legal tradition of Russia, it is possible both to overcome the inertia of the modern theory of law and to increase the effectiveness of legal regulation.

Культурно-правовой феномен В.Г. Баева (в память об ученом, преподавателе и общественном деятеле)

The main stages of the life path of Doctor of Law, Candidate of Historical Sciences, Professor Valery Grigoryevich Baev are highlighted. His contribution to the development of education in the Tambov region was noted both in the course of scientific, pedagogical activities, and as a result of administrative work in state and local government bodies. Attention is paid to the applied V.G. Baev pedagogical methods based on the interactive format of the relationship between the teacher and the student, the involvement in the educational process of the most prominent representatives of practical jurisprudence, as well as Russian and foreign scientists, the use of works of fiction and cinematographic art to discuss ethical issues of professional activity of a lawyer. In particular, it was noted that practical classes became a platform for scientific discussions, as well as discussions of ethical problems of the legal profession, when each student in the group was a participant in them, and the axiological approach to the study of law formed an awareness of its unconditional authority and significance, which happened through acquaintance with the world masterpieces of domestic and foreign literature and cinematography, helped education of a comprehensively developed personality. The scientific works of the scientist devoted to the peculiarities of German constitutionalism of the second half of the 19th – first half of the 20th century are analyzed.

Axiosphere of sister cities: Is it possible to transmit cultural memory?

The article is devoted to understanding the institution of sister cities in the context of the developing international crisis, when urban diplomacy, successful practices of interstate civil cooperation, perceived for decades as unshakable and value-oriented, were subjected to “suspension” or “cancellation”. On the other hand, the territorial changes in 2022, the entry of new territories into Russia and the establishment of twinning relations between Russian cities and the cities of Donbass give the institution of sister cities a new meaning and important political and cultural significance. The formation and development of the axiosphere of twin cities is seen as an important factor in the development of interregional cooperation and the “binding” of Russian territories. The interdisciplinary of this study is expressed in addressing not only issues of public policy, social philosophy, cultural studies, ethics, economics, but also in the desire to take into account the specifics of the developing digital society, while the authors consider regional governance issues from the position of an axiological approach. The working with cultural memory today can act as a resource for building an effective cultural policy in the region, but the construction of new meanings and relationships, images and priorities for future development is no less significant. The authors note the importance of civil initiatives and movements, social media, whose activities are aimed at maintaining the social sphere and creating a digital environment of trust, at intensifying urban, civil cooperation in the network as a counterbalance to the aggressive anti-Russian, Russophobic network practices used today.

Value-Oriented Language Education in the Modern World: Modern Challenges and Critical Issues of Higher School Linguodidactics

This paper critically reflects on the perspectives of developing value- oriented communicative education through co-learned languages and cultures which is designed with the view to the sociocultural context of human existence in a postglobal world burdened with geopolitical confrontation, political and economic conflicts, proxy wars, endless fake information attacks on the individual’s world vision. It gives an insight into the transdisciplinary basis for implementing an axiological approach to value-oriented language-and culture education as an outcome of the author’s transdisciplinary analysis of the Humanities researches and didactic reading of some draft documents related to Russia’s policy on preserving its traditional spiritual and moral values in modern society. It also discusses the purposes of introducing problem-oriented educational environment that may give Russian students an opportunity to master university disciplines in an innovative way in the classroom, and outside the university classroom, to be much involved into public speaking activities on critical issues of modern life and its values, as well as into research cooperation and science promotion in innovative areas of scientific knowledge. The reader’s attention is also drawn to some ways of creating a value-oriented and culture-bound research environment that helps to develop students’ competences needed to be able to act as a promoter of the dialogue of cultures and civilizations in their professional life, able to preserve cultural heritage and counteract modern cultural vandalism, cultural imperialism and cancel culture whenever she or he comes across it.

PHILOSOPHICAL FEATURES OF RESENTMENT IN THE CONDITIONS OF RUSSIAN ARMED AGGRESSION AGAINST UKRAINE

Objective. The objective of the article is to determine the ontological and socio-cultural features of resentment in the conditions of Russian armed aggression. Methods. A systematic method is used to study the main components of resentment; a concrete-historical method is applied when studying various historical and philosophical features of the study of resentment; the method of comparative analysis is used when considering resentment as a phenomenon and studying its Russian features; an economic method is applied for analyzing ways of production and their influence on the material level of Russian citizens; an axiological approach is applied to determine the consequences of moral and ethical issues of resentment; the moral and ethical method is valid when considering both resentment itself and for determining social consequences as a result of the full formation of resentment thinking. The scientific principles of the research are the principle of objectivity (when analyzing the results of the resentment process), determinism (used to study resentment as a phenomenon in general and used to analyze the social consequences of economic policy), systematicity (the general presentation of the material based on the holistic perception of resentment in the system of individual, social, international and cultural norms). Results. The study analyzes the features of the emergence, formation and specifics of the manifestation of resentment as an individual and social phenomenon. An attempt is made to analyze the initial factors of Russian resentment and its results in interaction with the international community. Therefore, modern military and social problems call for the research of resentment, for a deeper and systematic study of this phenomenon, in order to understand the configuration of the enemy of Ukraine, and the specifics of his behavior. The results may have prospects in the understanding of such concepts as the limits of aggression, the means of influencing the consciousness of the people, and the way of solving existing confrontations. In general, the philosophical analysis of resentment as a phenomenon provides an opportunity to realize its belonging and to determine its presence as one of the key features of the mass consciousness of the entire Russian people. The analyzed concepts demonstrate not just the essence of the phenomenon of resentment, but reveal the peculiarities of the formation of the idea of an external enemy for the Russian Federation, the motives of extreme actions and measures through a deep analysis of the formation of the phenomenon of resentment and the processes of its rooting in the minds of people, possible scenarios of the future to which the aggressor is capable of resorting.

Terminal Values of the Determinant of Leveling Social Inequality at the Regional Level

Introduction. The article draws attention to the historically existing problem of social inequality. It is noted that the development of a technogenic society objectively requires a moral dominant in solving the issue under study. The purpose of the article is to substantiate, within the framework of the axiological approach, the connection between terminal values and social inequality, in particular at the regional level. Materials and Methods. The theories of functionalism, conflict, the reputation of leading researchers of the problem of social inequality are the theoretical and methodological basis, as well as the theory of values by the American axiologist M. Rokeach. Statistical-documentary method and social survey data are used as a toolkit. Results. The article argues that the application of the analyzed approach is an effective way to level social inequality. The main factors of inequalities (health, education, well-being) associated directly with human capital are highlighted. Analysis of the processes of social inequality using the example of the Republic of Mordovia when considering the evolution of four vital areas (income, health, employment, and education) depending on gender and age and territory made it possible to reveal the confusion of legitimate and illegitimate grounds for inequality. Discussion and Conclusion. The analysis of social and territorial inequality made it possible to present a multidimensional model that includes certain innovations at the methodological level, providing a choice of indicators that clarify social realities, in particular in the Republic of Mordovia, in four areas (health, income, employment and education).

Formation of professional and valuable orientations among future specialists of Technical High schools while studying the disciplines of the humanitarian cycle

The article analyzes and summarizes modern approaches to the formation of professional and valuable orientations among future construction workers during the study of humanitarian disciplines at the higher technical educational institution (as an example of the Donbas National Academy of Civil Engineering and Architecture). The authors substantiate the essence of the concepts “value”, “valuable orientations”, “professional and valuable orientations”, then clarify the content of the concept of “professional and valuable orientations of future specialists”, outline the methods and forms of the educational process, which ensure the formation of professional and valuable orientations among future specialists of construction specialties. The article emphasizes the idea that the study of humanitarian disciplines in the context of the formation ofprofessional and valuable orientations among future specialists should take into account three pedagogical conditions: an axiological approach, a system of pedagogical technologies (imitation learning methods, electronic educational tools, cognitive technology) and extracurricular work as well.

Literary Prizes as a Factor of Overcoming the Crisis of Culture: Media and Socio-Communication Aspect

Introduction. In the context of the cultural crisis and related social disorders, the issue of overcoming negative trends in the cultural environment is becoming more and more urgent. One of such negative trends is the increased influence of commercial factors on the internal processes of cultural self-regulation. The study analyzed the institutional factors of reproduction of the values of mass culture on the example of the literary sphere and examined the potential of the institute of literary awards in overcoming negative trends in the literary environment. Literary prizes are understood both as a social institution (literary awarding) and as a factor in the development of modern literature. The objective aspect of literary contests is evaluated as a possible condition for their use to overcome crisis trends in culture. Methodology. The article relies on classical methods of scientific research (analysis, comparison, abstraction, deduction, synthesis). Also, in the course of the study, the authors employed the methodology of structural functionalism. In addition, the study uses an axiological approach. Results. The article substantiates the point of view according to which the processes of literature development associated with the activities of publishing houses and online literary portals are largely due to commercial factors, which determines the orientation towards mass literary preferences. At the same time, the importance of literary awards as a social elevator for a novice writer is noted, and the potential of the institute of literary awards associated with the possibility of purposeful impact on the field of literature associated with the stimulation of certain thematic and genre areas is noted. Discussion. We assessed the significance of the theoretical model describing the indirect influence of literary prizes on social processes, and noted the debatable nature of the issue of priority directions in the development of literature through the organization of literary prizes.

Axiological guidelines for studying the problems of teacher training at higher education institutions in dissertations on pedagogy

Introduction. The future result of the upbringing of the younger generation and, accordingly, the future of our country depend on the values and attitudes to the profession, and value orientations of graduates of pedagogical universities. The article presents the analysis of the problem of axiologization of teacher training at university in the context of reforming teacher education. The importance of the study of this problem in the methodological context is due to the need for methodological reflection of existing scientific developments in order to identify axiological guidelines for teacher training at university in the context of the requirements of the axiological approach methodology. Materials and Methods. The study presents the analysis of 125 dissertation abstracts on pedagogy, with the total number of 8400 abstracts [electronic library of dissertations and abstracts on disserCat – www.dissercat.com ; scientific library "Science / Pedagogy" – www.nauka-pedagogika.com ); the dissertation themes include axiological problems of training future teachersat university for the period of 1990-2022. The undertaken research was carried out on the basis of the axiological approach methodology, its main functions and methods. There are 2 aspects of the study and analysis of research materials: research issues and research methods. Results. Tendencies in the choice of research issues and the quality of using the axiological approach methods have been revealed. The specifics of the research devoted to axiological problems of teacher training at university at various stages of reformation of the teacher education system have been discussed. The perspectives of axiologization of pedagogical education have been formulated. Discussion and Conclusions. Based on the analysis of the obtained data, it has been concluded that there is a significant theoretical and methodological basis for the axiologization of the educational process and educational activities in universities training modern teachers. There are two types of problems that need to be addressed: problems of implementation of the axiological approach in pedagogy, associated with the need to understand the essence, role and significance of the axiological approach, its main concepts, content and mechanisms of its implementation; problems of axiologization of pedagogical education in applied research.

An Axiology of Weak Areas: The Estimation of an Index of Abandonment for the Definition of a Cognitive Tool to Support the Enhancement of Inland Areas in Sicily

The marginalization of areas due to a progressive increase in social, material, economic, and infrastructural vulnerability is a phenomenon that afflicts many countries today, and it is growing rapidly. Agenda 2030, in highlighting the need to identify measures to counter this phenomenon, has promoted the development of a growing awareness of addressing this issue that cannot be postponed. With this in mind, in Italy, a map of inland areas was produced by the Interministerial Committee for Economic Planning and Sustainable Development (ICEPSD), a publication aimed at measuring the extent of the phenomenon and support the development of specific strategies that collectively define the National Strategy for Inland Areas (NSIA). In this study, starting from a critical analysis of the classification of areas in the National Strategy for Inner Areas, we propose a new cognitive tool of the phenomenon of abandonment developed from the perspective of an axiological approach of marginal areas. This tool is based on the mapping of an abandonment index Ia on QGIS with reference to the clusters of municipalities identified based on the quartiles of its values. This index was estimated as an aggregate weighted sum of the components identified because of the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) used to analyze the indicators of different forms of territorial capital of weak areas.

ВЕСТЕРНИЗАЦИЯ КАК УГРОЗА РОССИЙСКОМУ НАЦИОНАЛЬНОМУ МЕНТАЛИТЕТУ В КОНТЕКСТЕ ЗАЩИТЫ НАЦИОНАЛЬНОЙ БЕЗОПАСНОСТИ ГОСУДАРСТВА

The purpose of this study is to examine the detrimental impact of Westernization processes on the national mentality as an integral part of the national security of the state. The following scientific approaches and methods were used: axiological approach, historical approach, as well as analysis and political forecasting. Modern Russia is facing a difficult task - to protect its national interests and defend its independence in the international arena, as well as to reverse the processes of Westernization that have begun inside the country and minimize the negative consequences from them. The author concludes that only an equitable dialogue between all states is able to form a just world order. The unipolar world is outdated, demonstrating its practical inconsistency. And Westernization as a synonym for globalization (which, incidentally, the modern world needs) has not resonated with many countries of the non-Western world.

PHILOSOPHICAL UNDERSTANDING OF THE PROBLEM OF PERSONAL HEALTH IN THE INFORMATION AND EDUCATIONAL SPACE IN THE CONTEXT OF MASS MEDIA INFLUENCE

The article provides a philosophical understanding of the problem of personal health in the information and educational space in the context of mass media influence. The importance of disclosing the methodological foundations for applying the principles of health philosophy in modern conditions is determined. The interrelation of the problem of personal health in the information and educational space and issues of ethics and morality is revealed. It is proved that with the emergence of new technologies and means of communication, people face challenges and threats associated with the negative impact of the digital environment on their physical and mental health. The problems of education and personal health intersect at the level of the general process of human development in the process of unlocking one’s inner potential. It is proved that achieving health is impossible without the use of self-knowledge, self-observation, and self-control skills in educational practice. The importance of valeology and valeosophy in the formation of a new branch of philosophical knowledge - the philosophy of health - is revealed. The philosophy of health, realized within the modern information and educational space, offers a way of knowing a person through the category of "health", which reveals a person as a conscious, responsible being capable of managing psycho-emotional and physical state. The close connection between personal health, the process of informatization of education and the formation of information culture of educational subjects is revealed. It is proved that the educational aspects of the study of personal health are associated with the formation of its meaningful life priorities, the introduction of an axiological approach to the formation of health at the level of educational practices. The importance of media literacy in the development of information and media culture, health-saving technologies of using electronic media in the educational space as thebasis for the formation of value priorities of the individual in the information and educational space is revealed. The systemic, holistic, personality-oriented, axiological and cultural approaches to understanding the essence of health are revealed. The necessity of personality formation in the unity of spiritual, mental and physical aspects of health is determined.

Study of Axiology in Scientific Field and Works

The article is devoted to prevalence of axiological approaches in all areas of research. At first, axiology was a subject of philosophical study and evaluation. Our research indicates that it later studied in a variety of different disciplines, including physics, chemistry, sociology, linguistics, and literature. Additionally, it is crucial to carefully address topics like linguoaxiological methodologies, synchronic and diachronic features of axiology, and their adherence to the national culture and values when analyzing translations of hagiographic literature. The axiological approach to the study of hagiographic literature in translation studies degree of alternativeness in the context in the target language of the words of national culture, religion, Islamic morality etc.
