Axiological paradigm in the Russian picture of the world (based on F. M. Dostoevsky’s novel "The Brothers Karamazov")

The article defines the concept of "axiological paradigm" in its broad and narrow senses. Additionally, it considers axiological paradigm types, describes units with value-expressed content belonging to different levels. The characterisation of the anthropocentric paradigm of the conceptual field of the axiological paradigm is formed on the basis of the identified genetic semes and sense-making principles. They reflect the types of human relationships with reality and unreality and determine the boundaries of the core and peripheral zones of the field. Axiological meanings are conveyed primarily by verbs, nouns, and adjectives since these categories are the main expressors of the internal properties and semantic features of a particular conceptual field. Qualitative-quantitative differences in meanings are reflected both in the axiological paradigm and in the literary text: the creation of the lexical semantic field "Value", the use of linguistic units characterising material, intellectual, and spiritual values. The concepts "Faith", "Family", "Honour" dominate the linguo-cognitive axiological paradigm. They reveal the relationship between language, thinking, and communication. In the Russian picture of the world, the dominating moral and spiritual values not only convey the attitude towards God, but also become a qualitative characteristic of man. The analysis of the axiological paradigm in the Russian world picture is performed using the text of F. M. Dostoevsky’s novel "The Brothers Karamazov". The narrator devotes his careful attention to the establishment of moral values, the religious and philosophical beliefs of the characters in the novel, as well as their relationships and conflicts which are based on these values.

ОТРАЖЕНИЕ ОБРАЗОВ НАЦИОНАЛЬНОЙ КАРТИНЫ МИРА В ПОЭЗИИ ОЛЖАСА СУЛЕЙМЕНОВА

The article is devoted to the study of such topical issue as ethnic distinctness of works written by translingual authors in the context of the value paradigm of the national view of the world. The notion of “national view of the world” is characterized from the point of view of traditionalism and dynamism of its content. The article considers peculiarities of transculturalism and translingualism and pays special attention to the problem of bilingual and multilingual creative personality’s ethnic self-identification. The author also analyzes the notion “image of linguoculture” and studies the significance of Kazakh linguocultural images in the process of transferring the national content of life and its axiological meanings. The study is based on the material of the poetic discourse of Olzhas Suleymenov. As a result of contextual analysis of the poetic texts of the Kazakh poet, linguistic and cultural images reflecting fragments of the Kazakh national picture of the world were revealed. The article presents objectified images of the Kazakh linguistic culture in lyrical texts, which reflect national customs and traditions, images of the historical past of the Kazakh steppes, traditional images of Kazakh folklore and literature, proper names, objects of national life, cuisine, clothing, crafts of the Kazakhs. As the analysis showed, the translingual poetic creativity of the classic of modern Kazakh literature contributes to the formation of the paradigm of cultural values of the Kazakh national worldview

Переводческие стратегии сохранения имплицитно выраженных аксиологических смыслов художественного произведения (на материале южнокорейских стихотворений и их переводов на английский язык)

The current research is dedicated to identifying axiological meanings implicitly expressed in a text which is due to its specific semantic organization (unique cultural content, culturally conditioned way of sending and receiving information). The article explores possibilities for cultural and pragmatic adaptation during the translation of such axiological meanings. The aim of this research is to uncover basic translation strategies of allocation of values encoded in the text culture. The scientific uniqueness of the research lies in the fact that in linguistics and Translation Studies, the possibilities of linguistic and cultural translation of axiological meanings, implicitly expressed in a text in an Eastern language (South Korean), to a Western language (English) have been demonstrated for the first time, which is due to cardinal differences of dominant perception in Eastern and Western cultures. Acquired results have shown that in the process of translation the “invisible” part of the text’s cultural content is transmitted by means of strategies of elimination of national and cultural specifics (skipping, compensation, substitution) and explication of national and cultural specifics (in-text explanations, translator’s comments, as well as bilingual publications with linguacultural information).

Interethnic tolerance of modern students

The paper considers the problem of interethnic tolerance in individuals. The theoretical analysis of the scientific literature shows that interethnic tolerance is an important indicator of the culture of international relations, has a deep axiological meaning, and is closely related to the value perceptions of the individual. The aggravation of interethnic issues in the youth student environment causes local conflicts, xenophobia, manifestations of nationalism, chauvinism, incitement to ethnic hatred, enmity, and intolerance between representatives of different nationalities. In this regard, the difficulty of developing interethnic tolerance when working with the younger generation is of particular importance, which makes it necessary to form a personal social position for young people and raise their level of interethnic culture. The purpose of our work is to study the individual psychological features of the manifestation of interethnic tolerance in a person. The psychodiagnostic complex consisted of the “Tolerance Index” and the “16 Personality Factor Questionnaire” by R. Cattell. The correlation analysis allowed us to confirm the existence of significant relationships between the indicators of interethnic tolerance and personality factors. The qualitative analysis and construction of profiles allowed us to provide psychological characteristics of individuals with different levels of the general indicator of interethnic tolerance.

АВТОКОММУНИКАЦИЯ КАК КРИТИКА СОВРЕМЕННОГО ФИЛОСОФСКОГО ПСИХОАНАЛИЗА

Contemporary philosophical psychoanalysis is increasingly turning to mythological stories in order to explain the phenomenon of autocommunication as a constant loss of self and encounter with self. The relevance of the article is determined by the complex superimposition of such mythological plots, requiring the involvement of certain interdisciplinary instruments of analysis in philosophical research. In the Lacanian tradition of psychoanalysis, we suggest that the story of Eurydice serves to explain Dora’s case and substantiates the autocommunicative core of experience. This plot allowed us to criticize both positivist and economic (investment, fetishism) aspects of classical psychoanalysis and to show the epistemological potential of autocommunication as overcoming the totality of the uncanny and returning «to one’s home». The aim of the article is to investigate the epistemological potential of autocommunication, to which psychoanalysis gives a narrative dimension, and the modern philosophy of the self and the alien – an axiological meaning; the task is to clarify, using the example of the newest psychoanalysis’ work with the uncanny, the limits of autocommunication as a mechanism of both seduction (Sirens) and the return of all participants of future communication to themselves (their own mind). The main method of the study was a metacritique of psychoanalysis from the perspective of general notions of the structure of experience and encounter with the other across generations. The main results of the study are that, contrary to the models of the uncanny as fear of encountering oneself or one’s place in the world, another understanding of the uncanny is possible as a choice that all people face in the continuation of the human race. In this case, the happiness of continuation of the species or creative self-realization overcomes the initial impulses of creative temptations, turning reasoning alone with oneself into a mirror of communication with others that has already taken place. The newness consists in the fact that the paper solved the main contradiction of the theory of autocommunication, which is divided into two parts: the illusion of the desire to communicate and the imperative encounter with one’s speech as a stranger, creating a situation of joint communication. It has been shown that, contrary to the common view in philosophy, this joint communication is socially determined and not at all an extension of the internal topology or structure of thought. The contradiction can be resolved by adopting the concept of «the gift of time» (Derrida), which overcomes the antinomy of exchange and gift. Directions for further research on the basis of this work imply the development of a consistent theory of autocommunication that does not reduce it to individual cases of finding the self or postulating the other and that takes into account the social framework of any communication.

Какую разницу в отношении автора и героя к Магомету выявляет микроанализ художественного текста (на примере романа «Преступление и наказание»)

The article applies the principles of microanalysis to a literary text using Crime and Punishment as an example. Through this lens, Raskolnikov’s “mistake” is revealed, specifically his historical “look back” at the great “founders and legislators of mankind.” Understanding Dostoevsky’s work also requires consideration of the context of Sacred History, which is equally important. The historical and value hierarchies of these contexts are shaped by the differing positions of the author and the protagonist in relation to the figure of Mohammed. Mohammed’s image, which simultaneously enters the perspectives of both the author and the protagonist, takes on different axiological meanings, particularly when compared with Christ: it is elevated in the author’s view and diminished in the protagonist’s. Raskolnikov’s “mistake” is intentionally “corrected” by the author, as evidenced by shifts in the stylistic register, changes in modality, and the distinctive use of quotations, keywords, and details, along with “plot criticism” of the protagonist. A microanalysis (including graphic and punctuation considerations) of the “strange” statement made by a Russian Orthodox student about Allah and his prophet reveals two levels of intertextual citation in the passage, aligning with both the author’s and the protagonist’s perspectives. Within the novel, the series of lawmakers and founders of humanity identified by Raskolnikov (Lycurgus, Solon, Mohammed, Napoleon) is replaced by another sequence (Abraham, Christ, Mohammed). This shift highlights Dostoevsky’s vivid exploration of the genealogical and spiritual connections among the Abrahamic religions and their prophets within the context of Sacred History. Without considering this religious genealogy, an adequate interpretation of Raskolnikov’s final vision of the “bosom of Abraham” is impossible. As he contemplates the “paradise valley,” the novel’s protagonist, like the prudent thief, finds himself alongside the forefather.

DEMOCRATIC CHOICE OF UKRAINE: CONTENT AND PARAMETERS OF POLITICAL ENGINEERING

The article is devoted to the issue of the modern democracy. The key parameters of democratic choice of Ukrainian society are analyzed such as: possibilities of сo-development democracy as form of spiritual intercourse and as form of effective government; potential of this form of management for development of competitiveness of society in a modern world. Scientific interest is directed on the study of base points of democratic development. The problem of political engineering in the information age is considered. It is determined that political engineering is a system of management techniques and technologies, which in strategic and tactical terms is aimed at creative and effective social design and construction. Effective political engineering is a condition for overcoming destructive phenomena, the most important of which is the excessive growth of the phenomenon of randomness in political development. The article is devoted to the specifics of the explication of the concept of value (axiological) meanings in the information age. The content of axiological guidelines, which are a priority for political adaptation of both society and the political regime, is analyzed. The negativism of the tendency to prioritize technology over axiology in the spiritual and practical mastery of the world by man is noted. The challenges of modernity reflect on the understanding of democracy: procedural aspects prevail over substantive ones. The aggravation of contradictions in the orbit of such more important axiological meanings as stability, democracy, and freedom is logical. It is emphasized that the important risks of the information age are due to the use of axiological meanings of political entertainment, carnivalization and glamorization of the political space. The author identifies ways to overcome negative trends.

AXIOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF THE PRINCIPLE OF HUMANISM IN CRIMINAL LAW

Criminal law principles are the conceptual basis for the formation of an effective criminal law. In thecurrent Russian legislation, the principles have received normative consolidation, which is positive, theprinciples themselves in this regard should be the basis for the formation of criminal law norms.

Theintegrative method in scientific research allows us to consider legal phenomena, processes, objects of legalregulation on the basis of methodological approaches of other sciences, not only the humanities, but alsousing mathematical methods, techniques of cybernetics. The article analyzes the criminal-legal significance of the principle of humanism from the perspective of the ratio of punishment and correction, as well as thepriorities of the implementation of the principle under consideration. The author identifies independentelements by means of which the axiological meaning of the principle of humanism is realized in modernRussian criminal law. Such elements include — content, structural, model.

Лингвоаксиологический анализ калмыцких пословиц и поговорок с пищевым компонентом (на русском и французском паремиологическом фоне)

Introduction. The article presents an analysis of Kalmyk food-related proverbs and sayings — comparing the latter to paremiological units of European languages from an axiological perspective. Goals. The study attempts a linguoaxiological analysis of Kalmyk proverbs with gastronomic components and compares them to Russian and French paremiological units. Materials and methods. The paper focuses on a database of paroemias selected via continuous sampling from a variety of dictionaries. The author’s database contains a total of 1,500 paroemias, 260 units have been used in a detailed linguoaxiological analysis, and the article publishes ca. 60 most representative examples. The work employs a complex methodology which includes the steps as follows: to compile an individual cluster of paroemias with gastronomic components for each language; calculate a frequency of gastronomic components and semantically relate the latter to values; characterize emotional and evaluative language means instrumental in correlating gastronomic images with the axiological meaning of a paroemia; analyze Kalmyk paroemias against Russian and French ones via the comparative method. Results. The analysis of paroemias with food components of the three not that closely related languages has showed their high axiological potential. The most frequent components tend to reflect peculiarities of lifestyles and traditions once adopted by the investigated ethnic groups. The material of the three languages is indicative of some correlations within the following values (value dyads): life, knowledge, faith and religion, wealth – poverty. Despite the evident typological differences, the means of expressing evaluativity and their role in creating axiological meanings of paroemias in the three languages have a number of similarities. Conclusions. Such insights into the culturally significant food component in paroemias of Asian and European languages are indicative enough when it comes to investigate the functioning of ethnic value systems, including in terms of their cultural orientations, such as actual degrees of trends towards sociocentrism, primary orientations towards spiritual or material values.

Семантический фрейм как элемент смыслообразования

Introduction. In the modern socio-cultural space, the concept of the meaning of the text of culture, the process of meaning-making have become relevant among scientists. Previously, these concepts were considered in linguistics, psychology and philosophy, today they have become popular among cultural scientists, and art historians. A theoretical analysis of the concept of “frame” allows us to conclude that a frame is a fragment of a person’s memory, representing knowledge about a particular cultural phenomenon. Consideration of the frame in the structure of meaning-making allowed us to reveal that the frame is a cognitive component of the meaning-forming structure. The semantic frame is associated with the concept of understanding the text of culture, which we designate as an artifact, a semantic model of consciousness. In the presence of semantic experience, it is possible to understand the text of culture. We associate the frame with the practical activity of a person and society, that is, with the meaning given to him in the experience of cultural activity. Conclusion. A semantic frame is an element of meaning-making, since it carries knowledge about a particular cultural phenomenon and allows us to establish the meaning of a given cultural text, its axiological meaning. A frame is a generalized frame of experience, a scheme of practical action in which images are revealed through functions. The truth of the frame is established in practice, since a person is a practical and expedient being.

The Triple Bottom Line Accounting from Scientia Sacra Perspective

The purpose of this article is to analyze the concept of Triple Bottom Line Accounting in the perspective of Scientia sacra. The alignment of Triple Bottom Line accounting in the Scientia sacra perceptive is essential to deal with crises in all aspects of life in terms of carrying out corporate sustainability. Scientia sacra is the knowledge of reality that is at the heart of every revelation obtained through revelation and the intellectual intuition that envelops the hearts and minds of man. This article uses interpretative method. The concept of triple bottom line in Scientia sacra's perspective is analyze in ontological, epistemological, and axiological meanings. In the ontological aspect of scientia sacra refers to the existence of God. In line with that, ontological aspect in triple bottom line also refer to the existence of God through religious-ecocentrism or spiritual dimension. In the epistemological aspect, the triple bottom line uses eco-theological principles that originate from the scriptures. In the axiological aspect, the triple bottom line has a transformative function from profit oriented to 3P (profit, people, planet) oriented. However, this transformative function has not yet fully achieved since some companies still committed irregularities, such as environmental pollution as a result from the company's business activities.Keywords: Scientia sacra, Triple Bottom Line, Ontological, Epistemologis, Axiological.

Values of Moldovan high school students from Italy and the Republic of Moldova: a cross-cultural aspect

The article analyzes the features of the value sphere in high school students - children of Moldovan migrants from Italy and in high school students from the Republic of Moldova. Thus, the axiological meanings are evaluated, they revealed both common values and distinct values. Therefore, if for schoolchildren - sons of Moldovan migrants, the priority values are: interesting work and material security, then for their colleagues from the Republic of Moldova, the priority belongs to the spheres of life: family and health. At the same time, we want to mention the fact that for both groups, aesthetic values had little importance. Thus, against the background of the obtained results, there is a need to take more into account the particularities of the value sphere, especially in the case of migrant children from the diaspora.

Actual questions of the philosophical understanding of tourism

The article is devoted to topical issues of philosophical understanding of tourism as a significant phenomenon in public life and an important component of economic development. With each new period of civilization development, the phenomenon of tourism is becoming more and more multifaceted. In a number of countries its development is a priority, taking into account the percentage of employment and high financial profitability. Tourism has long been the basis of the hospitality industry.The article describes the main components of the philosophy of tourism. The axiological meaning of philosophical tourism is revealed. The philosophical praxeology of tourism is explained. The antinomies of unlimited tourist activity are substantiated.There are many examples of completely unnecessary, and sometimes simply inappropriate use of the term “philosophy”. Leaving such arbitrariness on the conscience of their authors, let us emphasize that the “purpose” of philosophy in its classical and modern form is to determine for people by its means and capabilities the meaning-forming guidelines of life, thereby attracting them to the world of wisdom, the realm of sophistication. Developing the idea of a common, universal form of cultural wealth, philosophy reveals and formulates in theoretical concepts the invariable “eternal” principles of human worldview, worldview and worldview. The urgent task of philosophical culture is to substantiate the methodology of finding solutions to the increasingly complex problems of human existence in a rapidly changing world (“Heraclitian flow”), to equip the individual in his/her discovery of new meanings of his/her own existence.Let us state the range of philosophical definitions used to explain various realities of social life and human activity has recently expanded significantly. “If in the late nineteenth and in the first half of the twentieth century the sciences of man and society were considered completely separated from philosophy, today they are undergoing a kind of “refilosophy”, which leads to changes in the relationship between the sciences of man and society themselves”.

Қазақ мәдениетіндегі шешендік сөз өнері

The article is the first attempt in the local cultural studies to carry out a detailed study of the place and role of oratory in Kazakh culture. At the same time, the article considers the basics, cognitive episteme, methodological positions of the Kazakh eloquence as a continuum of general ethnocultural existence, anthropocentric, sociocentric, ethnocentric aspects of the art of eloquence, cultural and sophistic background of the nature and features of mobile thought in the context of eloquent verbal wisdom as a phenomenon-culture. At the same time, the study focuses on the cultural aspects of the cognitive-emotional impact of oratory on the perceiver. Along with this, the depth of presentation of thoughts to the audience in eloquent language and its axiological value are measured. Cultural and axiological meanings such as «beginning, presentation, content, warming up, fusion/synthesis» within the framework of various rhetorical formulas are analyzed. Steps have been taken to reveal the cultural aspects of such concepts as «wrap/envelope,» «persuade,» and «confess» through the listener’s ability to convey a thought in rhetoric to other people through the poetic language. The problem of inseparability between eloquence and objective reality is analyzed through the prism of the Kazakh national-cultural moral ethos.

Аксиологический потенциал образных единиц русского языка, транслирующих растительный код

The article evaluates the linguistic units of the lexical-phraseological level related to the lexical-semantic group “plants.” Metaphors, comparisons, and phraseological expressions possessing imagery, semantic dualism, and an associative nature of expression are character­ized. The aim of the research is to identify the axiological meanings of an extensive group of linguistic units representing the plant code in Russian culture. Attention is given not only to the core but also to peripheral “plant” semas, allowing the inclusion of extensive layers of vocabulary and phraseology in the study. A methodology for axiological analysis of figurative units is developed, consisting of the following stages: identification and typology of evaluative meanings, determination of the basis for evaluation, and modeling a fragment of the value system. In general, figurative language units with the semantics of plants describe people and various aspects of their activities. In studying the general evaluative meanings, it was found that the majority of units with the semantics of plants have a negative evaluation, with the basis for transfer being the properties of plants dangerous to humans. The analysis of specific evaluative meanings allowed for the identification of aesthetic, ethical, intellectual, valeologi­cal, utilitarian, sensory-taste, and other evaluations.

ENGINEERING OF VALUE MEANINGS IN THE INFORMATION AGE

The problem of political engineering in the information age is considered. It is determined that political engineering is a system of management techniques and technologies, which in strategic and tactical terms is aimed at creative and effective social design and construction. Effective political engineering is a condition for overcoming destructive phenomena, the most important of which is the excessive growth of the phenomenon of randomness in political development. The article is devoted to the specifics of the explication of the concept of value (axiological) meanings in the information age. The content of axiological guidelines, which are a priority for political adaptation of both society and the political regime, is analyzed. The negativism of the tendency to prioritize technology over axiology in the spiritual and practical mastery of the world by man is noted. The challenges of modernity reflect on the understanding of democracy: procedural aspects prevail over substantive ones. The aggravation of contradictions in the orbit of such more important axiological meanings as stability, democracy, and freedom is logical. Political engineering with national interests in mind involves technological sovereignty. Such engineering is a condition for political stability and a source of opportunities for prosperity. It is emphasized that the important risks of the information age are due to the use of axiological meanings of political entertainment, carnivalization and glamorization of the political space. The author identifies ways to overcome negative trends. These include: individual experience; stimulation of activity; strengthening of rational guidelines for the formation of a political position; the government's interest in an informed citizen and in increasing his role as a participant in the political process; harmonious correlation of humanity's desire for high technologies with the tasks of implementing axiological meanings that will stand in the way of replacing the Cartesian principle «I think, therefore, I exist» with «I consume, therefore, I exist». The author uses the typology of parameters and strategies of political adaptation to characterize the phenomenon of political engineering.

Features of the Language Assessment Expression
 in B. Akunin’s Cycle of Novels about the Nun Pelagia

The article is devoted to the study concerning the peculiarities of the expression of linguistic evaluation in a literary text. The subject of the study comprises the evaluation tools used in B. Akunin’s cycle of novels about the nun Pelagia when the
 writer creates the image of the main character. The purpose of the analysis regarding the means of expressing evaluation is to identify their role in revealing the author’s idea and in the formation of the hero’s image in the literary work, as well as to determine the individual author’s features of language evaluation.
 The study of evaluation as a universal category and its reflection in the language is based on the concepts and methods that have become classical in Russian philology (the works of N.D. Arutyunova, E.M. Wolf, A.A. Ivin, etc.), as well as on the achievements of modern research.
 The study has found that language evaluation tools play a significant role in revealing the image of the main character in the cycle of novels by B. Akunin. The paper notes two directions of the formation of axiological meanings in creation of the image of the nun Pelagia: an assessment of the appearance and an
 assessment of the heroine’s character. The analysis has showed that the linguistic means of expressing evaluation are used in the context of the situation and the heroine’s role (Polina Andreyevna Lisitsyna, brother Pelagius, nun Pelagia). Most often, lexical means of expressing evaluation are used: adjectives, nouns,
 adverbs with an evaluative meaning. The use of forms with diminutive suffixes contributes to the formation of evaluative meanings. As the author’s method of expressing evaluation, there is a violation of the norms of lexical compatibility,
 which gives uniqueness to the evaluation tools used.
 B. Akunin quite actively uses language assessment in describing the appearance, as well as the character and actions of the nun, while there is a discrepancy between the assessment of the external appearance of Pelagia and her internal qual-
 ities, which contributes to the implementation of the author’s idea when he creates the image of the main character represented in the cycle of detective novels.

Education Phenomenon in Terms of “Metaphysics of Man”

The purpose of this article is to reveal the resources of “metaphysics of man” for understanding the phenomenon of education. The creativity of “metaphysics of man” based on understanding a man as a self-founded, free and self-creating creature, allows taking education as a process of molding, forming a person from himself and thereby affirming his anthropological foundations and ideals. Education can be defined as a fundamental characteristic of anthropic identity. The conclusion that the deep meaning of education is in line with the goal of human metaphysics, which consists of the self-elevation of a person above himself and attainment of himself is substantiated. Scheler’s concept of an “educated creature” was taken as an example of a bearer of a metaphysical relation to education, the essential features of which are ontological participation, the culture of the soul, openness to others, and living integrity, freedom, decency, guidance by common sense. The novel nature of the study is in the substantiation of the heuristic meaning of the comparative analysis of the institutional and metaphysical dimensions (modes of existence, aspects) of the educational process, which appeared to us in the form of individual models of education. The institutional and metaphysical models of education differ from each other: 1) according to the forms of communication between the teacher and the student (vertical or subject-object, and horizontal or subject-subject relations respectively); 2) according to the predominance of one of the educational aspects: teaching or learning (the dominance of teaching or the dominance of learning and self-learning); 3) according to the way the student relates to education (consumer relation or relation to education as an inherent value). The main difference between these models is anthropological: whether a person has made a choice in favor of the metaphysical dimension of life. Allowing moving away from practical relation to the education process, the metaphysical model of education introduces a true axiological meaning into it, affirming the commitment to the social and individual good.

포스트휴머니즘에서 본 주역의 인간관과 탈경계주의적 가치관

This essay is focused on the necessity of redefining the concepts of human beings to coexist in harmony with life-community in the Post-Corona age. The point is to explicate how the concepts of human beings in the Book of Changes provide implications for posthumanism from the viewpoint of beyond-borders through the Change-Penetrating view. Its mechanism connotatively implies the aspect of the reality of balance and changes in the world in the Book of Changes. In the Change-Penetrating view, the category of Yin and Yang, revealing the way of trans-boundaries through robustness and stillness, can verify new concepts of human beings. It has an axiological meaning on the direction in which human beings have to take in this fast changing world. This is reflected in the humanity of the sage, the best human image that appears in the protagonist, and the practicality of Jin-de-xiu-ye (廣德崇業). The attitude of consistent improvement of human beings and the axiology of beyond-borders in the book of change exhibit the new type of integrated viewpoints on the subject about the sustainable coexistence with non-human objects. It is what post-humanism pursues through the process of trans-boundaries.

Axiology of the Civil Law Principles in Modern Conditions

The study examines the problem of the principles of civil law in the context of the author’s conceptual standings concerning the principles and methods of civil law and their axiology, as well as in connection with modern changes of socio-economic and legal nature. The aim of the study was to establish axiological significance of the principles of civil law in modern conditions, including economic and legal transformations associated with the coronavirus pandemic and digitalization of society. The methodology of the study was based on general scientific and private scientific methods of cognition. Among them, a large role is assigned to the historical-legal and comparative-legal methods. In addition, the author analized domestic jurisprudence from the perspective of the problems posed in the paper. The author substantiates the definition of an independent category «axiology of principles of civil law» and describes its characteristic features. The author elucidated the axiology of principles in theoretical and practical aspects. It is concluded that the axiological meaning of the principles of law is constant and stable, does not depend on historical or socio-economic conditions. In a variety of situations, including the coronavirus pandemic or widespread digitalization of society, the principles of civil law retain their value and are able to solve specific theoretical and practical problems. An essential role in this case will belong to the pedagogical function of the principles. According to the author, it is the pedagogical function of law that is currently being implemented to a lesser extent than the rest functions. Students, and then future lawyers, are not always able to interpret the norms of legislation in the context of the principles of civil law and the basic meaning of legislation.
