Iran’s axis of resistance through the lens of ontological security

Unlike traditional approaches that analyse an actor’s foreign policy by focusing on the search for physical security and material interests, ontological security advocates a more nuanced approach that considers identity politics, regime security, issues of legitimacy, and emotional motives. This article aims to examine Iran’s Axis of Resistance from the perspective of ontological security, without rescinding the possibility of power struggles or ideological motivations in influencing Iran’s foreign policymaking process. This study posits that the Axis of Resistance embodies a profound meaning and overarching significance for Iran that transcends mere considerations of physical security or sectarian-­ideological inclinations. The pursuit of the Axis of Resistance by Iran serves to provide the regime with ontological security, achieved through the utilisation of national narratives, the establishment of routines, concerns pertaining to domestic order, and the incorporation of emotional underpinnings of the Islamic regime. The existential significance that Iran ascribes to the Axis of Resistance is of crucial importance in maintaining this paradigm, despite all its costs.

"Olympic Hope": Fucoldian interpretations

The study of literary works devoted to running makes it possible to determine their plot dominant as a conflict between the feeling of freedom generated by running and such properties of professional sports as fierce competition of competitive activities and authoritarian regulation of the training process. Sociocultural tensions of this kind were fruitfully conceptualized in the works of Michel Foucault using the concepts of bio-power as a unity of anatomical and biopolitics; disciplinary practices as methods of normalization of bodies; supervision and panopticism as means of control, as well as technologies of self and subjectivation aimed at dampening the effects of excessive domination. The article uses the fantastic sports novel by Danish writer Knud Lundberg "Olympic Hope: The Story that Happened at the 1996 Olympic Games" published in 1955 and not translated into Russian as an object of application of the Fucoldian means of analyzing the above conflict situation. The research methodology is based on a conceptual analysis of M. Foucault's theoretical legacy and the reception of the French philosopher's ideas by Russian and Western scientists. The study revealed that the novel presents four variants of bio-power: German (genetic eugenics), American (hormonal eugenics), Soviet (crippling practices) and Danish (based on the free development of natural predisposition), used to organize the birth and training of top-level runners. The disciplinary practices of runner training are most pronounced in totalitarian states. The methods of their implementation are specialized closed training spaces; strict daily routine; daily monotonous running exercises; constant differentiation of athletes by rating; exams in the form of competitions; medical experiments. The realization of the technologies of selfhood and subjectivation by runners is carried out in the forms of resistance and transgression. K. Lundberg associates his Olympic hopes in sports running not with cruel professionals who are ready to give up their health (the problem of doping) and even their lives for the sake of personal awards and increasing the prestige of their states, but with educated means of humanistic sports by amateur athletes, for whom running has existential significance as a way of holistic, bodily and spiritual self-realization in the ethically loaded sphere of freedom.

Л. П. Карсавин и В. Н. Лосский: экклесиологические параллели

Research literature often speaks of the influence of L.P. Karsavin’s ideas on V.N. Lossky, since the latter listened to the philosopher’s lectures at St. Petersburg University. This influence is mentioned by such authors as R. Williams, S.S. Khoruzhy, Prot. G. Florovsky, S. N. Nikitina and others. However, they all focus primarily on two points: the significance of Filioque in the development of Western civilization and the concept of personality. Hence the ecclesiological aspect in the heritage of both authors, which is certainly very important, remains beyond the scope of consideration. It is connected primarily with the question whether the administrative structure of the Church can be determined by its mystical life and, thus, whether it can have not a historically temporal and relative, but an existential significance. V. N. Lossky first poses this question in “The Mystical Theology of the Eastern Church”, and gives the answer in his post-war works, first of all in the articles published in the new series of “Herald Of the Russian Patriarchal Exarchate” 1950: “Temptations of Church Consciousness " and "On the third property of the Church." They formulate the idea of “apostolic circles” of the hierarchy, which can be realized at the level of both the universal and the local Church, equally preserving their catholicity and, thus, being a reflection of the Divine Trinity. Based on the ideas of Joseph de Maistre, A. S. Khomyakov and V. S. Solovyov, Karsavin developed his concept of “symphonic personality” in the 1920s. According to Karsavin, the Church is also a “symphonic personality”. The symphonic personalities of local churches, being a part of the symphonic personality of the universal Church, at the same time possess its fullness. A comparison of these concepts allows us to come to the conclusion that V.N. Lossky in one way or another used the ideas of his teacher, transferring them from the philosophical to the theological horizon.

The role of the purposeful shared decision making model in vascularized composite allotransplantation.

For some patients who have lost the lower part of an arm, hand transplant offers the possibility of receiving a new limb with varying degrees of sensation and function. This procedure, Vascularized Composite Allotransplantation (VCA), is demanding for patients and their care community and comes with significant risks. As a high-stakes decision, patients interested in VCA are subject to extensive clinical evaluation and eligibility decision making. Patients and their care community must also decide if hand transplant (versus other approaches including rehabilitative therapies with or without prosthesis) is right for them. This decision making is often confusing and practically and emotionally fraught. It is complicated in four ways: by the numerous beneficial and harmful potential effects of hand transplant or other options, the number of people affected by VCA and the diverse or conflicting positions that they may hold, the practical demands and limitations of the patient's life situation, and the existential significance of limb loss and transplant for the patient's being. Patients need support in working through these treatment determining issues. Evaluation does not provide this support. Shared decision making (SDM) is a method of care that helps patients think, talk, and feel their way through to the right course of action for them. However, traditional models of SDM that focus on weighing possible beneficial and harmful effects of treatments are ill-equipped to tackle the heterogeneous issues of VCA. A recent model, Purposeful SDM extends the range of troubling issues that SDM can help support beyond opposing effects, to include conflicting positions, life situations, and existential being. In this paper we explore the pertinence of these issues in VCA, methods of SDM that each require of clinicians, the benefits of supporting patients with the breadth of issues in their unique problematic situations, implications for outcomes and practice, and extend the theory of the Purposeful SDM model itself based on the issues present in hand transplant decision making.

The Role of Image Schemas in Interpreting English Phrasal Verbs: A Philosophical and Linguistic Perspective

Phrasal verbs pose challenges for interpretation due to unpredictable meanings. This study examined how image schemas aid comprehension from linguistic and philosophical viewpoints. A literature review methodology integrated insights from cognitive linguistics, philosophy of language, and related fields to provide a comprehensive understanding. Linguistically, image schemas offer a cognitive framework for processing phrasal verbs by mapping meanings to embodied experiences. Philosophically, schemas reflect how language emerges from and shapes conceptualization. Comparative analysis showed linguistics emphasizes schemas' mental role in comprehension, while philosophy explores their existential significance. Results identified schemas like CONTAINER and PATH that extend metaphorically from physical interactions to abstract phrasal verb meanings. Linguistically, schemas provide a framework for analyzing structures and meanings. Philosophically, schemas reflect language's emergence from embodiment and influence on thought. Teaching implications were to connect phrasal verbs to familiar embodied experiences through schemas. Theoretical implications were that schemas are fundamental to thought and linguistic expressions. By synthesizing perspectives, this study enhanced understanding of the intricate cognitive mechanisms linking schemas to phrasal verbs. It highlighted implications for language education and advances in interdisciplinary inquiry into embodied cognition and communication.

Corpus explication of semantics of the dichotomous concept “Life - Death” in the Russian linguistic picture of the world

The conceptual dyad “Life - Death” in the Russian linguistic picture of the world is analyzed. The relevance of the research is conditioned by the existential significance of the studied phenomenon in the axiological field of the Russian linguistic picture of the world. The aim of the study is to conduct corpus analysis of the conceptual dyad “Life” and “Death”. The research material includes 70 poetic units containing the nuclear lexemes “Life” and “Death” in the Russian National Corpus. The poetic units are semantically complete contexts of poems by Russian poets (M. Tsvetaeva, M. Voloshin, S. Esenin, Z. Gippius, etc.). Descriptive method, conceptual analysis, method of linguistic-cultural commentary, contextual analysis, corpus method were applied. It was concluded that the concepts “Life - Death” reconstruct the dominant features of the Russian linguistic picture of the world, which is characterized not only by qualitative heterogeneity, but also by a certain bipolarity in the subject's behavior (agenticity vs passivity, providentiality vs activity, etc.). Such semantic parameters of the concepts “Life” and “Death” were established as transience and uncontrollability of life; life as an element, where a person is not an active subject, but an object for external forces; transience of life and its unpredictability; belief in life after death; death as a transition to otherness. The explanatory context for adequate commenting of conceptual meanings is formed.

Material culture in the Old Testament: Conflict and propaganda with Missionary Christianity

Cultural materiality as evident in the Old Testament (OT) was borne out of personal and corporate experiences of ancient Israelites with YHWH (Ex 16:32–34; 25–36; Nm 16–17, Jos 3–4). At the dawn of Christian Missions, certain indigenous religious objects became ‘idolatrous’, but across the Atlantic Ocean, they were works of art kept in museums and art galleries. This negatively impacted biblical reception by the locals. This work investigates select OT icons and wades into their ontological and existential significance in relation to the conflict and propaganda of Missionary Christianity towards indigenous icons. The narrative criticism and the Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) including Focus Group Discussion (FGD) were engaged in the study while the Symbolic Interactionism was the theoretical framework. The objects preserved by ancient Israel were to serve as relics for future generations who were to have an existential knowledge of YHWH’s dealings with their forebears. Western missionaries claimed to have transmitted biblical messages to Africa, yet their approach led to conflicts in biblical reception by the indigenous people who struggled between being detached from their existential realities, and accepting the gospel with its Eurocentric biases. The Western missionaries’ inability to transmit the biblical understanding of cultural materiality in their dealings with Africans invites suspicion in the missionaries’ efforts with a pretentious display of ignorance of the ontological significance of indigenous materiality.Contribution: This article offers insight into the conflict and propaganda inherent in the Western missionaries’ approach in transmitting biblical messages of cultural materiality, and challenges of biblical reception among indigenous people in Nigeria.

Intentionality and Autonomy in Husserl’s Phenomenology: A Comprehensive Analysis of Conscious Decisions and the Transcendental Ego

This essay embarks on a thorough exploration of Edmund Husserl’s seminal contributions to the philosophical discourse on consciousness, with a particular focus on the dynamics of conscious decisions within the framework of phenomenology. By delving into Husserl’s nuanced examination of consciousness—its temporal structure, the nature of self-awareness, and the foundational concept of intentionality—the analysis reveals the intricate ways in which Husserl posits the transcendental ego as the nexus of meaning, judgment, and perception. The discussion illuminates how Husserl’s theory of intentionality and the intentional act’s matter and quality serve as the cornerstone for understanding the will’s engagement with the world. Through a detailed exposition of Husserl’s ideas on the phenomenological reduction, the essay articulates the active role of consciousness in constituting reality and the ethical dimensions underpinning the exercise of free will. The paper argues that Husserl’s insights into conscious decision-making challenge conventional views by framing free will within the contexts of knowledge, ethical deliberation, and the ego’s autonomy. This essay contributes to the ongoing dialogue between phenomenology and contemporary philosophy of mind by highlighting Husserl’s profound impact on our understanding of consciousness, agency, and the existential significance of human decisions. Keywords: Edmund Husserl, Phenomenology, Conscious Decisions, Transcendental Ego, Intentionality, Free Will, Consciousness, Epistemology, Temporality, Rationality, Autonomy, Phenomenological Reduction (Epoché), Intersubjectivity, Self-awareness

COVID-19 distress, sources of meaning, and crisis of meaning in the Finnish context

ABSTRACT In secularised Nordic cultures, more research is needed about the existential significance of COVID-19 distress. The connection between COVID-19 distress, crisis of meaning, and sources of meaning was studied using the Finnish version of Sources of Meaning and Meaning in Life (SoMe) questionnaire. The data were collected from 551 Finns. Respondents’ sociodemographic information was related to the studied variables. Commitment to protecting one's health and closeness to nature were associated with decreased COVID-19 distress while focus on the self and social commitment was associated with increased distress. This distress was connected to increased crisis of meaning that was buffered by religiosity. COVID-19 distress was highest among women and young people. Young age, less education, being a student, non-religious worldview, and male gender were associated with increased crisis of meaning. The results for this pandemic context suggest that in secularised cultures, people turn to religion if other coping strategies are unavailable.

Embedding Mātauranga Māori in Architectural Education

The School of Architecture at Unitec | Te Pūkenga has developed a te reo Māori kuputaka (glossary). This resource is included in the first-year Bachelor of Architectural Studies content to help embed mātauranga Māori in pedagogy. The initiative reflects the determination on the part of Te Whare Wānanga o Wairaka Unitec | Te Pūkenga and the School of Architecture to honour te Tiriti o Waitangi (the Treaty of Waitangi) and meet programme aims. This bicultural approach mirrors professional practice: in Ōtautahi Christchurch, after the 2011 earthquake, Indigenous sustainable practices were successfully integrated during the rebuild in collaboration with Ngāi Tahu and local hapū Ngāi Tūāhuriri; in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland, Te Aranga Māori Design Principles recognise the authority of mana whenua and ensure Indigenous values are incorporated in the design of the built environment. Frameworks for the integration of te ao Māori sustainable values into Building Information Modelling (BIM) data are currently being developed to become a nationwide resource expanding and enriching the New Zealand BIM Handbook. Including specific architectural vocabulary in te reo Māori sensitises all involved in the course to the interaction and layering of languages. The poetic and resonant qualities of te reo equivalents of English terms enrich the discussion of a more existential significance of architecture’s concepts, components and acts. Cases in point are ‘āputa whai take’ – ‘purposeful gap/space’; ‘nōhanga hāneanea’ – ‘comfortable habitat/ergonomics’; and ‘whare kiato’ – ‘compact house/tiny home’. This additional layer of meaning reflects our bicultural circumstances. In addition, the kuputaka introduces tikanga Māori in terms such as ‘tapu’ – ‘sacred, set apart’ – and ‘noa’ – ‘common, ordinary’ – as well as ‘iwi’, hapū’ and other essential components of te ao Māori.Introducing mātauranga Māori and a te reo Māori kuputaka creates foundations that successive years of architectural study can build on – this provides our graduates with essential skills and the instruments to engage effectively within professional practice and to shape our environment.

Stefan Zweig: Die Schachnovelle – Das Spiel

Abstract The Chess Story, written at the end of 1941, is considered internationally to be Stefan Zweig‘s greatest success. At the center of the novella is undoubtedly Dr. B. He comes from a distinguished Austrian family, was the head of a law firm in Vienna, which advised monasteries and part of the imperial family in property matters. When the Nazi occupation of Austria was imminent, the activity became dangerous. A day before Hitler invaded Austria, he was arrested by the Gestapo and imprisoned in the Hotel Metropole. The isolation and monotony wore him down. Shortly before a new interrogation is scheduled, Dr. B. discovers a book with a collection of one hundred and fifty chess games. To escape the threat of nothingness, he plays chess games blind. Playing chess is not understood by Dr. B. as a mere pastime, but as meaning; it has an existential significance.

AXIOLOGICAL ASPECT OF THE CONCEPT IDENTITY OPPOSITION REALIZATION (BY THE EXAMPLE OF THE CREATION ‒ DESTRUCTION DICHOTOMY)

Background. The global redistribution of the balance of power, caused by the imbalance of the geopolitical interests of the leading world powers, contributed to the actualization within the boundaries of the Russian linguistic and cultural space of phenomena associated with the accentuation of existential significance categories among which the concept IDENTITY occupies a special position.
 Purpose. The article is devoted to the study of the implementation of the value aspect of the concept IDENTITY opposition in Russian linguistic culture.
 Materials and methods. The material for this study was the article of the President of the Russian Federation V.V. Putin On the historical unity of Russians and Ukrainians. July, 12, 2021; interview with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation S.V. Lavrov; Internet publication of the Russian journalist I.A. Yakovenko Disintegration of the Russian Federation: Scenarios and Prospects; speeches of state and political figures of Russia in the television political show Evening with Vladimir Solovyov. When writing the article, the following methods were used: lexical-semantic, comparative-contrastive, discursive, contextual analysis.
 Results. In the course of the study the specifics of the differentiated objectification of the concept IDENTITY in the Russian language were analyzed; various theoretical approaches to the substantiation of the oppositional nature of the language implementation of the concept under study were systematized; the factual interdependence of the studied concept with the category “linguistic consciousness” was established; an integrative feature of the implementation of the concept IDENTITY in the Russian language space was revealed; the indicative characteristic of the concept IDENTITY in the composition of the subjects of the opposition CREATION ‒ DESTRUCTION was described.
 Practical implications. The results of the study can find practical application in the preparation of teaching aids and textbooks on the linguo-cognitive analysis of concepts based on dichotomous models.

Un-tracking menopause: How not using self-tracking technologies mediates women's self-experiences in menopause.

Self-tracking in general, and by women in particular is increasingly researched. In the literature, however, women's interactions with selftracking technologies in menopause-a change that (almost) every woman will go through-is largely taken for granted. This paper addresses this lacuna by asking whether and how menopausal women use self-tracking technologies, and how this (non-) usage mediates their self-experiences. In doing so, it elaborates on another understudied phenomenon: the constitutive significance of "un-tracking"-that is, of various shades and levels of not using self-tracking technologies-in menopause. Most of the 13 interviewed women in this study reported that they stopped, drastically reduced, or resisted self-tracking in menopause. By framing the discussion of these accounts of "un-tracking" within the tradition of post-phenomenology and a phenomenology of situated bodily self-awareness, we show that these women experience their bodies as (1) wise and eu-appearing, (2) unmoldable and dysappearing, and (3) longing for disappearance. Herein, their experientially mediating un-tracking practices are temporally and socio-culturally contextualized in complex ways and bear substantial existential significance. This study establishes the potential harmful ways in which self-tracking mediates self-experiences, as well as the fruitful ways in which un-tracking may do so. Against the background of this observation, this paper makes an appeal to take a step back from uncritically celebrating self-tracking in healthcare contexts, and critically evaluates whether (the promotion of) using (more) self-tracking technologies in these contexts is desirable to begin with.

Региональное развитие в постсекулярную эпоху: духовно-нравственный аспект

The article deals with the process of socialization within local communities. An attempt is made to identify and minimize the main risks of the socialization model. For our country, the mechanism of the cultural failure of the beginning of the 20th century still causes painful symptoms of the recovery of public consciousness in the present-day post-secular era; therefore, the anamnesis of emerging worldview disorders has the existential significance. This is especially important in conditions when pro-Western religiosity of an unprecedentedly wide spectrum is turning into a powerful force and a political tool that deforms values of the younger generation. The study is carried out taking into account the ethno-religious mosaic and is aimed at finding social cohesion as a condition for regional development. The author, through philosophical and sociological analysis, concludes that the spiritual and moral sphere has special significance for the development of the Russian society.

ОСОБЕННОСТИ СЕКЬЮРИТИЗАЦИИ ВОДНОГО ВОПРОСА В ЭФИОПИИ В РАМКАХ КРИТИЧЕСКИХ ПОДХОДОВ К ИССЛЕДОВАНИЮ БЕЗОПАСНОСТИ

This article seeks to explore the problem of water security in Ethiopia, involving the implementation of the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) project. With its existential significance for the Ethiopian nation attributed to the dam, discovering the mechanisms of constructing threats to water security, as well as possible structural preconditions for a shift from confrontational to compromise politics, are examined. Therefore, an analysis of the Ethiopian discourse on GERD is being carried out in order to identify possible signs of securitisation and / or de-securitisation of the water issue. The research also compares the explanatory power of various approaches within the theory of securitisation for this case. The key finding is the explanation of the phenomenon of water securitisation in Ethiopia as an established political technology for the management of internal processes, in contrast to the traditional approach which posits an intersubjective policy of decisive action.

Pretty, meaningful lives: physical attractiveness and experienced and perceived meaning in life

ABSTRACT Three studies examined the association between physical attractiveness and meaning in life. Study 1 (N = 305 college students) showed that self-reported physical attractiveness positively correlated with meaning in life. Study 2 (N = 598 noncollege adults) replicated the association between self-reported physical attractiveness and meaning in life and extended those findings, demonstrating that outside perceptions of attractiveness are linked to outside perceptions of how meaningful a person’s life is. Study 3 (N = 331 targets, 97 raters) replicated these findings and probed the nuances of the relationships between outside ratings and self-reports of attractiveness and meaning in life. Across the studies, existential significance, or the feeling that one’s life matters, was the facet of meaning that primarily explained the link between attractiveness and meaning in life. In addition, a person’s view of their own attractiveness is more indicative of their well-being than outsider ratings. Implications for our understanding of meaning in life are discussed.

What I cannot do without you. Towards a truly embedded and embodied account of the socially extended mind

Through a discussion of the socially extended mind, this paper advances the “not possible without principle” as an alternative to the social parity principle. By charging the social parity principle with reductionism about the social dimension of socially extended processes, the paper offers a new argumentative strategy for the socially extended mind that stresses its existential significance. The “not possible without principle” shows that not only is something more achieved through socially located processes of knowledge building, but also that, and more importantly, what is achieved is something that would not have been possible without social interaction. The social parity principle states that the result of an activity achieved via social interaction should be assumed functionally equivalent to a solitary investigation and is characterized by multiple realisability. Contrary to the social parity principle, the “not possible without principle” holds that the result would not have been achieved without the social interaction between (at least) two agents with specific existential needs. The socially extended mind never happens in a void. This means that the "not possible without" principle should be located in real-life, affectively charged, embodied experiences of skilful interactions between agents. This fundamental conceptual change via reference to the “existential necessity” that regulates socially extended processes is necessary in order to effectively lead the socially extended mind to a truly embedded and embodied account.

The politics of gender representation and successful ageing in internet pornography

ABSTRACT The current cultural discourse of successful ageing tends to reinvigorate the graying population into young, energetic and healthy social beings through prescriptions of active sexuality. On TV, in movies and advertising, the term ‘sexy oldies’ has emerged to uphold this script about old people and their sexuality. However, what seems to be troubling about the (online) depiction of the ageing demographic is its rigid and homogenous portrayal of old people and their sexuality that misrepresents aspects of gender and age, especially when it refers in an unfavorable manner to the bodies of older women in the mass media. Delving into the sexual portrayal of old persons in internet pornography, this paper scrutinizes the politics and problematic of gender representation and successful ageing via a content analysis of a popular porn website, XVideos. I argue here that although the online appearance of sexy oldies transmits a positive cultural signal that affirms the existential significance of older women, it provides a sexist and ageist handling of their bodies, especially how their online identities are presented. The question then is about the need to redress this and seek more gender equal representations.

МІГРАЦІЙНА БЕЗПЕКА ДЕРЖАВИ ЯК ОСНОВА ЗБЕРЕЖЕННЯ І РОЗВИТКУ ІНТЕЛЕКТУАЛЬНОГО КАПІТАЛУ ЕКОНОМІКИ УКРАЇНИ

Великий геополітичний перерозподіл наприкінці минулого століття спричинив зміну уявлень про міграцію та її роль у розвитку постіндустріального суспільства. Саме тоді викристалізувалася безпекова парадигма сучасних міграційних процесів. Динаміка і наслідки міграції у світі формують об’єктивну потребу у виокремленні міграційної безпеки як незалежної складової системи національної безпеки і в її інституціональній формалізації. Понятійний плюралізм у сфері міграційної безпеки зумовлений неоднозначним трактуванням самого явища міграції та багатоаспектністю його прояву. Авторська позиція передбачає розуміння поняття міграційної безпеки як стану захищеності національних інтересів у сфері міграції від впливу реальних і потенційних загроз, забезпечення якого є пріоритетним завданням діяльності системи державних і недержавних інституцій, які вживають узгоджених заходів щодо реалізації та захисту цих інтересів. Важливими аспектами в дослідженнях міграційної безпеки є характер і вектори впливу міграційних процесів. Вплив залежить від виду і форми міграційної активності, типу суспільства відносно міграційного ресурсу (країни-донори, країни-реципієнти, транзитні країни, країни змішаного типу), рівня залежності від зовнішньої міграції, міри врегульованості цих процесів, ступеня резилентності соціоекономічних систем. Обґрунтовано, що безпековий потенціал України прямо пов'язаний з рівнем міграційних ризиків і загроз (поряд з іншими чинниками), а конкурентоспроможність економіки визначається її інтелектуально-кадровим потенціалом. «Вимивання» класу інтелектуалів призводить до відставання суспільства, зниження темпів зростання і соціального напруження. Україна є яскравим прикладом такої ситуації, а з початком повномасштабної війни міграційні ризики трансформувалися в реальні загрози. Мінімізація загроз і нарощування позитивних міграційних ефектів є необхідними компонентами політики забезпечення національної безпеки цивілізованих країн в умовах нестабільності. Цієї дуальності вимагають сучасні міграційно-гуманітарні кризи, які формують нові безпекові виклики у світі, а сама міграційна безпека набуває екзистенційного значення.
