The article is devoted to the investigation of the relationship between innovation and cyber security in the context of forecasting and reducing risks related to cyber security during the implementation of innovations. The purpose of the study is to confirm and model the interconnection between the levels of innovation development and cyber security of the country. The work describes the concept of innovation risk and the importance of cyber security in the modern world as one of the important factors in overcoming innovation risks. The current state of cyber security was analysed based on various indices, and the impact of cyber threats on innovation processes was investigated based on a sample from 26 countries of the world. This made it possible to identify leaders and outsiders in this field, as well as trends in the development of cyber security in dynamics. It is well-founded that cyber security is a key factor for the development and implementation of innovations. To confirm the existing relationship between cyber security and innovation, the multiple correlation coefficient was calculated, and an econometric model was built using the built-in functions of MS Excel (the estimation of the model parameters was carried out using the method of least squares using the built-in "Data Analysis" package of the MS spreadsheet editor Excel for a multivariable linear model). The significance of the model was confirmed by the coefficient of determination, Fisher's test, and the level of significance of the p-value. The results of the study can be used to develop effective cyber defence strategies and contribute to the stable development of technologies in the face of growing cyber threats.

The origins of Russophobia: on the issue of social and political culture of interstate relations

The article examines the concept and implementation of the principle of «Russophobia» as a type of socio-cultural intolerance. The relevance of addressing this topic is justified by the modern realities of the socio-political confrontation of Western countries in relation to Russia. Particular attention is paid to the causes of Russophobia and the main trends in its manifestation in the modern world. The research was carried out using the method of socio-historical analysis, the epistemological method of analyzing literary, journalistic and scientific sources. The research examines concepts formed in different periods of history that comprehend this phenomenon. Based on reflections on Russophobia by authoritative Russian philosophers, writers and publicists, it has been proved that the Russophobic narrative, starting from the 16th century, became a stable ideological trend reflecting the expansionist interests of Western elites. As Russia strengthened on the world stage, Russophobia intensified. The ideological «crusade» against Orthodox Rus' was launched by European travelers of the 17th-19th centuries, who created a negative image of our country in the Western world. Currently, the countries of the united West have declared a «sacred war» against Russia. A powerful propaganda campaign was launched, directed against Russia and everything Russian. The authors of the article give a moral and ethical assessment of the sociopolitical processes of a new surge of Russophobia in modern conditions. It is suggested that in the current conditions it is necessary to carry out an open international fight against Russophobia and create a system of our own channels of influence in the Western information space, as well as counteract internal Russophobia using cultural and educational methods.

대화적 관계 형성을 통한 현대교사의 실존적 위기 극복: 마틴 부버의 교사 성직관을 중심으로

[Objective] The purpose of this study is to increase understanding of the crisis of teachers’ authority in light of Buber’s view of sacred profession of teachers. [Contents] The crisis of teachers’ authority is not just a problem in Korean society, but is a common phenomenon in modern world. In order to educate, it is necessary for students to recognize the teacher as a person who helps their growth and thus enter into educational relationship. However, in the modern context where the traditional social atmosphere that highly recognized the authority of teachers has disappeared, it is difficult to expect students to recognize the authority of teachers. According to Buber, the crisis of teachers’ authority cannot be solved by reviving the authority of teachers in the past. We must accept that we have entered an era where teachers must shoulder the full responsibility for education, as we have moved away from the era when the community shared educational responsibility. [Conclusions] In order to overcome the crisis of teachers’ authority, it is necessary to keep in mind that teaching is not only a professional job but also a sacred vocation. In modern times, it is essential for teachers to existentially transform themselves, inviting students into a dialogue relationship through the act of inclusion.

Сеульський та Європейський консенсуси з питань розвитку: чи можлива спільна платформа по Україні?

In the context of the tasks of the post-war recovery of Ukraine’s economy and social sphere, a comparative analysis has been carried out of the conceptual foundations of international development assistance provided by the G20 countries, in particular the newly industrialized countries, within the framework of the Seoul Consensus on Development, announced at the G-20 Seoul Summit (2010), and the European Union and its member states within the framework of the new European Consensus on Development (2017). It is shown that the former focuses on growth primarily through investment in infrastructure and solving long-term structural problems of development, and the latter on increasing well-being and fighting poverty. The Seoul Consensus, despite the participation of Western donors, including the EU, in its formulation, largely reflects the principles and messages of newly emerging donors representing the leading new industrial states. The Seoul Consensus is currently a unique strategic compromise on international development aid not only between the West represented by its leading world powers and the European Union, on the one hand, and the largest new industrial states of the modern world - on the other, but also between the Beijing Consensus and the Mumbai Consensus - alternative strategies of socio-economic modernization and sustainable economic growth put forward by China and India, respectively, in their active competition for leadership among the countries of the Global South. The change in the geopolitical and geo-economic landscape has forced the EU to review the criteria for the distribution and prioritization of development aid in order to be able to compete and cooperate with new donors such as China, South Korea, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, etc. The new European consensus emphasizes the instrumentalization and securitization of development, with less attention to democracy and human rights. This shift objectively narrows the gap between traditional and new donors of international development assistance. The author substantiates the prospect of further analysis of the convergent potential of the above-mentioned consensuses in the direction of developing based on the unique geopolitical and geo-economic positioning of Ukraine in the modern world, the "Kyiv Consensus on Development" as a joint conceptual, strategic and political platform of the international donor community for the post-war reconstruction of Ukraine.

Analysis of User Interfaces for Ground Control Stations of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

Introduction. In the modern world, software (SW) is updated daily, particularly for ground control stations (GCS) of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). These systems ' user interfaces (UI) ensure operator interaction with the drone, flight control, mission planning, and realtime data acquisition. These interfaces must be functional, convenient, and intuitive, allowing operators to perform their tasks effectively. Examining global experience allows for an evaluation of existing systems and the identification of areas for improvement. Important aspects include creating intuitive UIs to prevent information overload, ensuring situational awareness, adapting to extreme conditions, and integrating with other systems. The use of virtual and augmented reality technologies, as well as artificial intelligence, can enhance the functionality and convenience of GCS. Such analysis will help in creating safe, efficient, and reliable systems for UAV control. The purpose of the paper is to investigate and conduct a comprehensive analysis of existing user interfaces of software for UAV ground control stations, focusing on their functional capabilities and ease of use. Methods. The following methodological tools were used: concepts of intellectualization of information technologies, the theory of intelligent control, the methodology of building autonomous systems, decision-making theory, and artificial intelligence theory. Results. A review of global experience in user interface development was conducted. The UIs of each of the studied software were analyzed, and their functional capabilities were assessed, identifying their strengths and weaknesses. Comparative tables of interface products were compiled based on their functional capabilities and UI usability levels. Generalized recommendations were prepared for creating a unified interface that combines the best features of existing solutions and addresses their shortcomings. Conclusions. The analysis of GCS UI design for UAVs showed that all systems have strengths and weaknesses. The UI of the Mission Planner software has the most extensive capabilities, but it also requires improvement. Future development should add roles for military pilots and operators, develop a more intuitive and user-friendly interface that meets user needs, and simplify SW settings. For working in extreme conditions, the interface needs to be optimized. Enhancements in data visualization will help make information clear and easy to understand, which is critically important in fast-paced and dangerous situations. Keywords: user interface, ground control station, UAV, virtual reality, augmented reality.

Method of analysis and forecast of the risk of threats to the area of the Pomeranian Voivodeship resulting from climate change

The issue of climate change is one of the key political, social and economic aspects of the modern world. Many theories, controversies and misunderstandings have arisen around this problem, which gave the impression that this is irrelevant from the economic and social points of view. However, a number of worrying climatic phenomena indicate that this issue cannot be underestimated. In particular, it is difficult to argue with the events that are already taking place and indicate that the current climate change may pose a threat to both human health and life, as well as the functioning of the economy, or the environment itself. The obstacles and dynamic nature of climate change require crisis management structures to carry out in-depth risk analyses. The article is a proposal and introduction to the subject of risk analysis at the county level, taking into account the sensitivity and adaptive potential of the presented region.

Human Rights in Cyber Space

This paper tells about and highlights the same human rights in cyberspace and how it should be exercised.

Fetishism for Our Times: A Rhetorical and Philosophical Exploration

This article develops a detailed theory of the fetishes of the modern world. Fetishes may still have their original religious application as talismans and totems, but their actual range is much wider, as I illustrate. I show that a modern fetish satisfies our needs in an unexpected and unlikely manner: it does what it, prima facie, is not supposed to do. How does this happen? To explain, we must trace the construction of fetishes; I do this using some key rhetorical concepts. Paradiastole is a technique of evaluative redescription. It describes the world in value terms as something it is not—we can then ironize the result. If it serves the speakers’ essential interests and satisfies their desires, we have explained a fetish as a good-maker. The fetishization of an object, because of its ironic background, tends to invite critical, meiotic, and even derogatory responses—usually, the issue is and remains essentially contested. For example, early Christians wrote hagiographies that treated some people as saints, thus creating ad hoc beliefs that satisfied their religious interests. I also suggest a different, metonymic understanding of fetishes and their educational benefits. Perhaps my theory is overly permissive, allowing too many fetishes. My final conjecture is that true fetishes function as identity markers; for example, the crucifix is a fetish that defines Christianity.

Adapting Japanese Methods of Holistic Education in Ukrainian Higher Education: Advantages and challenges

This study examines the potential benefits and challenges of integrating Japanese holistic education methods into Ukrainian higher education. Japanese holistic education, characterised by an emphasis on the development of the whole person, including emotional, social and moral aspects, has demonstrated success in nurturing well-rounded individuals. In contrast, Ukrainian higher education emphasises academic achievement, often overlooking holistic development. This study aims to address this gap by exploring how Japanese educational principles can be adapted to the Ukrainian context. Through a comprehensive literature review, surveys and interviews with educators and experts from both countries, the study identifies key principles of Japanese holistic education and assesses their applicability in Ukraine. The findings suggest that the application of these practices can significantly improve students’ well-being, critical thinking, and social skills. However, the study also identified a number of challenges, including cultural differences, resistance to change and logistical constraints. The study concludes with practical recommendations for policymakers and educators in Ukraine, emphasising the need for a gradual and context-sensitive approach to implementing holistic educational practices. By addressing these challenges and building on the identified strengths, Ukrainian higher education can continue to evolve to support the holistic development of students better and prepare them for the complexities of the modern world.

National tolerance program of the United Arab Emirates:universal and spiritual values

The importance of tolerance in the multicultural reality of the modern world cannot be overestimated. Toler-ance is essential in the conceptual foundations of many states’ domestic and foreign policy. Against the back-ground of developing various models of tolerance in the world, there is also a reverse trend towards reviving traditional and religious values. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) promotes its position on the importance of traditional values and tolerance in shaping the conceptual foundations of the country's domestic and foreign policy. The UAE Federal Cabinet has approved a National Tolerance Program that promotes brotherhood and peaceful coexistence between different cultures and religions and fully supports traditional values. The article analyses the conceptualization of tolerance, its distinctive features, value bases and potential for implementa-tion in the Middle East region. The methodological and theoretical basis of the research was the work related to approaches in interpreting different views on understanding the concept of tolerance in the UAE. The arti-cle concludes that the balance between universal and traditional values of the Islamic world is the main fea-ture of the national tolerance program. It is also expected that, given the growing influence of the UAE in the Middle East, this model of tolerance may become widespread and become a new basis for consolidation in the Middle East.

Analysis of Similarities and Discrepancies Between Chinese and Western Hermits Based on Tao Yuanming and Thoreau

Throughout history, the word “hermit” has been a universal concept in both Chinese and western cultures. Chinese and western hermits keep harmony in diversity. To some extent, in terms of some core values, they step on the same paths. At the same time, differences also make them shine uniquely. In ancient societies and modern world, their simple lifestyle and unshakable pursuit of inner purification have inspired people to seek for the real themselves. Their great minds, unique attitudes towards life and extraordinary contributions have significantly promoted the fields of literature, arts and philosophy. This thesis takes Tao Yuanming and Henry David Thoreau, who were typical figures of hermits as main examples, uses a comparative analysis approach, shedding light on the similarities and discrepancies between Chinese and western hermits. Additionally, it provides suggestions on how to live peacefully and easily. In our modern society full of involution and competition, it is of great significance to learn, inherit and internalize the precious spirits, thoughts and ideas from hermits.
