«РІДНОМОВНІСТЬ» У КОНТЕКСТІ НАЦІОНАЛЬНО-ПАТРІОТИЧНОГО СТАНОВЛЕННЯ СУЧАСНОГО УКРАЇНЦЯ (НА ОСНОВІ ПЕДАГОГІЧНОЇ КОНЦЕПЦІЇ ІВАНА ОГІЄНКА)

Modern processes of globalizations, geopolitical changes, the tendency of Ukraine to become the European cultural and educational space – all this createing challenges for society to formation and preservation of self-identity, national con-sciousness and, at the same time, inter-ethnic tolerance. Among a number of issues today – is the pressing issue of the Ukrainian language. The activity of the discussions is due to the fact that Ukraine presents itself to the world as an internatinal formation, where are interwined the economic, socio-political, national, religious and confes-sional interests of nations; Ukraine’s fi ghting for her self-identity, and the Ukrainian people are fi ghting to be independent and free.That’s why to use language as foundations national-patriotic education of modern Ukrainian citizen is in the fi eld of our research. Solution of this problem is able to contribute od creative using philosoph-ped-agogic legacy of the outstanding scientist-linguist, patriot, theologian, cultural and religious fi gure Ivan Ohiienko (metropolian Hilarion). The pedagogical activity of Ivan Ohiienko is a component of his educational work. The wide fi eld of his teacher’s interests covered the problems of humanizing the educa-tional process, de-russifi cation of educational institutions, the spread of the Ukrainian language and spelling, and the formation of nationally conscious Ukrainians.We consider the statement of the pedagogic-thinker to be fair that a real conscious patriot of Ukraine can be raised only with help of the Ukrainian language and only on its basis can those qualities of the person be formed, which are aimed at protecting and defensing the honor of one’s nation, people and state.The key opinion of the past and the present, formulated by Ivan Ohiienko, is «For one people – one literary language, pronunciation and spelling».As a theologian and thinker, Metropolitan Hilarion defi ned the ten most impor-tant commandments of the native-language Ukrainian citizen-patriot, which are ex-tremely relevant in our time.In general, the «native language» concept of youth education, in our opinion, can be outlined in three aspects: realist, identifi cation/personal, social.Pedagogical, theological, linguistic, etc. achievements of Ivan Ohiienko are of unparalleled importance for the development of Ukraine, for the education of its fu-ture generations

The author carried out an analysis of the study of the problem of patriotic education in scientific literature; the educational potential of Cossack pedagogy is emphasized, as it contributes to the formation of a nationally conscious personality, ready to defend the national interests of its state if necessary.
 The purpose of the article is to highlight the peculiarities of patriotic upbringing of a growing personality based on the heroic traditions of the Ukrainian Cossacks in the conditions of modern challenges.
 In the conditions of martial law, the education of a growing personality in the glorious traditions of Ukrainian Cossacks, the popularization of Cossack ideals in society becomes especially relevant. Cossack traditions, as the embodiment of national values, renew the modern educational process, fill it with patriotic content, strengthen the philosophy of the National School of Education, the Strategy of National Patriotic Education, and contribute to the formation of the Ukrainian-centric value sphere of the individual.

Spiritual origin of national patriotic education in the military chaplaincy system

The article examines the role of military chaplaincy in the formation of national-patriotic education of the Ukrainian army. The relevance and novelty of the research lies in determining the essence of Ukrainian military patriotism’s spiritual foundations, which is formed on the archetypes of "clan", "Father", "Mother", "Family". Historically, "Father" embodies power, dominion not only over the body, but also over the soul, he brings conscience and moral grounds for subordination in the entire military family, based on the principles of fraternity. The archetype of "Mother" was formed from ancient Slavic ideas about Berehynia, in the Christian era it receives a new incarnation in the image of the Mother of God as the heavenly protector of the entire human race.
 One of a woman-mother archetype’s varieties in Ukrainian spiritual culture is Mother Nature, which transforms into the archetype of Mother Earth, which in turn is transferred to the paradigm of the native land - "Nenka-Ukraina", creating the archetype of the Motherland. The lack of desire to conquer others and the desire to preserve one's original, native, defines the essence of the Ukrainian army’s patriotism. It has been established that the Orthodox tradition of military chaplaincy is based on the spiritual union of Cossacks and monasticism during the liberation struggle. Later, the formation of the Ukrainian military clergy was closely connected with the Greek Catholic Church, which at that time had the greatest experience in moral and spiritual support of the Ukrainian national liberation struggle participants in the western Ukrainian lands. The dangers of the destructive influence of pro-Russian denominations’ priests on the moral and psychological state of military personnel are analyzed. It was noted that the armed aggression against Ukraine led to the intensified use of the church and the clergy’s potential for consolidation of the population and strengthening of patriotic feelings in servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, as well as to expose and isolate pro-Russian religious communities. On the basis of the positive experience of the leading world’s countries, an own system of professional training and education of personnel was created, which was based on defining principles: national dignity, patriotism, Christian morality, fidelity to the oath, fidelity to military duty.

METHODOLOGICAL ASPECTS IN NATIONAL PATRIOTIC EDUCATION IN THE CONDITIONS OF ACCELERATION OF EDUCATIONAL MOBILITY

The article is devoted to the phenomenon of educational mobility, which takes place in the options of an extreme situation and deep socio-cultural transformations of the 21st century. It is noted that modern mobility researchers agree on the possible two-fold impact of educational mobility on the life of society and a person: it can have both positive results and create many dangers and challenges. The actual problem of the non-return of a part of Ukrainian refugees who, through various international educational programs, became participants in external educational mobility, was considered. In the author’s opinion, when studying educational mobility, its nature, problems, risks of possible transformation into migration, it is worth taking into account the motivational component, mentality, and axiological factors. Attention is focused on the main models and scenarios of possible human behavior in a foreign cultural environment. It is highlighted that «real» mobility is not driven by selfish desires or mercantile interests, but by an understanding of the need to acquire new knowledge and experience for its actualization in one’s country. Therefore, the higher the level of national-patriotic education, the smaller the outflow of highly qualified specialists. Issues related to the formation of national consciousness, patriotism based on the latest theoretical and practical achievements of the democratic countries of the world are classified as acute problems that require prompt resolution. It was emphasized that an extreme situation does not automatically solve the problems of national-patriotic education. It should be carried out at all levels of national education, become the core of the humanitarian policy of the state and ensure harmonious and integral development of the individual. It is important that the content and form correspond to each other. It is emphasized that the content of national-patriotic education should include national ideas that can be manifested through culture, customs, language, history, religion, rituals, etc. Therefore, there is an urgent need to find new effective forms and methods aimed at combating formalism in education, which will contribute to the formation of a patriotic person who, as a participant in educational mobility, will be able to integrate into a new socio-cultural space for him and will not become a seeker of happiness in a foreign land.

OUN in the national patriotic education of youth in 1944-53: legal experience and lessons

Purpose. The purpose of the study is to determine the influence of historical and legal factors on the development of the legal ideology of Ukrainians in the 19th century. The main emphasis is placed on the characteristics of the key directions of legal ideology that were developing, and the level of their practical implementation in the socio-legal conditions of the 19th - early 20th centuries is also determined. One of the tasks of the study was to establish the importance of the influence of historicisms on the process of formation and development of legal ideology, which is also important in today's conditions, because of the full-scale invasion of Russia. It is one of the key factors that determine the need to abandon Soviet ideological stereotypes, including legal ones. Methods. The methodological basis of the research was a complex of general scientific, special scientific and philosophical methods, as well as the principles of historicism. Results. Five approaches are followed in the works of Ukrainian scientists. The first, philosophical-legal, is characterized by a complete juxtaposition of legal ideology and national ideology. The second direction is exclusively historical and legal. Within the limits of the third direction, it is proposed to consider legal ideology as an element of the legal policy of the state, in particular, the sphere of ensuring human rights. There is also a popular opinion that the ideas of legal ideology are value orientations that actively influence the lawful behavior of a person and the process of law-making. As a result, legal ideology can be considered an element of legal culture or even legal mentality. At the same time, within the latter, legal ideology is the most dynamic category, because it depends on public opinion, group and individual legal awareness. It was established that historical conditions have a decisive influence on the process of formation of legal ideology, as they not only impose on it the specifics of the era, social attitudes, the general level of cultural development, spirituality, but also turn a specific legal ideology into an element of culture that takes root in the legal consciousness of the population, becomes a component of his legal mentality. It was in the 19th century. three main types of legal ideology of Ukrainians were formed: liberal, Christian-conservative and socialist (social-democratic). Originality. The internal and external historicisms that in the 19th century are characterized. contributed to the development of three types of legal ideology – liberal, conservative and socialist. Practical significance. The results of the study can be used in further historical and legal studies, preparation of scientific projects, special courses, in the process of implementation of the state and regional policy of patriotic education of youth.

Legal tradition and legal culture in the system of national patriotic education of youth

Purpose. The purpose of our research is to determine the content of the concepts of legal tradition and legal culture, as well as to establish their role in the process of national-patriotic education of young people. Method. The methodological basis of scientific research was a system of general scientific, special scientific and philosophical methods, as well as principles and methods of scientific knowledge. Results. It was established that «legal tradition» and «legal culture» are concepts of different content levels. «Legal tradition» is a more general and systemic concept, because it allows us to understand the way and reasons for the formation of the legal system, its evolution in historical being, the peculiarities of the implementation of legal norms, etc. Instead, «legal culture» reflects the level of development of the legal system at a specific stage of its development. It can be argued that «legal culture» forms «legal tradition». From the level of development of «legal tradition» and «legal culture» we can talk about the level of legal awareness of the country's population, about its legal activity and even legal memory. It is important that in today's conditions, when the influence of the information space is growing, globalization challenges are intensifying, various forms of hybrid conflicts are being implemented, national-patriotic education should be carried out exclusively at the level of transformation of legal culture and legal tradition. Scientific novelty. The thesis that the concepts of «legal tradition» and «legal culture» are important categories of legal understanding and express the way of formation of the legal system of a specific state is substantiated. At the same time, we consider the concept of «legal tradition» to be broader and such that it not only reveals historical experience in the process of formation and use of law by individual peoples, but also indicates the vector of development of society, reflects the level of its perception of law. Regarding the concept of «legal culture», it is narrower and primarily reflects legal perception in specific time frames. Both of these concepts are important in the context of implementing national-patriotic education. Practical significance. The achieved results can be used in the process of further theoretical and legal research, preparation of individual special courses.

Analysis of normative and legal acts of Ukraine in the sphere of national patriotic education

Purpose.

It was established that as of the beginning of 2023, more than two dozen legal acts regulating the procedure of national-patriotic education are in force. It is significant that the lion's share of them are Presidential Decrees. It is important that certain normative legal acts were adopted after 2014 and are a direct reaction to the occupation of Crimea and military actions in the East of Ukraine. According to content and object of influence, they can be divided into several blocks: 1) laws determining the legal status of state symbols, in particular the national language; 2) laws and decrees on the celebration of certain memorable dates from national history and honoring the victims of totalitarian regimes, military conflicts, etc.; 3) state strategies of national-patriotic education and relevant presidential decrees or government programs regarding their implementation; 4) laws emphasizing the educational component, the role of educational institutions, and even the personal responsibility of pedagogical and scientific-pedagogical workers for the implementation of national-patriotic education. Scientific novelty. It is proposed that the improvement of state policy in the field of national-patriotic education can be achieved through: the commitment of scientists, representatives of local self-government bodies, and government officials to the process of forming a single categorical and conceptual apparatus, which will become a road map and allow streamlining measures for national-patriotic education; due to the development of the level of legal culture of the population, strengthened information policy; diversification of approaches to the organization of national-patriotic education, and activation of the participation of mass media, representatives of culture, cinematography, music, show business, study and implementation of international experience regarding the implementation of responsibility for denigrating the importance of national culture, history, traditions of state-building; consideration of the issue of national-patriotic education as an element of national security.
