ДО ПИТАННЯ ІНТЕГРАЦІЇ УКРАЇНСЬКИХ ЗАКЛАДІВ ВИЩОЇ ОСВІТИ В ЄВРОПЕЙСЬКИЙ ОСВІТНІЙ ПРОСТІР

Modern realities cause new challenges to education – on the one hand, the course of integration into the European educational space and the implementation of relevant reforms remains unchanged, on the other hand – the realities of the full-scale invasion of russia on the territory of Ukraine make significant adjustments to the development and transformation of the higher education system of Ukraine. The purpose of the article is to find out the specifics of the implementation of the main principles of the Bologna Process in Ukrainian institutions of higher education in today’s conditions. The authors of the article investigated the main stages of the formation of the European educational space, defined the basic principles of its functioning. An analysis of the implementation of the provisions of the Bologna Process in the educational process was carried out on the example of the activities of Ukrainian institutions of higher education. Conclusions. Modernization of the educational activities of Ukrainian higher education institutions in the context of the European integration of higher education of Ukraine involves, on the one hand, the implementation of the main principles of the Bologna Declaration, on the other hand, taking into account the socio-cultural context of modern Ukrainian sosiety. Constant updating of knowledge, technologies, teaching tools, organizational and management approaches is an integral component of the qualitative modernization of the education system and its development as the basis of self-reproduction and self-organization of society. A key role in Ukraine’s entry into the global space is played by institutions of higher education capable of adequately responding to the challenges of the times and establishing themselves as national scientific and educational centers of the European and world level. Key words: Bologna process, European educational space, globalization, integration, modernization, Penitentiary Academy of Ukraine, Chernihiv Polytechnic National University.

Художественно-публицистические и литературные тексты на страницах газеты «Новгородское вече» (1917–1918)

The article is devoted to artistic journalism and artistic publications in the newspaper “Novgorod Veche”, published in Novgorod from the autumn of 1917 to the summer of 1918. The newspaper publishers were V.S. Kolomensky and A.E. Gogolev, who were representatives of the Association of Cooperators Unions of the Novgorod Province. The content of this newspaper was devoted to the activities of the cooperative in the Novgorod province and country. The texts are mainly concerned with politics and economics, although the publication was of a universal type. “Novgorod Veche” was in opposition to the Bolshevik government. The creators of the publication relied on the self-organization of society and defended the legal right of the Constituent Assembly to determine the future of Russia, even despite the dispersal of the meeting by the Bolsheviks on January 7, 1918. The newspapers’ opposition was pamphlet through the publication of pamphlets and feuilletons, which discussed local and Russian events. The Bolsheviks and the political decisions they made were assessed negatively. According to the newspaper’s editors, the Bolshevik power aggravated the catastrophic situation within the country and at the international level. There are few literary texts in the newspaper “Novgorod Veche”: poems, stories, essays, literary criticism. A special place in the first issues of the newspaper is occupied by the column “Calendar of the Novgorod Assembly”, where V. Molochnikov intended to place quotes from wise men, as well as excerpts from books by L.N. Tolstoy.

Сучасні фактори впливу на глобальну публічну політику

The article analyzes the process of conceptual renewal of global public policy under the influence of factors that shape the new world reality and construct the meaningful content of the above-mentioned type of policy. Modern global public policy is the interaction of various institutionalized and noninstitutionalized actors of the political process (domestic, regional and international) regarding the identification and solution of problems facing the world community, based on the principles of hierarchical organization "from above" and self-organization of society "from below", freedom , broad communication, interest and mutual responsibility of the parties, with the involvement of intellectual expert centers, resources of states, organizations, global civil society and other international subjects. Global factors that influence the dynamics of the development of the public process at the global level are analyzed. It is noted that in conditions of increased informatization, development of new technologies, ongoing globalization of the world economy, blurring of national-state borders, increased conflict, emergence of new problems in the field of ecology, health care, etc., the agenda is objectively expanding and becoming more complicated , transformation of international and state political institutions, change of roles and functions of most actors at the national, regional and global levels, development of new strategies for collective problem solving. In the course of the study, it was established that global factors influence the renewal of the conceptual content of public policy and the objective renewal of national strategies for the development of systems. It was noted that the structural factors and trends of social development will affect Ukraine to a greater or lesser extent, and therefore it is necessary to focus attention on increasing national stability and determining effective ways of countering a wide range of risks and threats.

Традиция в посттрадиционном мире: национальная литература как опыт пролонгации

The article examines the meaning behind the concept “tradition” as a factor in the self-determination of a national literature and its correlation with modernity. Implicit complementarity of tradition and modernity, repetition and renewal is one of the cornerstones of the sociocultural self-organization of society and culture. The proposed dynamic model is oriented towards a holistic approach: the substantial significance of tradition conceptually relates to its processual character and predisposition to creative prolongation. The existential meaning of tradition as a form of continuous collective memory most fully manifests itself in its literary reconstruction. Drawing from the work of V. Rasputin and F. Iskander that represent two different cultural traditions, the article traces intense interdependence of such dichotomies as “old / new” and “continuity / gap.” Within the framework of artistic actualization of the complementarity between the constant and the variable, tradition appears as an organic prerequisite of the national model of modernization.

Generalized Types of Geopolitical Models

The activity-geospatial approach as one of the most powerful interdisciplinary approaches in geopolitical research is considered. It provides a means of studying political phenomena in terms of the geospatial organization and self-organization of society, including its geopolitical organization. The key to this lies with the “geopolitical relation” category. It implies a unity of political activity and geographical space as well as an elementary subject for study. In the broader context, geopolitics is regarded as the political type of geo-adaptation of society. From this perspective, it is suggested that the following idealized types of geopolitical models be identified, namely: natural-geographical, socio-geographical, activity-related, and chronogeopolitical. A generalized logic of their construction is shown. The natural-geographical type describes a coercive determination of the characteristics of the geopolitical actor caused by natural phenomena as well as geo-adaptational pressure produced by them. The socio-geographical type reflects the influence of socio-geographical space (economic, civilizational, ethnic, etc.) on the characteristics of the geopolitical actor. Activity-related models characterize the interaction process between any geographical factors and the activity of particular geopolitical actors as well as results of such an interaction, i. e. the spatial forms of political phenomena. If such models are applied to several actors, they will overlap and identify common geopolitical regions. Graphical schemes of generalized geopolitical models are presented.

Роль територіальних громад у процесі становлення інституту демократичної громадянськості в Україні.

This study identifies features of functioning of territorial communities in modern Ukraine as agents of institutionalization of democratic citizenship. Territory is a static factor in a successful community development model, and citizenship is a dynamic factor, which is personalized in teams that work together to work together for mutual benefit. Collective citizenship in the image of territorial communities is determined by the agent of the institutionalization of democratic citizenship. The legitimacy of recognizing democratic collective citizenship as a political institute and community is affirmed, while the synthesis of socio-cultural and strategic factors of community development is a necessary condition for its involvement in contemporary politics as a political actor. The works of domestic and foreign authors on the studied topic are analyzed, in particular the work of Elinor Ostrom «Managing the Common. The evolution of collective action institutions. Among the research methods are the author’s research on the topic of self-government in recent years (2002-2018) and the generalization of his own experience of deputy activity. The importance of uniting territorial communities for their ability to be successful is emphasized. The indicator of the development of collective citizenship as a community is defined by territorial and national identity. In particular, territorial identity plays a leading role in reforming local self-government, territorial organization of the state, and self-organization of society. Emphasis is placed on the importance of adhering to scientifically grounded legislation and procedures for the unification of territorial communities. Recommendations are given on the effectiveness of further development of territorial communities, among which priorities are identified: strengthening of collective solidarity, financial stability and enhancement of civic competence.

Effects and feelings as the basis of human autonomous poseism and as a "mechanism" for the self-organization of social ontology

In the monograph are analyzed individual, locally-group and global levels of public self-organization in the context of correlation of rational and irrational factors of self-organization of society; the correlation of anthropological and axiological motivation of public activity. The features of self-organization and of intersubjective interactions in the context of synergic autopoiesis, that is based on the synergy of somatics, psyche and spirit are investigated. The synergic unity of a man in the context of somatics, psyche and spirit and its phenomenological essence are signified.

Криза «мозаїчного» мультикультуралізму та деліберативна модель демократії

У статті проаналізовано основні проблеми сучасного полікультурного суспільства, а також виявлено негативні сторони політико-філософської парадигми мультикультуралізму, що ведуть до кризи в поліетнічному соціумі. Продемонстровані недоліки «мозаїчного» мультикультуралізму на прикладах концепцій Ч. Тейлора та У. Кімлики. Виявлені основні помилки мультикультуралістів щодо інтерпретації культури, яка представляється стабільною цілісністю. і в розумінні суспільства, що розглядається як конгломерат монолітних одиниць. Проаналізовані негативні наслідки такого підходу: соціальна фрагментація та підміна особистої самоідентифікації груповою приналежністю. З опорою на теорію С. Бенхабіб розкривається комунікативна природа культури, що розуміється як сукупність наративів з проникними межами. Обґрунтовано необхідність дотримання принципів деліберативної демократії, що має сприяти вищому ступеню інтерсуб’єктивності процесів взаєморозуміння та спонтанної самоорганізації в суспільстві. Проаналізовано концепцію Ю. Габермаса, яка розглядає деліберативну теорію демократії як синтез важливих елементів республіканської та ліберальної моделей, крайнощі яких можуть бути згладжені в рамках деліберативної теорії. Представлено обгрунтування деліберативної концепції демократії, як найбільш відповідної моделі умовам багатошарового плюралізму.

The Self-Organisation of Society

The aim of this paper is to outline some aspects of the self-organisation of society based on a dialectical methodology. On a very general level, society can be characterised as a re-creative system: By mutual productive relationships of social structures and actors, society can based on human activity and creativity reproduce itself. Social structures are medium and outcome of social actions. This is a synchronous description. Describing society in a diachronic way, one can say that new order emerges in phases of instability and crisis. Society can also be described as the unity of different qualitative moments such as production, consumption, distribution, politics and culture because human activity results in more permanent qualitative moments. A dialectical analysis of society means to consider societal existence as a development process. Dialectics means concretisation and speculation. Hence by ascending from the abstract to the concrete (from the logic of essence to the logic of notion), we discuss the economic self-organisation cycle of capitalism. This process of capital accumulation results in the estrangement and exploitation of the human being by the human being. Capitalist society is not a naturally given pattern, but a historical system. The human being has the ability to consciously behave towards the world, hence it's possible to change the societal conditions in such a way that true, well-rounded individuality can fully unfold.

Self-Organisation of Society by Scale: A Spatial Reworking of Regulation Theory

The scaling of social systems gives rise to a ‘vertical’ ordering that combines with the more familiar ‘horizontal’ ordering by place. But so far this phenomenon has been examined mainly from a political standpoint, and has not as yet received an adequate regulationist treatment. The regulation approach is at heart a systems theory, whereby innovations in accumulation and regulation—whatever their origins—will tend to be selected and woven into a stable pattern if they contribute to the expanded reproduction of capital. It is argued here that the viability of regimes of accumulation, and of modes of regulation, depends in part upon whether an appropriate scale division of labour is established between their component activities. It is suggested from the analysis that it is possible on this basis to develop a regulationist account of the fundamental tendency towards the integration and division of societies at different scales, and the emergence of dominant societal units in each epoch.
