The Russian World and the System of National Values in the Social Philosophy of Russia

Introduction. This study examines the peculiarity of the phenomenon of the “Russian world” as a complex socio-value phenomenon of the existence of the Russian society. From the time of ancient Russian society to the present, many important value dominants of “Russianness” retain their identity and relevance. Russian social thought has clearly identified the main axiological themes of modernity: collectivism, spirituality, religiosity, and the traditional nature of human social existence. The purpose of the article is to comprehensively analyze the issues of the correlation of the national values of Russians and the ideas of the “Russian world” in the socio-philosophical context of the Russian philosophical tradition. Materials and Methods. The issues of a systematic and integrated approach to the problems of identifying the specifics of Russian philosophy and its representation of the phenomenon of the value dominants of the Russian world are methodologically quite debatable. However, most of the concepts of social philosophy in Russia in this regard analyze this issue from a value-normative position. The comparative-historical and complex approaches in the methodology of solving the problems of research of the “Russian world” are considered important. The results of the study. The specifics of the topic under consideration affect both socio-axiological and socio-cultural trends in the development of Russian society from its origins to the present day. The systematic resolution of the polemics around the phenomena and elements of the “Russian world” in philosophy and historical science is concentrated in the perspective of the continuous development of Russian social thought. This feature allows us to reveal the value of traditionalism and continuity of the Russian society. Discussion and Conclusion. In the context of dynamically changing trends of our time, it is important to identify the current issues of preserving the traditions and value “codes” of Russian society. The problems of continuity and influence of the ideas of the “Russian world” had a significant impact on the social thought of Russia. Many of the value bases of the existence of Russians have proved vital to this day: collectivism, spirituality, and tradition are an important asset of public Russian thought.

Research of college student’s national values trends

The key task of modern education is the education of student youth, their formation as competent professionals, citizens of the Fatherland with a stable civil patriotic position, who appreciate national values, are ready and able to protect the interests and borders of their Fatherland. In modern conditions, the formation of national self-consciousness among students of secondary vocational educational institutions involves arming them with a system of national values and patriotic value orientations. In this article the author, based on the approaches of domestic scientists and the conducted scientific research, has made a creative attempt to determine the list of national values of student youth.

Formation of National Idea as A Factor of National Security of The State as Part of The State and Administrative Dimension

The article systematizes approaches to the concept of defines that the national idea, first, shapes people's sense of being a single nation; second, it is an undeniable unifying constant in society; thirdly, it is acceptable to all communities and populations of the country; fourth, it is a consequence of the historical development of the ethnos and the nation; Fifth, it is based on a system of national values and linked to national culture; sixth, it is a strategic goal that must unite the nation and create the conditions for further positive developments and actions. The authors argue that for the existence and formation of a national idea, the following conditions must be realized: a) there must be an independent Ukrainian state as a form of organization and foundation of vitality of the Ukrainian nation, which is an aggregate of ethnic groups, or, if the state does not exist, it must exist in the minds of the Ukrainian people the will to self-determination, which is realized in one's own national liberation struggle; b) there must be an understanding of the Ukrainian people as a community of ethnicities, a nation separate from other nations, that is, having distinct, specific, purely national cultural features that do not coincide with those of other nations. After all, people who have lost their national traits are a denationalized people. The national idea is the basis for the formation of a national culture that influences not only national identification but also the processes of reforming and modernizing all spheres of society.

Meta-concept “language” in the newspaper publication of V. Rasputin of the late 1980s — early 1990s: Cognitive-praxeological aspect

In this article, the manifestants of meta-concept “language” in the problematic articles and essays of V. Rasputin of the perestroika era are correlated with the system of national and spiritual values described in connection with the problems of publications, the author’s intentions and the format of the newspaper Literary Irkutsk of the Irkutsk Regional Writers’ Organization. It is noted that the representatives of meta-concept “language” are included in the historical-philosophical, church-religious, national-cultural analytics and artistic journalism of Rasputin in connection with the educational, ideological, spiritually creative attitudes of the author and the corporate publication. It has been established that mental entities that are conceptually important for the author’s journalism (memory, providence, prediction, conceptually formed ideas) are metonymically objectified using the concepts “word” and “speech”. The elaboration and objectification of the author’s philosophical, moral attitudes occurs through the conjugation of the nuclear, cicumnuclear and peripheral areas of the concepts “word”, “language” with the images of the material world and the objectivity of social relations. The inclusion of spiritual space in the consciousness of the reader and the national picture of the world, the device of metaphysical communicative-semiotic systems and modeling of the monastic language is created in publications using the concept of “language”. Self-awareness and ideological searches of society, intellect and spiritual culture of the people, their creative achievements, ideological attitudes are illustrated by metonymic and metaphorical correlation with the field of auditory sensations of the interpretive field of the concept “sound”. From a praxeological standpoint, the author’s communicative and stylistic techniques as well as pragmatically oriented editorial technologies consisting of the selection of the editorial team and the system of rotation of the editors-compilers were evaluated. It is shown that the model of a joint search for values by the public, the publicist and the publication increased the cognitive potential of newspaper materials and strengthened the reader’s confidence in the local corporate press.

МИФ О ВЕЧНОМ ВОЗВРАЩЕНИИ В РОМАНЕ Е.Д. АЙПИНА «В ПОИСКАХ ПЕРВОЗЕМЛИ»

The title of the new novel by the Yugra writer Eremey Aipin In Search of the Primordial Land, first published in Russian in 2019, contains an obvious reference to the cultural tradition and suggests the possibility of a scholarly reading of a literary text from the perspective of mythopoetics. The novel organically continues the attitude characteristic of all Aipin’s previous works. This attitude clearly discerns the writer’s desire to see the essence of modern life realities through the prism of traditional values enshrined in the myths and legends of his people. In Aipin’s artistic picture of the world, myth does not just appear as one of its elements. It enters the very flesh of this world, constitutes its foundation, its pivotal ontological and axiological axis. Aipin does not limit himself to the role of a popularizer of the mythological repertoire of the Khanty people. On the basis of traditional images, plots and motives, he builds his own mythological paradigm, in which the system of national and universal values is superimposed on the personal life experience of the author and his heroes. This fundamentally determines the basic principles of Aipin’s artistic expression organization. The article aims to reveal the meaning-forming role of the myth of the eternal return in Aipin’s In Search of the Primordial Land and to characterize the means of its artistic actualization in the text. During the research, the results of the latest developments in the field of philological regional studies and mythopoetics were taken into account. The analysis of the novel in the context of the traditional culture of the indigenous peoples of Yugra shows that Aipin inextricably connects reflections on the historical fate of Russia with the fate of a person. Despite the fact that the novel is based on the dramatic events of a worldwide scale, it is full of high optimistic sound. According to Aipin’s idea, Russia, which is at the turn of the millennium, is experiencing a situation of the “second world flood”, since the human community lost its spiritual values. The protagonist of the novel is the artist Matvey Taishin. He goes through difficult life trials, but acquires the desired sense of being; he finds it in love and in the awareness of the need to continue life. Using the example of Taishin, Aipin convincingly demonstrates that the revival of Russia is impossible without recognizing its cultural and spiritual origins, without moving towards its own metal Primordial Land. It is this saving path, based on the return to the eternal, timeless values, that will give Russia the opportunity to realize its historical destiny and overcome the state of chaos and decay. The article is the first experience of a conceptual and contextual analysis of Aipin’s In Search of the Primordial Land in Russian literary criticism, which constitutes the novelty of the research.

Application of hybrid MCGDM model combined with VIKOR method in power grid equipment optimization

The evaluation index of national grid equipment procurement source value system has multi-dimensional, multilateral and multi-attribute characteristics which can cause problems, in order to solve these problems and find out optimize grid equipment suppliers, this paper put forward a hybrid multi-criteria group decision-making (HMCGDM) model combined with VIKOR algorithm. Firstly, constructing the index stereo network and introducing the intuitionistic fuzzy number (IFN) into the model in order to avoid the hard division of the decision judgment matrix. Secondly, using the ANP algorithm to calculate the joint-edge relationship value of each index at individual layers, and constructing the weighted super matrix to calculate the subjective weight value of the bottom indexes. Then, calculating the objective weight value of the bottom evaluation index by using Entropy method, and combining it with the subjective weight value to modify the overall weight value. Finally, using the VIKOR algorithm to rank the alternative programmes, and making comparison with the model formed through the TOPSIS method. The results show that the VIKOR algorithm can calculate the weight values of the bottom indexes in the complex relational network objectively and effectively, and having a good applicability for the equipment optimization.

HUMAN AND NATIONAL VALUES EDUCATION OF FUTURE TEACHERS WHILE STUDYING THE COUIRSE OF COMPARATIVE PEDAGOGY

The article presents theoretical and practical aspects of students’ education of the pedagogical university of human and national values in studying the discipline “Comparative pedagogy”. The essence of the concepts of “human” and “national values” has been considered. The relationship between the notions of “human” and “national values” and modern state formation in Ukraine has been characterized. The role of education of human and national values in the personality’s formation of the future teacher has been determined. It has been proved that the development of students’ personality implies the assimilation of the system of human and national values, which form the basis of their spiritual culture. It is emphasized that the implementation of human and national values in the educational process is of great social importance since the successful solution of this important problem depends largely on the prospects of humanizing education. The meaning of which is to ensure the conscious choice of the personal spiritual values and to form on their basis a consistent, individualistic system of student youth’s humanistic values, which characterize their motivational and value attitude to the world.The role of comparative pedagogy in the professional development of a new generation teacher who will become Ukrainian by cultural background and globalized in terms of professional competence has been revealed.

Domestic and Foreign Approaches to Working with Foreign students: “Personnel Reserve” vs “soft Power”

The goal of this study is to reveal the country-specific features of approaches to working with international students, as well as to determine their key strategies. In the modern world, education is becoming a new platform for competition between states, because its function is not only to provide knowledge but also to form the consciousness and outlook of a young person. Accordingly, states seek through educational institutions to promote around the world their national development models, value systems and cultural elements. The ultimate goal of such a policy is the creation of a pool of staunch supporters around the world who after return to their homeland will relay the “gained knowledge” upon the society. However, are states only driven by this goal? Of course not — a lot of countries are focused on attracting foreign students to include the most talented and gifted of them in the national “personnel reserve”. The danger of the latter approach lies in the formation of constant dependence on “external brains”.

ОСОБЛИВОСТІ ЕТИМОЛОГІЇ ТА ЛЕКСИЧНОЇ СТРУКТУРИ АНГЛІЙСЬКИХ НАЗВ СТРАВ

The article considers such aspects of modern English vocabulary as the names of culinary dishes, food consumption and the history of their names. In modern conditions of intercultural communication the formation, strengthening of intercultural relations, specific features of each language come to the fore. Food itself is one of the main manifestations of cultural relationships today. That is why the study of various aspects of gastronomic discourse, which are influenced by different national cuisines in our rapidly changing modern world, is gaining new impetus. Under the gastronomic discourse in our work we understand a special kind of verbal and social discourse, the purpose of which is to achieve a certain type of communication. It is a piece of text or language related to the eating process in which the participants are considered, the conditions, the ways of communication, the environment in which the conversation takes place. In modern conditions of intercultural communication, the formation, strengthening of intercultural relations, specific features of each gastronomic preference have been formed over the centuries, and, of course, features such as geographical location, climate, religion, traditions and foundations, as well as economic factors could not affect them. . It is often enough to just look at what a person eats to determine where he comes from, what beliefs he has and what lifestyle he leads. It is known that the linguistic personality exists in a certain culture and has basic values – cultural concepts. The concepts that exist in the collective consciousness are essential for both the individual and for collective cultural identity in general. The problem of defining the concept of "food" as a cultural concept in modern language theory in the 21st century is of great interest to linguists and linguistic and cultural scientists. This concept in linguistic culture is one of the least studied and defined, although its meanings and cultural values ​​are quite high. The food and cuisine of any nation are integral to the language and are reflected in its vocabulary. In the system of national values, the cultural concept of "food" occupies one of the key places. This phenomenon can be viewed from different angles.

В статье на материале диалектных бранных номинаций женщин, их содержательных характеристик и семантических особенностей анализируются гендерные стереотипные представления о женщине, бытующие в современных русских говорах, а также предпосылки таких представлений как отражение системы национальных ценностей The purpose of the article is to describe some gender stereotypes which exist in modern Russian dialects and the factors contributing to them being traditional, re ecting the system of national values, and therefore steady and viable. In the research we rely on the analysis of the content semantics of dialectal abusive designations of women. The methodological basis of the research is the concept of a gender as a sociocultural construct, presented in works by a Russian genderologist A. V. Kirilina. Gender stereotypes are understood as culturally and socially caused opinions and presupposition on qualities, attributes and standards of behavior of therepresentatives of both sexes. Gender stereotyping is noted at all levels of the language, as well as its close connection with the forms of evaluation. The main part of the paper focuses on the dialectal abusive nominations of women which prove and explain the indisputable for the Russian collective consciousness idea of a woman being less valuable than a man, even doubting her status as a person. These are the abusive nominations indicating limited intellectual abilities of a woman: imbecility, stupidity, slowwittedness, dullness (толкушка / tolkushka, тулпеха / tulpyokha, тумашка / tukmashka, etc.) her natural negative traits: tendency to gossip (калитотиха / kalitotikha, лепетуха / lepetukha, любопытница / lyubopytnitsa, lyapalka / ляпалка, etc.), peevishness, cantankerousness, scandalousness (мельчиха / melchikha, мерлушка / merlushka, etc.), tendency to idle talk: (толкушка / tolkushka, турурушка / tururushka, чикалка / chikalka, etc.), those are the traits that exclude a woman from all elds of activity, except housekeeping and childbirth. The abusive nominations in this case are means of punishment for bearers of those traits which do not correspond to the serving nature of females work: sluggishness (трекша / treksha, рахля / rakhlya, etc.), slackness (разлемзя / razlemzya, тюхня / tyukhnya, etc.), laziness (околотница / okolotnitsa, клушка / klushka, легостайка / legostayka, etc.), incompetent (акуля / akulya, варакуша / varakusha, гатила / gatila, etc.), sloppy, careless (простыня / prostynya, простодыра / prostodyra, раздаваха / razdavakha, растащиха / rastashchikha). The author comes to a conclusion that the dialectal abusive nominations serve patriarchal gender stereotypic ideas of a woman and her status and speci cs of national and cultural consciousness of carriers of a dialect, which are in the mediated way of re ection of valuable reference points have strong roots in national public consciousness that promote their continuous reproduction

Musical environment and musical life

Relevance of the study concerns the frequent usage of the notions “musical environment” and “musical life” as synonyms. There isn’t also a common opinion in contemporary musicology about hierarchy, interrelationship and correlation of these phenomena: some of them think that “musical life” is the broadest notion by its meaning, other prefer “musical environment”.Main objective of the study is to find out correlation between “musical life” and “musical environment”, how they are formed and influence each other, by means of understanding the essence of the notions “musical environment” and “musical life”.Methodological basis of the study is system-structural approach. Also the following methods are used: analysis of scientific literature which helps to make a close study of the object of investigation using different fields of scientific knowledge; systematization and generalization used in order to find out connections and determination of studied phenomena; comparison – establishes likeness and difference between interpreting phenomena; logical – directed to realization of the studied material as a system with all the complicacy and diversity of structural-functional connections and dependences forming it.The study clarified that the term «environment» had two main meanings: they are existence conditions whereby musical environment is a condition for music to exist, and surrounding which determines musical environment as sound surrounding of individual. Musical environment, as any other environment, doesn’t exist without an object upon it influences and simultaneously it changes under the influence of the object activity. At the macro level musical environment includes the entire musical and sound atmosphere. At the micro level – it is a direct musical surrounding of a person wherever he is “here and now”. Musical environment is formed in conjunction with two basic factors: time factor which presupposes a certain historical period, and spatial factor connected with a country, region, established system of national values and traditions. Being generated in the context of musical activity musical environment includes all: varieties of music art; forms of music playing; existing music styles and genres; music compositions which are urgently used and which are in record formats, printed; and also authors of music product (composers), its “implementers” – performers, consumers (audience) and the whole set of institutions and organizations which promote keeping and spreading music product. The notion “musical environment” is versatile in the nomenclature of music art as it covers all the components of sound music space creation process and perception of this space. Due to a complex many-leveled structure organized according to the principle of correlation, interconnection and interdependency of the elements musical environment can be referred to systemic phenomena.Activity is found to be a distinctive feature of life. Musical life as activity consisting in creating artistic values is a way of art existence.Conclusions: On the basis of objective laws of universal character the following fact can be established: musical life is conditioned by the existence of musical environment as a set of conditions ensuring musical activity. Change of these conditions invariably leads to changes in the processes of creativity. At the same time, life is an open system permanently correlating and interacting with environment. That is why environment influences musical life as well as musical life affects forming of musical environment.

Professional practice-related training and organizational readiness for change facilitate implementation of projects on the national core value system in care of older people.

AimTo explore whether professional training contributed to implementation of the national core value system in practice in care of older people and to identify course participants' perceptions about factors that facilitated or obstructed them in implementing their projects. To identify participants' perceptions concerning factors that facilitate or obstruct implementation.DesignDescriptive and cross‐sectional.MethodsData were retrieved from 451 participants who had completed the course “Understanding and providing leadership based on the national core value system for older people” at Uppsala University during spring semester and autumn semester of 2018. Quantitative and qualitative data were obtained using a web‐based questionnaire.ResultsThe results showed that the majority (73%) of project plans were initiated, although not always completed and sometimes interrupted. Organizational readiness in terms of management supporting and prioritizing these plans were two principle facilitators chosen by half of the respondents and consequently the absence of these factors was an obstacle. In addition, successful implementation required dedicated co‐workers and certain resources, such as time and funds. Surprisingly, factors related to the project leader were reported to be of limited importance.
