Neural Network Algorithms in Current Processes of Transformation of Traditional Worldview and Ideological Systems.

This study is devoted to identifying potential risks, challenges, and threats of intensive development and active implementation of artificial intelligence technologies and in particular self-learning neural network algorithms in the current practice of socio-political communications associated with active information impact on mass consciousness. This study proves that contemporary digital technological transformations and the active spread of digital technologies most directly influence the transformation of traditional worldview systems and ideologies. Based on the results of the study, it is concluded that with the help of digital tools, there is a significant information and communication impact on mass consciousness in terms of influencing traditional worldview and ideological systems. In this regard, the author puts forward the thesis about the need to form and maintain the digital sovereignty of contemporary states as a key conclusion. It is viewed as a critical condition for preserving and protecting national worldview and ideological spaces in the conditions of current global technological transformations

Kant’s Philosophy and the Idea of the Self-Made-Man

Purpose. The authors of this article set the main purpose of understanding the ideological potential of Kant’s philosophical heritage from the viewpoint of its influence on the spread and legitimization of the self-made man idea in the worldview transformations of the modern world. Theoretical basis. Historical, analytical, and hermeneutic methods became fundamental for achieving the goal. The study is based on Kant’s works, as well as on the works of modern researchers of his ideological heritage. Originality. The analysis shows that the idea of the Self-made-man, which originated in the ancient world and gradually spread in the Western culture of the Middle Ages, early Modernism, and especially the Enlightenment, receives significant additional impulses in the context of Kant’s rethinking of the metaphysical foundations in the theory of knowledge and morality. Perhaps, the systematic theoretical substantiation of people’s abilities to use their own mind, their intellectual, and therefore moral autonomy, and freedom of will as the fundamental principles of personal Self-determination and Self-realization became the most important consequence of this rethinking. This, in turn, became the theoretical and moral-legal basis for further legitimization in the modern and postmodern world of the ideal of a person who creates oneself. Conclusions. The importance of Kant’s philosophy in the context of idea generation of the self-made man is hard to overestimate. It is entirely imbued with a leitmotif appeal to the individual to have the courage to use his/her own mind, to be independent and self-sufficient in assessments, choices, and actions, and therefore also responsible for their consequences, in the end, to be primarily an end, not a means. Thanks to this, a person, according to Hegel, finds an unconditionally strong and stable center in oneself. In fact, by strengthening the position of human-centric philosophy, as well as the moral and legal foundations of liberal humanism, Kant’s ideas provided further ideological legitimation in the orientation of an objectively growing individual towards actively placing Self-reliance and Personal responsibility on one’s own destiny as the key principles of the Self-made-man concept.

Художественное время в рассказе М. Кунафина «В деревню явится Аллах... или остановившееся время»

The article examines the artistic time and the features of its image, presented in the story of the Bashkir writer M. Kunafin. The purpose of the research is to identify the peculiar forms of the image of artistic time, to reveal its meaning to denote the creative task of the writer. The material for the analysis was the story «Allah will come to the village... Or Stopped time». To achieve this goal, cultural-historical and comparative methods were used. The scientific novelty lies in the study of the concept of time in M. Kunafin’s story. The analysis of the work makes it possible to clearly distinguish the forms of artistic time, which are represented as unreal time, future time, real time of the main character, accelerated time or «breakage of time counting» and slow-motion or stopped time, existing in the minds of his characters within the framework of the writer’s story. It is noted that M. Kunafin tries to give deep figurative content to oppositions and comparisons. The compositional technique helped the author to collect all forms of plot time around the hero’s dream. The semantic essence of the synthesis of unreal and real time acts as one of the main elements of the plot of the story. Real time does not always coincide with artistic time. The conclusions are drawn that the integral space of the work is represented by rural everyday life and characters who are immersed in traditional household ties, connecting the past, present and future. The concept of artistic time in M. Kunafin’s story implies its important function as a means of imaginative cognition of reality. It provides an opportunity to observe the process of worldview transformation and the acquisition of moral qualities of the characters. The results of the study contribute to the further study of the artistic features of the writer’s work.

Ignoring the role of reiterative processing and worldview transformation leads to exaggeration of the role of curiosity in creativity.

The Novelty-Seeking Model does not address the iterative nature of creativity, and how it restructures one's worldview, resulting in overemphasis on the role of curiosity, and underemphasis on inspiration and perseverance. It overemphasizes the product; creators often seek merely to express themselves or figure out or come to terms with something. We point to inconsistencies regarding divergent and convergent thought.

Methodological principles of national security of Ukraine: transformation of legislation and worldview

The article emphasizes the peculiarities of defining the conceptual foundations of the transformation of legislation and the worldview of civil society into national security policy during the struggle for the preservation of Ukrainian independence. Since the problem of ensuring national security is one of the most strategically important for the country’s development today. It focuses on the entire complexity of the transformation process in Ukraine, being both a condition and a goal of state reform. The condition is that deep transformations require the concentration of all forces and means on solving creative tasks. The condition is that deep transformations require the concentration of all forces and means on solving creative tasks. Their distraction to neutralize or parry threats significantly complicates, and sometimes makes impossible, successful progress along the chosen path. Ensuring national security to a certain extent is the goal of reform, the content of which should be subordinated to strengthening the sovereignty, territorial integrity of the country, creating internal and external conditions that guarantee stability and steady progressive development of the individual, society and the state. In particular, when defining national security, two approaches are distinguished: «in substance» – through the concept of «state of security» and «in form» – as a system of normative, organizational, institutional guarantees (measures) that ensure the stable development of constitutionalism, protection of the constitutional order. Combining these two approaches, it is possible to define national security in the most general form as a state of protection of the constitutional order and a system of normative, organizational, institutional guarantees (measures) that ensure its protection. Key words: national security, transformation of legislation, transformation of consciousness, methodological principles of security, threats to national security, challenges to national security, law, society, state

СТОЇЦИЗМ ЯК ФІЛОСОФІЯ ЕКЗИСТЕНЦІЙНОЇ СТІЙКОСТІ

The article is devoted to the consideration of stoicism as a philosophy of life, which is able to develop existential resilience in crisis conditions for human existence. The author notes that in order to preserve one's own world, a person must create "existential resilience", and philosophy gives him or her the grounds for this. Today, stoicism is being reinterpreted. It is transformed into a philosophy of life, which is best suited to modern man as a tool that, if used properly, allows one to live a decent life. What is important, this can be achieved regardless of the conditions in which a person has fallen. The modern human being is faced with many challenges that threaten his or her existence or distort existence with illusory values, post-truth, ideological constructs, and consumerism. The author notes that stoicism is a holistic philosophy of life that allows the development of a general understanding of the world and a person's place in it. Resilience is at the very core of the Stoic worldview. Stoicism sets a person in every tragic situation to be guided by virtues that will help overcome the misfortunes of fate. In the conditions of war, a person finds himself in a situation of emergency and extremeness. To outline this situation, the author refers to the understanding of the "boundary situation" in the existentialism of Karl Jaspers. The boundary situation captures the crisis states of a person, which lead to the actualization of the personal principle, worldview transformations, rethinking of the meaning of life, and experiencing the loss of self-identity. They remove a person from the captivity of everyday consciousness and awaken him. In addition, the reality of war is full of horror and anxiety. Therefore, a person is in a state of permanent anxiety about existence. The boundary situation is built into the structure of everyday life. War gives rise to the experience of horror, which can become a permanent state of everyday experience. The author demonstrates that the philosophy of stoicism allows quite effectively to overcome this anxiety and sense of horror. For this, the stoic philosophy of life suggests developing a fatalistic attitude toward everything that happens to us and around us. The Stoics suggest surrendering to fate. In fact, stoicism helps to form existential resilience, because it teaches us to accept events as they are, and at the same time allows us to think about what we can change. In the conditions of war, a person often faces death. One of the dimensions of existential resilience is the elimination of the fear of death. In this aspect of the formation of existential stability, stoicism can also become a suitable basis for a philosophy of life.

У ПОШУКАХ ВЛАСНОГО ПРОСТОРУ: ОБРАЗ ДОМУ В РОМАНІ НАТАЛІЇ ГУРНИЦЬКОЇ «МЕЛОДІЯ КАВИ У ТОНАЛЬНОСТІ КАРДАМОНУ»

The article focuses on the study of the image of the house in the novel by Natalia Hurnytska “Coffee Melody in Cardamom Tone”. The central theme of taboo love acts as a catalyst for the work's spatial content, and the house's motive becomes a tool for analyzing the inner world of the main heroine. The movement of the character illustrates her worldview transformation, while the mode of housing serves as a reflection of the nature of the owners. In the novel, the heroine is constantly in motion from one residence to another, each of which has distinct socio-psychological markers. The childhood home appears in retrospect as a carefree happy world. Uncle's house in Zhovkva takes on the function of family space only nominally, so the heroine symbolically leaves in search of her own home. Uncle Adam's home takes on the semantics of transcending social and moral taboos. Adam's apartment in Krakivska Str. is depicted as a transit place. Aunt Zosia's house is a hostile world that dictates the rules and truths of others. Mrs. Beata’s home is associated with a territory of stability. The house on Kastelivka appears through an erotic code. The house of Theresa is perceived as a rigidly regulated space. The apartment at Krakivska Str. is seen as a home of your own, protected from external threats. Adam's house is the main spatial element of the novel and functions in several emotional and meaningful manifestations: unjustified expectations, danger, shame, threat, protection, family comfort, and wasteland. The constant change of places of residence reflects the woman's attempt to find her own space.

Education as a homogenizing engine in indigenous cultures: case study of Aymara children in Northern Chile

Chile is a multi-ethnic Republic; a situation which contradicts itself when one looks at the relationship between the State and its ethnic groups, such as the Aymara in the North. One example of this is the implementation of a state-centric educational model which seems to be homogenizing. Taking a Children’s Geographies approach, the following work will analyze the specific types of relationships in educational institutions located in the Arica & Parinacota Region, between children from Aymara communities, the State, and adults. Through different qualitative investigative techniques, such as content analysis of drawings made by Aymara children, interviews made with teachers, and participant observation at schools, it seemed that the educational process that the Aymara children experience does not take their culture into consideration, which sets them apart from their parents’ and community’s identity. This study also uses the lens of Children’s Geographies to identify some landmarks in their spatial worldview transformation and their spatiality. Taking everything into account, conclusions are stated on how the normative educational model shapes uprooted children.

Worldview Transformation of Personality as Problem of Identity Formation in the Information Age

Worldview Transformation of Personality as Problem of Identity Formation in the Information Age

Lexical innovations with the root popolam (‘in half’) in the Russian gendered Internet discourse

The relevance of the study is underpinned by the modifications of the Russian society gender canon, the Russian gender worldview transformations and by the growth of importance of the communicative and linguocultural Internet space that constitutes the field of spontaneous social, psychological and linguistic experiments and also representative sources of information on the Russian-speaking men and women’s speech practices. The research is aimed at revealing and describing derivational, semantic and functional features of the 23 lexicographically undefined, engendered lexical units motivated by the adverb popolam (‘in half’) pointing at the extralinguistic situation of the financial responsibility dividing ina couple. The research is conducted on the material of the authors' contexts corpus including 1750 speech products manifesting informal Internet communication that were published inthe period from 2012 to 2022. The corpus contexts were obtained by continuous sampling method with the help of the Russian social network VK search engine and Google web search engine. The authors used methods of word-formation, semantic interpretation, contextual and discursive analyses and statistical method. The analysis has diagnosed that the constituents of the derivational nest with popolam- as the basis are used to nominate, categorize, characterize and evaluate masculine and feminine persons as participants in romantic, sexual and family relations. The innovations are also used to denote and characterize relationships in a couple from the point of view of financial responsibility division between partners. They are also used to designate actions and behavior types of participants in such relationships. The analysis proves that the innovations contain stable negative evaluation and are prevalent in woman's language. The analysis revealed that the functions of denomination, categorization and negative evaluation of the social interaction subjects and phenomena depend on the main ideological function of the innovations. The ideological function is increasingly important underthe circumstances of the conflict between patriarchal and new egaliterian gender contacts. It is determined that popolamshchik (‘slammer’) as a male denomination is not only the most widespread and important constituent but also a key word of the gendered Internet discourse.

National archetypes as a modus of resistance poetry in Russian-Ukrainian war

The purpose of the article is to reveal the types of national archetypes of resistance poetry created during the full-scale invasion 2022 of Russian-Ukrainian war.
 Poetry of the resistance of the first months of the full-scale invasion 2022 of Russian-Ukrainian war reflects the emotional upheaval of the nation, the conscious and unconscious perception of tragic events. This socio-cultural and spiritual phenome-non contributes to the worldview transformation of society, therefore the emergence foundations of war poetry of the highest quality deserve profound research.
 The methodology. Research with a use of the cultural-historical method based on the systematization and generalization of the researched material reveals national archetypes of war poetry.
 The results. The surge of poetic creativity in the genre of war poetry is explained, firstly, by the suffering during the first months of the war due to the internal conflict of the personality (“This cannot be for real!”) and the conflict returned from the outside (“This is unforgivable!”) Secondly, psychological traumas (losses of family and friends, homes, forced displacement, etc.) prompt the search for rescue beacons. Through the representation of the author’s worldview on tragic events, the individual, transformed at the level of artistic experience, becomes collective.
 The scientific novelty of the research lies in the fact that for the first time an analysis of the poetry of resistance of the first months of the full-scale invasion 2022 of Russian-Ukrainian war was carried out.
 Conclusions. The appeal to national archetypes became a modus of resistance poetry as a result of rethinking during the period of upheaval of the cultural paradigm and the search for ways of national identification.

ЦИФРОВИЗАЦИЯ И СТИЛЬ ПОЛИТИЧЕСКОГО МЫШЛЕНИЯ

Digitalization in this article is considered as a mechanism for the formation, influence and transformation of public opinion, as a tool for "programming" the style of political thinking. In this article, the key issue is the relationship of processes: scientific and technical and socio-political. The need to study the use of the achievements of scientific and technological progress in various spheres of public life, including political, seems relevant. It is noted that digitalization in the modern world can be used as a powerful ideological weapon, serve as a platform for the dissemination of fake information, support for the culture of cancellation, Russophobic sentiments, cloning of modern forms of ostracism. The analysis of the characteristic features of the modern style of political thinking is carried out, it is emphasized that digitalization can influence the processes of transformation of a person's worldview, his way of thinking, style of political thinking.

Покоління z як предтеча майбутньої планетарної цивілізації

The article analyzes the features of “Generation Z” as a harbinger of future planetary civilization. Attention is paid to information and digital technologies that affect the world community, rapidly transforming it into a single world, forming a “digital generation” that is effectively adapted to the new socio-cultural reality and feels more “citizens of the world” than their own country. The article analyzes the features of “Generation Z” as a harbinger of future planetary civilization. Attention is paid to information and digital technologies that affect the world community, rapidly transforming it into a single world, forming a “digital generation” that is effectively adapted to the new socio-cultural reality and feels more “citizens of the world” than their own country. The most important condition for their socialization is the construction of social reality, adaptation to new environmental conditions, its symbolization, separation of “their world”, restructuring of environmental conditions according to the thesaurus, built under the influence of macro- and microsocial factors, according to its symbolic universe. The interconnected processes of globalization and informationalization of society are revealed, which directly blur the boundaries of the modern interstate system, creating a contradictory and heterogeneous global society with a cosmopolitan worldview. The cosmopolitan approach is substantiated, which, overcoming state borders, allows to go beyond national practices, promotes their integration into the new world context through the establishment of a “compromise” of cultural, religious, ethnic and other differences. Cosmopolitanism is becoming a worldview and ideological platform and ontological unity of the planetary community. The modern generation needs to find its own way of mastering society. In order to understand the vicissitudes and metamorphoses of the modern world, we need a different perception of reality and the transformation of worldviews, values, the formation of a new identity. It is important not only to act locally, but also to think globally, systematically, taking into account particular and universal interests, immediate and long-term goals. The formation of a single world community, the formation of a global civil society, which in the long run must necessarily be formed as a result of overcoming fragmentation and the formation of a holistic world – „eternal peace” is becoming increasingly apparent.

Wiersz jako rzecz. Rzecz o poezji Wacława Tkaczuka

Wacław Tkaczuk (1942–2018) was one of the most important commentators on Polish poetry after 1989, which is best exemplified in his radio broadcast series “Poems from newspapers and magazines” (Polish Radio Program 2, 1991–2014). The author of the article introduces Tkaczuk’s poetry (three volumes of poetry, publications in literary magazines), tries to reconstruct the poet’s creative process and, more importantly, his world-view transformations.

Information revolution: socioanthropological and worldview transformations

It is shown that the critical factor in the modern reality is not only the emergence of a new information and communication field, radically transforming the usual infrastructure of social life, but also the explosive growth of the speed of change caused by the rapid development of digital technology. Attention is drawn to the qualitative leap in the speed of development, which refers to the transition to a reality where radical changes in technological infrastructure and the resulting changes in the life of society began to occur repeatedly in the course of a single human life, in real time. It is argued that as a result of the information revolution a new order of uncertainty has arisen, which requires a new way of thinking on the part of man. The problem of minimally correct forecasting in the main spheres of social being is analyzed.

Вплив Арнольда Шенберга на музичну стилістику XX–XXI століття Лебідь Юлія Вплив Арнольда Шенберга на музичну стилістику XX–XXI століття

The article analyzes the specifics of Arnold Schoenberg's creative method. Attention is paid to the periodization of his work. Schoenberg was not the first composer, who invents the dodecaphonic technique, but he gave it a complete and logical expression. The arrival of the dodecaphonic system was not a certain experiment or coincidence. It is part of a natural process that resulted from the gradual transformation of the composer's worldview. The composer in some works that belong to the late period of creativity, combining elements of different styles, without striving to adhere to a single style. This factor further confirms the thesis that in the foreground for Schoenberg, was the artistic truth and authenticity of the statement. A. Schoenberg is convinced that only a composer who has a large auditory baggage can turn to the dodecaphonic method, because the use of dodecaphony introduces many restrictions. It is determined that the exclusive role of Schoenberg is to form a school whose representatives worked in a single direction. Among his students, it is worth mentioning, in addition to A. Webern and A. Berg, also Ernst Kshenek, Egon Welles, Hans Eisler, Stefania Turkevich. The formation of dodecaphonic technique, its design within the activities of representatives of the Novoviden school, occured simultaneously with the work of other composers. It is emphasized that the technique of twelve sounds was introduced at the same time by by the Ukrainian composer Yu. Golyshev. The leading importance of dodecaphonic technique for further academic art is emphasized. The systematic activity - theoretical, compositional and teaching of A. Schoenberg, allowed the dodecaphonic technique to become a model that other creators have already tried at their own discretion. The dodecaphonic technique used by many composers of the Western European tradition, as well as by Ukrainian artists, in particular V. Silvestrov, L. Grabovsky and Yu. Ishchenko.

Regional literary almanas of the USSR on the threshold of the sixt (1954—1959)

The presented article raises the problem of worldview transformations of the Soviet era. We are talking about changes associated with the era of "thaw", when on the initiative of the new leader of the CPSU M. Khrushchev Soviet society began to break free from Stalin's shackles of repressive pressure on consciousness, resulting in a whole galaxy of extraordinary thinkers of the word. The purpose of the author's research was to conduct a content analysis of literary journals and almanacs published during 1954—1959 in the regional branches of the Writers' Union of Ukraine. The author's attention includes publications stored in the funds of the State Archive of Printing of the Book Chamber of Ukraine named after Ivan Fedorov, in particular, such magazines as: "Kharkiv", "Crimea", "Literary Odessa", "Literary Donbass", "Literary Rivne Region", "Carpathians", "Lights of Zaporizhia", "Literary Podillya", "Lights of Dnieper", "Dоnbass", "Steppe", "Khmelnytsky Almanac", "Literary Sevastopol", etc. The author tried to combine the substantive characteristics of the latter into headings and, if possible, to classify them. Among the established and widely marked in all regional periodicals of the then Ukraine sections, first of all, the historical and local lore, literary and local lore, documentary and amateur directions were revealed and processed. In addition, the author paid attention to the bibliographic parameters of the regional periodicals of the USSR in 1954—1959, namely, circulation (in the annual dynamics of circulation), subscription campaigns, sales of magazines by means of retail trade, the cost of magazines and more. The presented article analyzes in detail the composition of the editorial boards of these publications. Given the low circulation of journals processed by the author, we can talk about their rarity and underutilization in the research field of modern Ukraine.

Scientific data, ecological conversion and transformative affect

Scientific data supporting rational arguments for human-made causes of climate and environmental changes might be persuasive in some contexts. Law, policy, activism and The Earth Charter similarly appear insufficient to change attitudes and behaviours. Even biblical and theological arguments fail to move some Christians beyond apathy and climate denial. Decades of ecological theology and calls for ecological conversion suggest that appeals to reason and facts are limited without an affective epistemology that join knowledge and experience to produce worldview transformation through emotions, such as awe.Contribution: Departing from appeal to scientific data and arguments alone, the primary claim is that ecological conversion is not singularly a rational act. For broader engagement and action to mitigate climate and environmental degradation, experiential and affective encounter with nature promise wider participation and transformation.

Educating During the Great Transformation

During this shifting of historical epochs, the “usual ways of doing things” is catalysing existential questions about the survival of humanity. Yet, it is precisely these points of severe disruption where the creation of something more complex and life-giving can evolve. In this article, we explore how the dominant Separation Paradigm has created the current disruptive socio-natural conditions. Individuals and societies steeped within the Separation Paradigm are unwittingly destructive, because they do not perceive, and thus unintentionally sever, the incomprehensibly relational nature of our universe. We summarise the overarching dynamics of the Separation Paradigm and critique how existent learning processes, including sustainability education, are reproducing the Separation Paradigm. A salve to the diverse manifestations of Separation, we describe multiple sources of the Relationality Paradigm as well as implications for relational ways of knowing and being, through an interweaving of theoretical and personal vignettes. Finally, we sketch the implications of a possible worldview transformation for educators and processes of education, particularly within transformative sustainability education.
