The paper analyzes the current situation in the world during the coronavirus pandemic, in particular, the general trend to border closure, isolation, national selfishness, increase in total control, and "secucracy". The paper puts forward a question of reinterpretation of the significance of material values; actualization of post-material values: friendship, love, respect for the Other, self-actualization, family, and environmental values. Based on P. Sorokin's model of universal altruism, the value shift amidst the pandemic has been analyzed. It is proved that during the severe periods of human development the values of natural law, namely the right to life, the right to health, the right to freedom assume great importance.
УДК 323 ДОДОНОВ РОМАН, доктор філософських наук, професор, виконуючий обов'язки завідувача кафедри філософії Донецького національного університету, м. Вінниця, голова відділу внутрішньоцивілізаційних конфліктів Українського інституту стратегій глобального розвитку і адаптації КРИЗА, ВІЙНА ЧИ КОНФЛІКТ-ЯК КОРЕКТНО НАЗИВАТИ ПОДІЇ НА СХОДІ УКРАЇНИ? У статті розглядаються найбільш часто вживані в публіцистиці поняття, що претендують на узагальнене найменування подій, які відбуваються на Сході України. Аналізується зміст понять "криза", "війна", "гібридна війна", "агресія", "конфлікт". Доводиться, що з урахуванням наявності чинників внутрішнього розколу та зовнішньої агресії гібридного характеру найбільш коректним буде використовувати категорію "конфлікт". Це дозволить задіяти потенціал конфліктологічної парадигми сучасної соціології та уточняти цілі й засоби, суб'єкти й об'єкти східноукраїнського конфлікту. При цьому залежно від рівня (локального, національного, цивілізаційного, глобального) одні й ті самі соціальні спільноти, групи, інститути й особистості можуть виступати як суб'єкти і як об'єкти конфлікту.
The article is devoted to the research of dynamics of the social structure of Ukrainian society in the period after the Revolution of Dignity in 2013-2014. The authors try to identify the leading tendencies of the middle class transformation, the basis for stability and guarantees of the irreversibility of democratic transformations in postmaidan Ukraine. The large-scale program of social transformation, proclaimed by the Ukrainian government (62 reforms), could not be implemented due to lack of essential resources, Russia's aggression in Donbas and an acute crisis of public trust to the government. The national middle class responded with quantitative reductions and qualitative changes in its composition. The factors influencing this process have been analyzed, in particular: the extraordinary concentration of large financial capital, genetically related to power; maintaining essential state regulation in the economy; increase of the share of social expenditures of the state in support for the lower stratum; increased migration activity of Ukrainians after obtaining a visa-free regime with the EU; social mobility in the labor market, precarization; reduction of working age rural population; influence of the informal (shadow) economy; decentralization of power; socio-political factors. It can be concluded that the middle class in postmaidan Ukraine has already realized its "social self," but cannot realize its activity-structural potential yet.
This article is devoted to the analysis of the directions and logical stages of the institutionalization of historical memory in Ukraine. It is proved that the stages of institutionalization and their «closed» questions of history are attracting intellectuals, independent history researches as well as journalist investigations. This entails the necessity to restore truth and justice, establish norms and rules making historical information publically available, including declassification of archives, conducting expeditions in the places of mass graves, establishing new and reviving old memorial sites, revision of the national heroes pantheon, introducing various programs aimed at studying spoken history, inclusion of history memory content into the textbooks of educational institutions; adoption of the relevant norms at the legislative level and imposition of sanctions on non-compliers; and finally, the creation of the National Memory Institute.
