The article presents the problem of studying the origins of the theory and practice of information in Ukraine at the beginning of the 20th century. The hypothesis concerning the orientation of the national, mainly socio-humanitarian science, to the summing up of the accumulated knowledge in the historical time of the state creation of the Ukrainian nation is formulated. The views of the leading figures of the Ukrainian science on the tasks of the first weight in the scientific work on the creation of various types and sources of information (bibliographic) sources are outlined. The activities of the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences (UAN) in the period of its organizational structuring of 1918-1932 years are described separately along the way of creation of the information base on the national science "Ukrainian bibliographic repertoire". The attention was paid to the administrative activities of the UAN on the structuring of scientific institutes, committees of commissions, bureau and their functions of bibliographic summarization of the thematic and branch directions of Ukrainian science. The peculiarities of the bibliographic strategy of the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences as revealed by the national versus the information strategy of the USA in the direction of communication technologies of the 1930s were revealed. The presented facts of the historical context concerning the first germs of the organization of system bibliographic activity in Ukraine allow the creation of original, socio-humanitarian knowledge regarding the formation of a national school of computer science in Ukraine, led by academician V. Glushkov in the second half of the twentieth century. The prospect of such a scientific vision of the history of computer science in Ukraine is due to modern research in the field of information philosophy.

The purpose of writing this article is to provide a conceptual overview of the main ideas and doctrines in the field of land law, which were being researched and substantiated by employees of the Faculty of Law / Institute of Law of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv during 30 years of independence, outlining the main achievements of land law and their practical implementation during this period. The main research method was the analysis and systematization of scientific research at the institutes of land law as a branch of law, science and academic discipline. The method of historical analysis helped to understand the historical and legal preconditions for the formation of a team of specialists who during the times of independent Ukraine were successfully working in land and related branches of law at Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv. In conclusion, it is noted that scientists of the Faculty of Law / Institute of Law of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv worthily have represented and developed land law as a branch, science and academic discipline since the very beginning of Ukraine's independence. Within the limits of this article it is not possible to show in full the scientific achievements of the employees of the Faculty of Law / Institute of Law of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv and their students during the time of independent Ukraine. But the described main scientific achievements emphasize the significant contribution of land law science of the Faculty of Law / Institute of Law of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv to the development of the science of land law of independent Ukraine. Due to the active position of the teaching staff at the Faculty of Law / Institute of Law of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, there grew a worthy scientific constellation of researchers, teachers, practitioners and statesmen, whose main scientific interest was land law with its practical implementation and improvement.

Based on the ideas of historicism and continuity in the development of political and scientific concepts, the article traces the influence of the Cyril and Methodius concept on the creation of an independent state on the principles of respect of the national identity of the Ukrainian people, its leading role in liberating all Slavic peoples from the tsarist government and choosing democratic institutions and the structure of the state following the example of the Federation of North American States. On this basis, the further humanistic tradition of Ukrainians in creating their own military sphere is revealed. Insufficient attention to it had led to sad consequences - the inability to defend the revolutionary achievements of the civil war in the 20s of the last century, the defeat of the national liberation armed resistance to the Stalinist-Bolshevik regime of 30-40's XX centuries in Western Ukraine, the lack of modern military doctrine at the intersection of the XX - XXI centuries and a weakened military organization, which at first could not adequately resist Russian aggression in eastern Ukraine.
However, the positive influence of the Methodists on this part of the national spirit and existence was to foster a new generation of fighters, humanists, scientists to activism and the creation of a theory (doctrine) of the Ukrainian national military sphere. The concept of the Cyril and Methodius was a synchronous liberation movement of Ukrainians together with other Slavic peoples, to jointly oppose the tsar and rely on the strength of the armed people, without elaborating on the army, military organization in general. According to the methodological guidelines, to evaluate the achievements of predecessors not by mistakes, but by what had been done, the humanistic tendency of prominent members of the society to struggle for the freedom in Ukraine is revealed. Cyril and Methodius inspired (Ipokrena) a new generation of fighters, humanists, scientists of the "Kiev" military-theoretical school to substantiate the peculiarities of the Ukrainian national military sphere.
The next generation of Ukrainian thinkers managed to realize the urgent need to create the theoretical foundations of the military sphere on the borderline synthesis of democracy, humanism, revolutionary romance of members of the Cyril and Methodius Society with strict requirements of military necessity.

The article explores the concepts, features and directions for the development of intellectual property science at the present stage. The basic scientific schools of intellectual property law are analysed, the specifics of their formation and genesis are considered. The article emphasizes that the science of intellectual property law is a system of knowledge and theoretical ideas about the laws of legal regulation of relations in the field of protection of intellectual and creative activities, interpretation of legal norms and the results of analysis and generalization of their application. As intellectual property right, the science of intellectual property law is a relatively young field in the legal system; however, it already has a long history of development, well-known representatives and scientific schools, including those pertaining to Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv. The development of intellectual property science in Ukraine is based on several scientific schools in Kyiv, Odessa, Lviv and Kharkiv, which are represented by powerful research centres and educational institutions. The Kyiv School of Intellectual Property is formed by two research centres: the Department of Intellectual Property and Information Law of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv and the Research Institute of Intellectual Property of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. The origin and development of the science of intellectual property law in Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv is associated with the figure of the famous domestic scientist O.A. Hills. Since 2013, the Department of Intellectual Property and Information Law has been operating at the Faculty of Law of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv. At the current stage, the Department of Intellectual Property and Information Law jointly with the Scientific and Educational Centre for Intellectual Property of Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv make a powerful centre of the development of intellectual property law science in Ukraine. Keywords: intellectual property, science, methodology, legal category, scientific school, scientist.

The author investigates the organizational measures of modern Ukrainian society on the way of forming an effective system of science in accordance with the requirements of civilization development. Chronological boundaries of the study - the beginning of the nineteenth century until the present. The methodological basis for the study is the theoretical concept of the cyclical development of historical phenomena in relation to the world and local cultural spaces. The research is aimed at the cultural view of the modern problem of the modernization of the institute of science within the historically formed educational and scientific spaces of Ukraine. Taking a public view of the functioning of science in society for Ukraine is to identify it organizationally with the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. The Ukrainian Academy of Sciences (UAN) was founded on November 1, 1918. The Commission was responsible for the rationale for the creation of the Academy to draft a bill on the founding of the Academy of Sciences in Kyiv. The Commission included representatives of the Ukrainian scientific elite of that time, led by V.I. Vernadsky. The main functions of the UAN were the organization and coordination of the scientific forces of the state. The history of the development of the UAN testifies to the civilization content of the strategy for the development of national science for the entire period of the twentieth century. The beginning of the XXI century declared a new system of relations in the world society. The meaningfulness of such relationships is marked by a new post-industrial society. For Ukraine, the reform of the institute of science after world shifts is becoming urgent. The modern scientific space of Ukraine can be characterized as functioning of the coordinate system "universityacademy". An appeal to the principles of scientific democracy should ensure a balance between the development of science in the university sector and academic institutions. The financial self-determination of universities has an opportunity to actualize scientific research. The University is able today to ensure the development of the humanitarian component of science, which reproduces the traditions of national culture. The academic structure needs to reload the strategy for reforming the material and technical support of research work for the branches of science, which have high ratings in the countries of the world.

The article analyzes one of the problems of personal relations belonging to the ethnic minority of the immigration community and the English- and French-speaking majority of the elite nation of the country of new immigrants, highlights the problem of preserving the national identity of Ukrainians in the Canadian diaspora through persistent, consistent and tolerant steps. Ukrainian linguist, folklorist, Slavist, librarian, organizer of science, teacher, public figure, Professor J. Rudnytsky in opposition to the linguistic assimilation of his own people; the principledness of the scientist in resolving the linguistic conflict, which gave a positive solution for both parties - Canada and the Ukrainian diaspora. The importance of the civic position and significant potential opportunities to influence the official circles of the country, government commissions, committees, international organizations and public opinion of authoritative intellectual work in society and academia, which, using historically sound evidence, proves the objectivity of his point of view. in this way he protects the national dignity of his people, their ancient and rich culture and defends his moral principles and beliefs. A bibliographic review of J. Rudnytsky's scientific work was carried out, where on the basis of historically balanced facts, historical-political, linguistic analysis he investigated the essence of language assimilation, which is equal to the destruction of national identity. It is shown that lexicographical works, conclusions from them gave the scientist a basis to win the struggle for the Constitutional recognition of the Ukrainian language in Canada, which supported the policy of official languages and multiculturalism in the country. It is emphasized that scientific conclusions gave the scientist the opportunity to summarize and summarize the research and became the basis for the introduction into public circulation of a capacious definition - linguocide (language murder), which is now widely used in scientific works.

Стаття присвячена дослідженню особливостей та правових засад сучасної державної політики у сфері національних меншин (спільнот) України, а також проблеми обмеження конституційних прав та свобод національних меншин (спільнот) у КНР та Болгарії.Авторський методологічний аналіз включав низку філософських, загальнонаукових та спеціально наукових методів. Зокрема метод порівняльного правознавства застосовувався для аналізу досвіду КНР та Болгарії щодо обмежень прав національних меншин (спільнот). Компаративний метод сприяв узагальненню знань у сфері державної політики у сфері національних меншин (спільнот).Репрезентовані позиції науковців та інституційних міжнародних органів щодо державної політики у сфері національних меншин (спільнот), мотивовано позицію казуальним виміром. Авторами розкрито ключові моменти державної політики у сфері національних меншин (спільнот), окрему увагу сконцентровано на проблемі позитивної дискримінації (особливому захисті) національних меншин. Вказано на труднощі реалізації державної політики у сфері національних меншин (спільнот) у КНР та Болгарії, а також піднято питання правового становища болгарської меншості (спільноти) України.У статті відображено основні напрямки державної політики у сфері національних меншин (спільнот) та основні завдання Державної служби України з етнополітики та свободи совісті. Приклади дискримінації македонської національної меншини в Болгарії, з одного боку, і вільного, рівноправного розвитку всіх націй і народів, що проживають на території України, – з іншого, ні недосконалість міжнародного законодавства, ні слабкість міжнародно-правових інститутів захисту прав людини не є головною перешкодою для вільного національного розвитку народів та окремих індивідів. Як найважливіша умова та об'єктивний чинник такого розвитку виступає державна національна політика, яка може або сприяти національному розвитку, або гальмувати його.Констатовано, що конституційні засади сучасної державної національної політики України утворюють положення Конституції України, що закріплюють найважливіші цінності конституційного ладу України. Звернено увагу, що національна політика України націлена насамперед на досягнення балансу, паритету інтересів кожної людини окремо та всіх народів (спільнот), що проживають на території України, у сфері національних відносин.У висновку зазначено, що національна політика України – це правова політика держави у галузі регламентації правового статусу національних меншин, формування нормативної бази, що забезпечує реалізацію національної політики на рівні органів державної влади та місцевого самоврядування в Україні.

Some issues of consolidation of the Ukrainian nation are considered. The peculiarity of postcolonial discourse is the study of new types of cultural and social identities, issues of self-conceptualization, and the legitimization of local narratives as national ones. It is known that the phenomenon of collective identity has attracted the attention of many researchers and is actively debated in various social and humanitarian discourses. Foreign science studies this phenomenon mainly according to sociocultural anthropology, sociology and psychology from various theoretical and methodological positions (Z. Freud, E. Erickson, K. Jung, B. Anderson, M. Barrett, S. Bauman, F. Bart, E. Gellner, R. Jenkins, H. Kon, B. Connor, B. Lukman, D. Matteson, A. Melutchchi, J. G. Mead, M. Mead, K. Moscovichi, E. Smith, G. Tejfel, J. Turner, J. Habermas, S. Huntington, etc.). In Russian and Ukrainian science, identity is studied within the framework of philosophy, political science, sociology, cultural studies, and psychology. The author extrapolated the Ericksonian term "identity" to the concept of "national identity". The components of this concept are analyzed, the interconnection of the components is searched and directions of consolidation of Ukrainians are offered.
The emphasis is made on the fact that the level of their morality, synthesized from the various feelings inherited from their predecessors during many centuries of existence of the Ukrainian people on the lands of modern Ukraine, should be considered a special feature of Ukrainian national identity. Historical facts of the formation of the modern Ukrainian people prove the immutability of his desire for freedom, justice, dedication to their ideals, on which the modern society is based and around which consolidation of the people of Ukraine is possible. It is noted that, speaking of the uniqueness of the Ukrainian nation, one should mention its ideological principles, which allowed Ukrainians to defend their interests and protect the values on which national identity is based. It is emphasized that understanding the essence and ways of any consolidation is based on the natural physical laws of the existence of matter, of the world - this should be taken into account in the process of achieving the goal.

Actualization of development problem of lobbying institution in legal, political and socio-cultural areas is caused not only by practical need in political development of Ukraine, but also by consequence of a general political science theoretical development. This article analyses the study of a powerful resource of political power - groups of pressure in the current political coordinates of Ukraine. Lobbyism is interpreted as a phenomenon conditioned by the peculiarities of American political process and American legislation, but it is emphasized that special mechanisms and methods of pressure on political government by non-governmental structures is inherent in any democratic system of government. It has been found that the system of pressure by "interested groups" is actively forming and operating in Ukraine, however, lobbyism in our country has not received proper coverage and legal regulation. The purpose of lobbying is to consolidate pressure groups' interests or third parties' interests in decisions management. It is noted that the methods of lobbyism that contain unlawful actions in spite of external decency (for example, corruption component) are used quite widely. The emphasis is made on the fact that most political decisions are not formed on the level of open official rule, but in the hidden process of rivalry, adaptation and regulation among numerous interested groups. Obviously, political leadership in Ukraine is largely controlled by large business structures.
Currently in Ukraine there is awareness about a need in institutionalization of lobbyism as part of political and democratic process, which, under conditions of legally regulated use, can contribute to the formation of a promising strategy for the development of Ukrainian state. It is concluded that dynamics of political space development in Ukraine depend on the constructive interaction between state institutions and pressure groups.

In the proposed article, on the example of the revolutionary events of 1917-1921 in Kharkiv Government, the interconnection between internal political stability and the solution of the land issue is shown. The object of the study is agrarian question as a conflict factor, which made the relations between the authorities and the population of the region more complicated. Having gained the control over the region the opposing governments had to solve not only military but also economic questions. The most difficult problem was to address the agrarian issue, as well as to determine the governments' share in the total volume of production grown by the peasantry. To solve these problems the political regimes combined repressive actions, methods of encouraging local people's collaboration, and information warfare. Despite the lack of the Ukrainian national political regimes' support the agrarian population of Kharkiv Government resisted the «White» and «Red» terror and policy of War Communism. The most common forms of resistance of the peasantry in Kharkiv region were: illegal active struggle (armed uprisings, creation of rebel forces, terrorist acts), illegal passive struggle (desertion, concealment of food, sabotage of duties), legal active struggle (village meetings, peasant conferences) and legal passive struggle (refusal to work in local authorities, unwillingness to join the political party). In summing up authors pointed out that the conflict factors in the region included: the frequent change of the military-political situation, lack of reliable information in the countryside, popularity of Utopian ideas among the masses, food confiscations, terror of the repressive bodies, and spontaneity of the peasant rebellion movement.

The article, based on a study of the formation and development of Ukrainian studies in the crisis of classical science, analyzes the transformation of modern European science from Descartes to the present, the contradictions of high ideals of the Enlightenment about man, people, and human-based foundations of postclassical Ukrainian studies. The study describes Ukrainian studies in the context of fundamental changes in modern European science and the separation of the humanities from the natural science discussions of unity - the separation and search for the unity of the humanities and natural sciences. The role of Ukrainian studies in the formation of the Ukrainian literary language, spelling, literature, the establishment of scientific research in the processes of cultural and historical revival, social, national-revolutionary movements are revealed. The general theoretical scientific basis of Ukrainian studies is analyzed, noting specific features in classical and non-classical science. In the context of the research, the peculiarity of Ukrainian studies as a holistic, multiple, human-dimensional science is revealed, in the structure of which parts express the nature of the whole and give it specific properties. Apart from the integral structure, the parts acquire other object features. The article emphasizes that rethinking the role of Ukrainian studies in science, education, in all spheres of life is a powerful basis for the consolidation of the Ukrainian nation. There are well-founded arguments that the renewed Ukrainian studies, having passed a difficult path of formation, rise and prohibitions, oblivion, revival becomes the foundation for new post-classical science.

Since the great historical event - the proclamation of the Act of Independence of Ukraine, the country has been expanding international cooperation in librarianship. The main areas of international cooperation, which is a priority in research institutions in the library business, are: conducting joint research; organization of international conferences, symposia, congresses and other events. Scientific conferences are one of the forms of dissemination of new information. In the modern information space, scientific institutions play an essential role in developing science, education and culture. Therefore, when evaluating a scientific institution, the number of international scientific and practical seminars, conferences, other events organized by the scientific institution, and materials (including collections of abstracts) of conferences are considered.Among the research institutions of Ukraine, which study the problems of library science, bibliography, bibliology, source studies, document science, archival science, biography, codicology and discography, history of book culture, computer science, social communications, the leading position is held by the most extensive library of Ukraine - the National Library of Ukraine, named after V. I. Vernadsky. Furthermore, the article analyzes the specifics of the organization of scientific conferences in a scientific institution, studies the directions and thematic content of such events, forms of conduct, their frequency during 1991-2021.

The article provides a comparative review of the history, current status and areas of scientific activity of the Sociological Association of Ukraine (SAU), its creative ties with the European and world sociological community, in particular, joint research with Polish scientists. It emphasizes that most of the Ukrainian sociologists SAU members work in universities, the Institute of Sociology of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, and public opinion research centers. Numerous sociological (theoretical and empirical) studies on various issues of vital activity of modern Ukrainian society are carried out by their efforts. It is noted that in addition to studying the issues of social transformation in its political, economic, legal, social and cultural aspects, that have become traditional for Ukrainian sociology, in recent years Ukrainian sociologists have turned to the analysis of such problems as external and internal migration (the problem of internally displaced persons); military conflict in the east of Ukraine and the volunteer movement; social inequality, including in its new manifestations, including those caused by the digitalization of public life. It is emphasized that today the most pressing issue of sociological reflection is the changes that occur in Ukraine after the last presidential election. Attention is focused on the fact that the victory of the political rookie in these elections was due to the huge social disappointments of the Ukrainians, since their expectations provoked by the Revolution of Dignity were not fulfilled. The first and most important disappointment, according to sociological studies, is the fact that peace has not reigned in the country. Second, the living standards of Ukrainian citizens have not improved. Third, the fight against corruption did not bring significant results. Fourth, social inequality deepened: the rich became richer, and the poor became poorer. The fifth disappointment is the inefficiency of the declared reforms: judicial, medical, educational, customs, electoral, etc. It is emphasized that the effectiveness of the new government depends, among other things, on its consideration of such features of the mass consciousness of the Ukrainian population as a critical level of distrust of all institutions of power; value and ideological ambivalence and uncertainty. The conclusions are formulated about the unlikeliness of return of Ukraine to the orbit of Russian political and economic influence, as well as the victory of radical nationalist ideology in our country.

The transformation of the economy of Ukraine predetermines the need for comprehensive analysis of its impact on the areas of economic activity because the depth of transformation processes has significant differences. In this regard especially important is innovation environment, on the development of which the competitiveness of the national economy largely depends, as well as the pace and quality of economic development. The analysis of the features of the transformational changes in the environment, especially in the innovation sector, is particularly relevant under conditions of global competition. The aim of the article is to study the development of global innovation environment, development and scientific substantiation of directions ensuring national innovation competitive advantages, to identify opportunities to use integration processes to enhance international innovation investment cooperation. To achieve this aim we applied the following methods: abstract–logical, structurally–logical, comparative and statistical. Peculiarities of innovation development in Ukraine under conditions of growing global competition were examined. We studied transformational changes in the development of investment and innovation environment in Ukraine, which made it possible to determine the real state of its innovation appeal. The innovative development was considered as self–reproductive basis for the formation of new patterns of economic dynamics, modernization of the national economy, technological convergence of Ukraine into global economic space, maintaining intellectual potential. The study of the transformation of innovative development and market transformation efficiency of social production showed that the innovation attractiveness of Ukraine is significantly affected not only by the general state of the national economy but by the conditions of business activities. The practical value of the research is in the fact that the implementation of the formulated strategic objectives in the innovation field will allow the national economy to solve the problem of substantial growth of the gross domestic product, to improve investment attractiveness, to create conditions for the development of existing and for attracting new companies, to create new sectors of the economy in the field of small and medium sized innovative businesses, to form the clusters of innovative enterprises, to ensure integration of science, government and business. The issues of the transformation of innovative development will require further detailed study in the context of overcoming the crisis of competitiveness of the national economy, market transformations for the efficiency of social production.
