Abstract
Forced migration during the war led to significant changes in academic mobility in Ukraine. This challenge received a worthy response thanks to the support of Ukraine from the European Union, the USA and other countries of Western democracy: many Ukrainian students and professors received greater opportunities to study and work in European and Western universities in general. This article aims to identify the main threats to inclusivity and new opportunities to provide additional resources and educational space for the development of inclusivity, which is directly related to forced migration as one of the challenges to higher education in Ukraine during this war. The methodology of this article is a philosophical approach based on the use of interrelated concepts of challenge and response. The case study of challenges for academic mobility in Ukraine is used as well. Obstacles and limitations of academic mobility during the war appear to be partially overcome, thanks to distance education. The new opportunities that have opened up for the Ukrainian higher education system provide broad and strategic prospects for the deep integration of the Ukrainian higher education system into the European and world educational space.

The multifaceted nature of the boundary phenomenon causes difficulties in its application. Therefore, in order to study the phenomenon of the borderland, in the context of the ethno- geographical space, it is necessary to imagine the studied area as a borderland of cultures, ethnic groups, states, communities, traditions, norms and values or as a terrain in which social structures (spaces, dimensions) are superimposed on the geographical space of society, what is a goal of the article. The phenomenon of the border is that in its space of interaction new forms of solidarity of social communities arise, cross-border social networks are formed. The novelty of the study is formed in the processes of mutual attraction and mutual repulsion of cultural traditions and symbolic systems in the border zones became the arguments in favor of the study of borders as special socio-cultural phenomena with their own regional identity. As it turned out, these zones are characterized by a special system of interaction between "own" and "other". Conclusions. The matrix of this interaction does not always coincide with territorial borders or demarcation lines. In the most general way the interpretation of the borderland as a category implies a constant stay on the border - between states, eras, cultures. One of its options is the territory of Halychyna, Bukovyna, Transcarpathia. When Ukrainians in difficult, dramatic conditions had to fight for their national self-identification through the development of Ukrainian education and culture in confrontation with foreign ruling state systems.

The article is devoted to Cossacks as an extraordinary phenomenon in European history. Its peculiarity is that it became a separate social class with certain rights and had its own territory, independent of the state administration. The relevance of this new social force was caused primarily by the strengthening of social, economic and religious coercion of broad sections of the population. The question of archification, barbarism and civilization is raised as a social and cultural process through which it passed establishment of Cossack identity realizes the novelty of the study. The article uses the descriptive and comparative methods. Conclusions. It is emphasized that the issue of national self-assertion in the 17th century passed into the hands of the Cossacks. It was the Cossacks who had to take over the baton of the former Ukrainian "classocracy", which for a long period was in a state of decay and destruction. The Cossacks turned out to be capable of directing the manifestations of the protest movement of different classes in the direction of the long national liberation war against Polish rule, which led to the formation of an independent Ukrainian state – Hetmanship.

The main aim of the article is to analyze the identity transformations of Ukrainian citizens triggered by the large-scale Russian invasion in 2022. Russian military aggression significantly affected the daily life of every citizen of Ukraine, including her or his personal and collective identity. An analysis of sociological surveys shows that, along with the deterioration of such indicators of the social well-being index as professional self-realization, nutrition, leisure time, adaptation to the new reality, etc., the feeling of solidarity more than doubled in March 2022 compared to March 2021. The war also led to a significant rethinking of the values ​​of Ukrainians and encouraged them to value more what they have, as well as reduced the level of expectations and claims regarding the satisfaction of their needs.
The full-scale Russian-Ukrainian war sharpened the national self-awareness of Ukrainians and increased their negative attitude toward the "brotherly nations" of Russians and Belarusians as well as toward possible concessions to the Russians in exchange for the cessation of aggression. In time of war, the political views of Ukrainians underwent a significant transformation. They are ready to limit their democratic rights and freedoms for the sake of victory.
The article considers Ukrainian resistance to Russian aggression as a continuation of Ukraine's struggle for its freedom and independence.

The article deals with the problem of relations and social interaction of Ukrainian communities (primarily burghers and peasants) with the Jewish population of the Volyn Voivodeship in the 1st half of the 17th cent. The author pays attention to the relevance of an objective analysis of this problem in view of false stereotypes about the deep traditions of Ukrainian anti-Semitism and insufficient attention of domestic scientists to the study of the experience of social interaction of Jews and Christians in Volyn during the Lithuanian-Polish era. The most important studies and publications, in which the solution of the problem was initiated, were analysed, the priority directions of further studies related to this topic were emphasized.
The article raises the issue of the specifics of conflicts between Christians and Jews in Volyn. At the same time, it was emphasized that relatively few conflict situations related to national-religious misunderstandings were found. At the same time, in a number of cases, their analysis makes it possible to obtain (as background information) information about the cooperation of representatives of the Christian and Jewish communities.
When presenting the main material, four episodes from the history of Ukrainian-Jewish relations were analysed, which testified to the cooperation of representatives of these communities in the realities of everyday life in Volyn in the 1st half of the 17th cent. In particular, the practice of inviting Ukrainian burghers and peasant women to Jewish families as babysitters was noted; at the same time, it was emphasized that the mentioned cooperation had a long history and was practiced in Volyn despite an explicit prohibition in the II Lithuanian Statute. Cases of reactions of Ukrainian peasants and townspeople in crisis situations were also analysed, when Jews were saved from robbers and a mob that intended to commit lynching by their efforts.
As a result it is possible to confirm the fact that the national-religious boundaries between Jews and Ukrainians were blurred in the everyday conditions of the first half of the 17th cent., already stated in the works of domestic researchers. This was confirmed not only by the example of the communication of Jews with the nobility, but also at the level of other classes, namely burghers and peasants. It was emphasized that the myth of the systemic anti-Semitism of Ukrainians is not confirmed in the sources, so the study of real conflicts between Ukrainians and Jews requires new approaches.

The article deals with the problems of everyday life of the parish clergy of Volyn during the Lithuanian-Polish era. It is noted that such a topic is important in the context of the study of the cultural and national movement on the Ukrainian lands at the border of the 16th and 17th centuries. The importance of criminal cases of district courts of the Volyn Voivodeship for the study of everyday problems of all strata of the Ukrainian population of this era, in particular the parish clergy, is emphasized. The author expressed the opinion that criminal cases reflected evidence about everyday life that could not be recorded in other sources available to modern scientists.The purpose of the article is to reveal a number of aspects of the daily life of the Volyn parish clergy using the example of the protest of a priest from the village of Biskupychi, Fr. Hryhoriy Zhukovych, as well as the testimony of the ministerial in this case. The analysis of Kostyantyn Gulevich's crime – beating the victim, as well as rape and robbery of his wife (in the victim's interpretation) made it possible to draw the following conclusions: first, the crime had not only a sexual motive and the desire to rob. The criminal also sought to humiliate the social dignity of the victim. This was manifested in her dressing in peasant clothes and a violent peasant-style haircut. Secondly, based on the protest and the ministerial's testimony, it was possible to discover additional information about the history of Ukrainian clothing. According to the list of selected items, it was concluded that the bishop's wife had quite expensive clothes and could afford to wear silver and gold jewellery. The forced dressing of the victim in peasant clothes gave additional insights into what the peasants wore at that time. Thirdly, the text of the protest made it possible to reveal the figure of the vernacular using the example of both individual words and idioms. In addition, an archaic term related to the metrology of those times and dating back to the princely era was discovered. Finally, a conclusion was made about the perspective of further research of the materials of criminal cases for the study of a wide range of problems related to Ukrainian everyday life during the Lithuanian-Polish era.

The purpose of the work is to identify the specifics of the communicative semantics in the Lviv pop-jazz continuum on the example of the vocal octets «Picardian Third» and «Orpheus». The research methodology is based on the use of cultural and analytical methods, on the basis of the theoretical understanding of the communicative semantics concept and the extrapolation of the specified phenomenon to understanding the analysis of the specified creative collectives' activities. The scientific novelty of the research: the article proposes a definition of the communicative semantics concept, which is interpreted as a set of meanings produced by one or another artistic centre in its multiple creative acts; the essence of the indicated semantics in the Lviv pop-jazz continuum is determined using the example of the octets «Picardian third» and «Orpheus». Conclusions. The specificity of the communicative semantics of creative collectives, whose activities are analysed in the article, demonstrates stylistic multiculturalism, while its nature is different in the two indicated octets. The semantics of the vocal formation «Picardian Third» from the point of view of pop-jazz communication is defined as a syncretism of national (folk, spiritual, and pop) and international jazz messages, when the essentially national repertoire is presented in jazz design. Instead, in the work of the «Orpheus» octet, we observe greater differentiation of the indicated messages; the communicative semantics of the collective is created in the process of simultaneous combination of various styles and approaches. At the same time, we can state that the activities of both octets harmoniously combine the tendencies of acculturation and inculturation, and this is a guarantee of the further harmonious development of multiple cultural processes associated with the specified collectives in the Lviv continuum and the European space, and also determines the prospects of future research into Lviv pop and jazz sphere.
Key words: communicative semantics, acculturation, inculturation, Lviv pop-jazz continuum, «Picardian third», «Orpheus».

The article examines a qualitatively new phenomenon of modern political life in Russia ‑ ruscism. Its proximity to fascism and Nazism is shown, and the variety of approaches to understanding the main ideas of fascism is considered. We offer our own interpretation of this phenomenon. The author interprets ruscism as the ideology of Russian fascism, based on anti-liberalism, expansionism, revanchism, necrophilia, genocide, terrorism, statism, xenophobia, Eurasianism, leadership, God's chosen people, mobilization of the nation and the state against enemies. The most important features of the ideology of ruscism are considered. It is proven that ruscism is anti-human by its very nature, that violates all principles of international law, destroys the world security system, and thanks to disinformation and manipulation of consciousness, creates a distorted image of the world, where the truth is a lie, and white is black.
