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.

Тихомирова Євгенія Борисівна - доктор політичних наук, професор, завідувач кафедри міжнародної інформації Волинського національного університету імені Лесі Українки ; У статті розглядається політологічний дискурс української американістики. Автор здійснює аналіз наукових визначень американістики, аналізує еволюцію української американістики, виявляє основні напрямки політологічних досліджень українських американістів та робить висновок, що входження України в глобалізаційний простір потребує не лише теоретичної рефлексії, але й підвищення впливу політологічного дискурсу на когнітивну сферу громадськості та його входження в свідомість української громадськості. The article considers the discourse of political science Ukrainian American Studies. The author analyzes the definitions of American Studies, analyzes the evolution of Ukrainian American studies, identifies the main directions of Ukrainian Political Studies, American Studies, and concludes that Ukraine's entry into the space of globalization requires not only theoretical reflection, but also increase the influence of political science discourse on cognition and his public entry into the consciousness of Ukrainian public

The article deals with aspects of the interconnection of the phenomena of social trauma and social conflict, especially in the context of modern Ukrainian society, as well as in the context of the problems of Ukrainian studies discourse. The authors note the extreme importance of the phenomenon of social trauma in the state of health, in the vital program of the individual, in the collective self-identification of social groups, in particular of nations, and the problems and specifics of the manifestation of social trauma in philosophical and sociological sciences. Social trauma is capable to influence the personality's understanding of the meaning of its existence, the interpretation of the direction of development of social processes, the content of interpersonal and intergroup relations in the society. As a result of the defeat of one of the parties of a social conflict, the trauma itself can turn into a conflict factor in the social organism. The authors emphasize the diverse impact of social trauma on the emergence and course of social conflicts in interpersonal and intergroup spheres in the history and contemporary realities of Ukrainian society. It is emphasized that social trauma can be caused not only by real but also by fictional events, which can also cause social conflicts. The article emphasizes the extremely important role of the value positions of the subjects of social conflict in the ranking of traumatic events in the Convention of Ukrainian Studies, shows the influence of these positions on the interethnic and interclass relations in Ukraine. The peculiarities of the connection of social trauma with social conflicts in the life of the modern Ukrainian society in the post-truth situation are also analyzed. The authors emphasize that provoking social conflict by means of creating a post-truth situation if post-truth speculates on real or imagined social trauma is especially dangerous for the society. An ongoing social conflict will be deep and lasting. The manipulation of historical facts by placing them in a post-truth situation is illustrated in the article by facts from the sphere of hybrid warfare conducted by the Russian Federation in the eastern territories of Ukraine. The article explores several aspects of the impact of social trauma on social conflicts in the context of anomie in the spiritual life of the Ukrainian society.

The article deals with current historiography of the research program of modernization in Western – mostly US – academic literature. The article stresses the importance of the theory's reputation for its success or failure. The paper traces the origins of the critique of the discourse of modernization. The interrelation between academic scholarship and ideological partisanship is being examined. It is argued that ideology is an integral part of academic discourse, so the task of academics is not to get rid of ideology but to control it and keep within reasonable boundaries. The topicality of the issue raised in the article is determined by the hegemony of neo-liberal thinking which is a descendant of modernization theory with its belief in the exemplar nature of the Western experience. The article juxtaposes two mutually exclusive approaches to modernization theory, that of E.Tiryakian and I. Wallerstein. While the former is advocating the worthiness of modernization theory on grounds of its intellectual prowess, the latter is claiming that the idea of modernization was ideology, not a theory and as such was stillborn. Thus, they arrive at mutually opposite conclusions – the revival of modernization theory versus its burial. The article examines the vast literature on the origins, developmental history and political connections of modernization theory. The involvement of the founders of the modernization theory into the policy making towards the Third World is discussed. The role of modernization theory in buttressing the US policy during Vietnam War is revealed.It is argued that reputation of the scientific theory is critical to its reception and survival. The modernization theory today in Western nations is faced with radical left rejection, liberal critique and uncritical apology. At the same time there is a dangerous trend in Ukraine when the modernization theory is being perceived and (ab)used in a ritualistic manner. This is posture towards modernization research program should be combated by means of restoring value of rational discourse and selective appropriation of the legacy of the idea of modernization. ; Стаття розглядає сучасну історіографію дослідницької програми модернізації у закордонній - переважно американській – суспільствознавчій літературі. Стаття простежує походження критики дискурсу модернізації, визначає взаємовідношення між науковою теорією і партійною ідеологією в рамках дослідницької програми модернізації. Стаття вибудовує типологію підходів до теорії модернізації: ліворадикальний заперечення, ліберальну критику і некритичну апологію, а також пропонує визначити впливову тенденцію сприйняття теорії модернізації в Україну як рітуалізований культ.

In this article, the author critically analyzes the "Proceedings of the Institute of Slavonic Studies of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR" of 1932 edited by Academician N. Derzhavin. The author notes that the analyzed collection contains good scientific articles, as well as propaganda articles, which are unacceptable for a purely scientific publication. In particular, the author notes the thesis of the Russian scholar N. Derzhavin on the political nature of science, on the need to consider the past through the prism of class struggle. S. Narizhny pays special attention to the analysis of the works of Ukrainian researchers, first of all V. Peretz and M. Hrushevsky, and also singles out the articles published in Ukrainian in the Russian journal. At the same time, the analysis of Hrushevsky's article on the chronicle of Samovydets is the most thorough in the article. Thus, this article is of interest for the history of Ukrainian Slavic studies and the intellectual history of Ukrainian emigration in interwar Europe.

During the last twenty years the concept of «social capital», which is built on the intuition that social ties and relations can serve as a useful resource for individuals and society, actively takes positions in the social sciences. The research program of social capital synthesizes various theoretical paradigms, going beyond those academic and ideological frameworks in which it arises. From the areas of theoretical sociology, and economic theory, where the concept of social capital is constructed, the theory goes into the policymaking, combines the perspectives of economic, sociological and political science.The limits of application of concepts of social capital in research practice through the reference to the history of concepts and theories were comprehended. Determined, that the critical importance of social capital for social theory is the result of claims for an interdisciplinary significance. Critical view of such interdisciplinary perspectives points to the ideological and methodological limitations of the use of some concepts of social capital. However, the undisputed fact of this research program, based on the integrative tendencies of a unified science of society. Consequences deriving from the social capital are identified in the margins of various disciplines. In the political sphere – is civil engagement and institutional effectiveness, in economics – the reduction of transaction costs, in social sphere – cohesion and solidarity, or even life satisfaction and well-being. The broad range of the research program of social capital at different levels of social phenomena stretches from the perspectives of historical macrosociology to micro-perspectives of network analysis. Within the framework of the research program is no consensus on how to operationalize and measure social capital, which significantly reduces the prospects of its indicators use in the determination the steps of policies. ; Осмыслено границы применения концепций социального капитала в исследовательской практике через обращение к истории понятия и теории. Определено, что исключительная важность понятия социального капитала для социальной теории является следствием существующих претензий на междисциплинарную значимость. Критический взгляд на такие междисциплинарные перспективы оказывает на идеологическую и методологическую ограниченность потребления отдельных концепций социального капитала наряду с неоспоримым фактом нахождения этой исследовательской программы в основе интегративных тенденций единой науки об обществе. ; Осмислено межі застосування концепцій соціального капіталу в дослідницькій практиці через звернення до історії поняття та теорії. Визначено, що виняткова важливість поняття соціального капіталу для соціальної теорії є наслідком існуючих претензій на міждисциплінарну значущість.Критичний погляд на такі міждисциплінарні перспективи вказує на ідеологічну й методологічну обмеженість вжитку окремих концепцій соціального капіталу поряд з беззаперечним фактом знаходження цієї дослідницької програми в осерді інтегративних тенденцій єдиної науки про суспільство.

This article examines complexity theories and their applicability for social studies. Once these theories revealed complex system of autopoietic self-organization, nonlinearity and far from equilibrium social theoretics were encouraged to apply complexity methodology to investigate social complexity in a frame of political studies, sociology, international relations and other social disciplines.As a particular case, the article studies John Urry's profound contributions to complexity theoretical shifts in social science. He was not only one of the most important British sociologists, but also a scholar network builder and public intellectual who changed the face of British, and indeed global, social theory. Known as a creator of the new mobility paradigm associated with a 'Lancaster School', he stands in contrast to the empiricist traditions inAmerican and British social sciences, while struggling for post-disciplinary approach against the hierarchies of academic departments, and their disciplinary closure. This also explains his critique of conventional sociology and its division from the natural sciences.J. Urry was primarily a macro-level thinker concerned with systems and global processes. Therefore, his project starts with complexity theory and its implications in terms of global complexity, complexity of social sciences in opposition to its previous linearity and structure/agent duality. J. Urry argues for breaking down the division between 'natural' and 'social' sciences, since both are characterized by complexity This complexity turn led Urry directly into his conceptualization of mobilities as a second theoretical turn, which deals with dynamic urban forms and automobility. Finally, a third theoretical turn in his thinking is geo-ecological. Here J. Urry is acting as a micro-level theorist of the body, leisure, consuming, tourism and nature. Tracing this trajectory of his theoretical evolution is more informative for it moves us from his early recognition of large-scaled complexity into reconsidered human-scaled problems of how we ought to live in the world.Key words: social and natural sciences, theory of complex systems, chaos theory, mobility, John Urry. ; У статті аналізуються теорії складності (complexity theories) з точки зору доцільності їх використання в дослідженнях соціальних теоретиків. Відкриття можливості вивчення складних систем, яким притаманні властивості самоорганізації як аутопойезису, нелійності та стану нерівноваги, спонукало соціальних теоретиків до використання інструментарію науки про складність у дослідженнях соціальної складності в межах політології, соціології, міжнародних відносинах та інших дисциплінах про суспільство та людину.В якості конкретного прикладу розглядається відповідний внесок у соціальну теорію соціолога Джона Уррі. Всупереч емпіричній та позитивістській традиції він запропонував пост-дисциплінарний підхід на підставі того, що як соціальні, так і природничі науки характеризуються належністю до складних систем. Наш аналіз еволюції його поглядів фіксує в якості її початкового і фундаментального етапу саме теорію складності. Її можна назвати головним поворотом, який Дж. Уррі здійснив у соціальній теорії. Всі інші його інновації, зокрема теорія соціальної мобільності та геоекологічний підхід у питаннях природи, планетарного споживання і людського тіла, стали закономірним наслідком цього фокусу на теорії складності.Ключові слова: соціальні та природничі науки, теорії складності, теорії хаосу, мобільність. Джон Уррі. В статье анализируются теории сложности (complexity theories) с точки зрения обоснованности их использования в исследованиях социальных теоретиков. Открытие возможности изучения сложных систем, которые обладают свойствами самоорганизации как аутопоэзиса, нелинейности и неравновесности подтолкнуло социальных теоретиков к использованию этого инструментария в изучении социальных сложных систем в рамках политологии, социологии, международных отношений и других дисциплин об обществе и человеке.В качестве конкретного примера рассматривается соответствующий вклад в социальную теорию социолога Дж. Урри. В противовес эмпирической и позитивистской традиции он отстаивает пост-дисциплинарный подход, исходя из того, что и социальные, и естественные науки характеризуются принадлежностью к сложным системам. Наш анализ эволюции его взглядов фиксирует в качестве ее стартового и фундаментального этапа именно теорию сложностей. Ее можно назвать главным поворотом, который Дж. Урри совершил в социальной теории. Все другие его инновации, в частности теория социальной мобильности и гео-экологический подход подход в вопросах природы, планетарного потребления и человеческого тела, стали лишь закономерным следствием этой сфокусированности на теории сложных системКлючевые слова: социальные и естественные науки, теория сложных систем, теория хаоса, мобильность, Джон Урри.

Introduction. The article deals with the theoretical analysis of the problem of women's leadership as a social and psychological phenomenon in modern Ukraine. The topicality of the work is conditioned by lack of the relevant problem development, European integration processes, the tasks of the state gender policy to ensure real access of women to different levels of government. Purpose. The purpose of the article is to theoretically substantiate the phenomenon of women's leadership in the political and economic system of Ukraine and empirically investigate its features in modern realities. Methods: 1) theoretical - analysis and synthesis, generalization and systematization of theoretical principles; 2) empirical - questionnaires and interviews; oral and written survey, collection of quantitative data on web portals; 3) mathematical and statistical - culculation of arithmetic mean and percentages. Originality. The psychohistorical features of the formation of women's leadership in the development of Ukrainian statehood are characterized. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the theoretical analysis of the concepts of "leadership", "political leadership", "women's leadership". Within the framework of gender psychology of leadership as one of the modern interdisciplinary directions of research the basic scientific approaches in foreign and domestic science are analyzed. The practical results significance of the empirical study is to identify social perceptions of the population about the "ideal" social and demographic indicators of applicants for real participation in the political governance of the country. The paper ascertains that according to typical external characteristics, respondents are approximately equally ready to perceive and evaluate both a male and a female politician. It is found out that 75% of respondents believe that high education is the prerogative of the leadership of a male politician, while for women, according to 60.2% of respondents, the key qualities are erudition and the ability to generate new ideas. About 90% of respondents consider nationality - Ukrainian identity - a significant feature for politicians of both sexes in Ukraine. Conclusion. It is possible to note the fact of social acceptance of gender equality in the social sphere of governance, as in general the respondents do not give men the expected advantage in potential management positions. The relatively low representation of women in the Ukrainian authorities is not a matter of the electorate's unwillingness to elect women. The reasons for this should be sought primarily in social technologies and in the self-reproduction-oriented Ukrainian administration, which is still predominantly male. Prospects for further research are outlined by the dynamics of social and political and economic processes in Ukraine. In particular, it is planned to explore in more depth the various social and demographic and psychological predictors of women's leadership compared to male leaders. ; В статье представлен теоретический анализ проблемы женского лидерства как социально-психологического феномена в современной Украине.
