The paper is the study of the modern conservative ideology axiological side. The views of American and German neo-conservatives, French «new right» thinkers, as well as communitarians close to conservatism in some aspects are analyzed. It is asserted that modern conservatism like all political ideologies is based on definite values. The inference is made about specific character of these values which are intentionally concrete and appear to be the models for acting in accordance with them. The paper shows conservatives overcoming the axiological contradictions between individual and social, objective and subjective features of values. Conservative thinkers find the foundation of values in the sphere out of history as well as the historical factors. Modern conservatism is in search of the basis uniting the values of community and the values of individuals. The problem of values formation is viewed by conservatism in most cases as the problem of their implementation in the result of different social institutes activities. The educational role of the state as well as non-state institutes – family, church, national culture – is appreciated. Conservatism is devoid of illusions as for the possibility to end the conflicts of values in society. It leads to rather pessimistic vision of nowadays events and our nearby future.

This article describes the main correlations that were obtained between music preferences and personal values. It has been discovered that personal values play a significant role in people's music preferences and they are at the forefront in proposing a map that links personal values to music preferences. According to the results, music preferences can be defined by personal values since people tend to listen to a specific type of music if corresponding values are projected such as conservatism and openness. In this case, music is broken into four preference dimensions which include reflective and complex for folk, jazz, and classical, rebellious and intense comprising of punk, rock, and alternate, conventional and upbeat comprising of pop, country, and soundtracks, and lastly rhythmic and energetic including funk, electronica, hip-hop, and soul. Besides, preferences may be defined by socio-demographic characteristics such as age and gender such that the young people tend to prefer music because of what the other peers listen to and enjoy music in social places such as bars, restaurants, and music festivals, middle-aged people listen to the music of their preferences and at the time of their choosing at homes or while carrying out activities, the aged tend to have less music preference but some cannot do anything without listening to music and therefore have to keep their preference music always. Males tend to focus on certain genres of music such as heavy metal and rock which are associated with cognitive listening and demonstrates a negatively conservative nature of music while females prefer listening to pop music more than males. This article discloses the main results that were obtained in the empirical study of different articles concerning the topic of the relationship between personal values and music preferences. No such research was conducted on Ukrainian-speaking samples before.

In the current difficult socio-political situation of challenges, threats and at the same time great prospects for development, cardinal changes in politics, economy, social sphere, priority tasks of social progress, along with ensuring their sovereignty and territorial integrity, search for ways to integrate into the European and Euro-Atlantic communities that there is need to define a new education strategy as a multi-component and multi-vector system, which to a large extent shapes the future development of the Ukrainian state. Today, among the educational directions, spiritual and moral education is one of the most relevant, as a pivotal and fundamental, which meets both modern requirements and challenges, and lays the ground for the formation of the consciousness of the present and future generations. The article focuses on the value orientations necessary for the successful professional activities of a teacher in the field of preschool education. The fundamental, in the author's opinion, is the spiritual and moral component of the value potential of the teacher, the foundation of which is the Christian virtues. An analysis of the latest research in this area is presented

The general articulation of the issue and its connection with the important research and practice tasks. Negative phenomena in the field of public service and ways to resolve value conflicts for the sake of positive, progressive social development of the state and its economic, cultural, political, and social growth necessitate the study of the measurement of values in public administration. The analysis of the recent publications regarding the issues this article deals with; identification of parts of the general problem that have not been previously addressed. In the social sciences, more and more attempts are being made to measure values, as evidenced by the work of scientists from different countries. Certain attempts in the direction under study have been made by Ukrainian scientists. In particular, they use methods of sociological research. At the same time, there is a lack of development of comprehensive coverage of the measurement of values in public administration in the world and provisions on the importance of such research.

The research paper describes the implementation in the theory of public administration of intelligence on the measurement of values in the Netherlands (using surveys based on Q-methodology and technical support PQMethod), China (based on factor analysis and qualitative interviews), France (in-depth interviews). The main provisions of the intercultural study of the attitude of Dutch and Chinese civil servants to several values are highlighted. The article describes relevant research carried out in Ukraine. Conclusions and the prospects of the further research. It is concluded that the value aspects of public service and training of public servants are inseparable from the management model inherent in a state; the need and demand for ethics in the public service have a universal dimension; changes in society, global trends in human development lead to changes in models of public administration, with changes in values that can lead to a kind of conflict. It is determined that in the implementation of research on the measurement of values based on the results of relevant world experience there is great theoretical and practical potential for public administration in Ukraine. Emphasis is placed on the importance of developing tools for measuring values in public administration. It is noted that the study of values in different contexts will contribute to a common discourse in the field of public administration.

Main objective of the study is the analysis of the environmental governance in the Eastern Partnership countries. Methodology of the study includes an analysis of the European Union and the countries of the Eastern Partnership documents devoted to the implementation of the environmental governance principles. The study clarifies the concepts of "governance", "environmental governance", "European environmental governance". The main principles and values of the European environmental governance are determined. The environmental vector of the Eastern Partnership and measures that promote the implementation of environmental governance, in particular the Flagship initiative of the Eastern Partnership on Effective Environmental Governance (2009) and the Ministerial Declaration on Environmental Cooperation and Climate Change (2016) have been analyzed. The results of the study show the role of the European Union in improving governance and conducting effective reforms in the Eastern Partnership countries, including the implementation in the environmental policy such European values as democracy, rule of law, engagement, transparency, impact assessment. It has concluded that during 2009–2017, there was a certain progress in the implementation of environmental governance in Ukraine, Moldova, Belarus, Azerbaijan, Armenia and Georgia, but still there are many problems on this way. Ukraine, the first one among the Eastern Partnership countries, has developed a "soft" instrument for implementing the principles of good environmental governance, which has been put in the "Roadmap for the implementation of the provisions of the Luxembourg Declaration" (2017). This document is currently under development. The significance of the study is in the determining the key role of the European values in the implementation of environmental governance and proposal for their wider inclusion not only in this document, but in practices in Ukraine.

The article investigates the system of values in the American linguoculture through the VALUES concept. We divide the key values into the following main groups: vital, social, political, moral, religious and ideological, artistic and aesthetic, family and labor values. The nominative field of the VALUES concept is created on the basis of linguistic means that reveal it. The structure of the nominative field of the concept is represented by the nuclear and its periphery, which include the meaning of a certain lexeme, introduced by a hyperseme / hypersemes. This higher order semantic component organizes the development of the semantic field around itself. To establish the nuclear of the VALUES concept nominative field in the American media discourse, the definitions of a key lexeme, as well as related lexemes were traced in dictionaries and thesauruses. The analysis of lexicographic sources represented a synonymic expansion of the key lexeme and related units. The following socio-cultural values of the American society were singled out: personal control over the environment; change; time and its control; equality / egalitarianism, individualism; privacy; individual achievement (status, success); self-reliance / independence; competition; future orientation; action / work orientation; informality; directness / openness / honesty; patriotism, etc. The frequency usage analysis of the key lexemes and their synonymic extension is carried out. It is established that the nuclear of the VALUES concept includes Action / Work orientation component. The perinuclear area consists of the following notions: Equality / Egalitarianism, Time and its control, Change, Individual achievement (status, success), Materialism / Acquisitiveness (possess(iveness), consume(rs), customer (s), goods, services), Privacy, Value (s), etc. The peripheral area of the VALUES concept is the following: Practicality, Individualism, Competition, Personal control over the environment, Future orientation, Directness / openness / honesty (sincerity, sobriety, straightforward, frankness, earnest, etc.), American liberalism and capitalism, Informality, etc. ; У статті досліджено американську лінгвокультурну систему цінностей через концепт ЦІННОСТІ / VALUES. Ключові цінності поділяємо на такі основні групи: вітальні цінності, соціальні, політичні, моральні, релігійні й ідеологічні, художньо-естетичні, родинні, трудові. Створено номінативне поле концепту VALUES на основі мовних засобів, які його репрезентують. Структура номінативного поля концепту представлена у вигляді ядра та периферії, до яких входить значення певної лексеми, представлене гіперсемою/гіперсемами – семантичним компонентом вищого порядку, що організовує навколо себе розгортання семантичного поля. Для встановлення ядра номінативного поля концепту VALUES в американському масмедійному дискурсі були опрацьовані дефініції ключової лексеми, а також пов'язаних із нею лексем у словниках та тезаурусах. Шляхом аналізу лексикографічних джерел установлено синонімічне розширення ключової лексеми та одиниць, пов'язаних з нею. Виокремлено низку соціокультурних цінностей американського суспільства, зокрема personal control over the environment; change; time and its control; equality / egalitarianism;individualism; privacy; individual achievement (status, success); self-reliance / independence; competition; future orientation; action / work orientation; informality; directness / openness / honesty; patriotism тощо. Здійснено аналіз частотності вживання ключових лексем та їх синонімічних розширень. Установлено, що до ядра концепту VALUES належить складник Action / Work orientation. До навколоядерної зони входять: Equality / Egalitarianism, Time and its control, Change, Individual achievement (status, success), Materialism / Acquisitiveness (possess(iveness), consume(rs), customer(s), goods, services), Privacy, Value(s) тощо. Складовими периферії концепту VALUES є: Practicality, Individualism, Competition, Personal control over the environment, Future orientation, Directness / openness / honesty (sincerity, sobriety, straightforward, frankness, earnest, etc.), American liberalism and capitalism, Informality тощо.

The purpose of the article is to study the possibilities of 3D modeling tools in the tasks of computer reconstruction of historical and cultural heritage sites. Creating 3D models of historical heritage elements and developing software for 3D printers. Modern memorials, places where historical and cultural values are preserved, have remained the least involved in global digitization. Therefore, the digitization of cultural heritage is an urgent problem today, because with the help of digital technologies you can not only create electronic copies of existing museum values, but also create a three-dimensional model of lost historical and cultural values. The research methods are a set of methods and technologies of 3D modeling, their capabilities and their application to solve problems of building a virtual reconstruction of historical and cultural heritage. Use 3D modeling technology to actually reconstruct historical and cultural monuments, such as archeological finds, and to create digital copies of museum exhibits. The novelty of the study is the use of modern computer technology to restore historical or cultural heritage that has been lost or partially lost. The processes of urbanization cover the traditional cultural space, actualizing the problem of preserving the historical and cultural heritage and national and cultural identity. Architectural complexes of the city, noble and land estates, temples and monasteries are being reconstructed; often historical and cultural heritage sites disappear in whole or in part due to the government's military policy. Some archeological sites or museums also need restoration, and computer simulations may be the best solution. Conclusions. Using 3D modeling you can get a three-dimensional model and then provide software to reconstruct damaged objects or reproduce their lost parts. Three-dimensional mathematical models are included in the digital archive of historical heritage and are available for further publication from anywhere in the world. On the basis of the created ...

The aim of the article is to study the implementation of wildlife values into the environmental policy of European Union and Ukraine. The research methodology is based on a comparative analysis of the activities of the EU and Ukraine in the protection of wildlife. The study has introduced the essence of the terms "wildlife" and "value of wildlife." The material and nonmaterial value of wildlife, which is currently the most demanded in EU, has identified. The activities of European Union and EU member states in the development of legislative and strategic framework for the protection of wildlife has analyzed. The peculiarity of the European model of wildlife conservation is revealed; it is the formation of strategic directions that are being developed by member-states in accordance with the national specifics. The main shortcomings of the wildlife conservation activities in Ukraine, in particular the lack of a generally accepted and legally enforced definition of "wildlife" has been disclosed. Ukraine's first steps on this path has been analyzed. Among them – the adoption in 2017 of the law "On Amendments to Some Legislative Acts of Ukraine on Protection of Forests under the Framework Convention for the Protection and Sustainable Development of the Carpathians"and the inclusion of 63 plots of ancient forests from ten European countries and Ukraine into the Ukrainian-Slovak-German UNESCO World Heritage Site "Virgin Beech Forests of the Carpathians". It has concluded that the European integration course of Ukraine requires not only the adaptation of domestic environmental legislation to the EU legal norms, but also the development of a separate environmental policy direction – the protection of wildlife. A number of recommendations have been developed for the main activities that should be carried out within its framework, in particular: the development of an appropriate concepts concerning wildlife and its introduction into domestic legislation, the creation of wildlife sites and the adoption of principles for ...

Great Britain has always been a country of traditions. Its high standards and rules of life are famous throughout the world. Working with articles from The Guardian information resource, we tried to analyze and understand how traditional British values are transformed nowadays. Analysis allowed us to identify several major categories of British traditional values. We found that not all values still exist in the modern world. Some of them gradually lost relevance, and some raised to a new level. In our work, we considered the following basic categories: politics, family and culture. Political values have lost their popularity, because attitudes towards political leaders have changed. It can be easily seen on the example of T. May political strategy. Due to Brexit Britain ceased to feel like a united country. Basic family values did not lose their positions and remain popular among the most part of British people. Cultural values (tolerance in particular) also continue to exist in the modern life, adapting to new realities. The results show that there are two opinions in the modern British information space. The British themselves still believe that they live according to old or common traditions. However, through the informational materials on The Guardian website, we saw that the society, in fact, doesn't follow traditions as much as before. The results of the work are important for the understanding of the process of mediatization in the UK and displaying social trends in the media. The work will help to study the functioning of the British media further.

The evolution of the theoretical and methodological approaches to understanding of essence of the ethnicity, character of the ethnos structure are critically analyzed in article. the changes in the number of ethnic and linguistic structure of the population as a whole in Ukraine and as in some regions are analyzed in the article. The centuries-old depedence on Moscow oppressor has led Ukrainian ethnos to particular qualitative state that was already noticed by the sociological discourse. One of the forms of this state is ethnomarginal subculture fixed in the structure of Ukrainian etnic superculture that are the consequences of postmoscowian syndrome. Other effects appears at a high level of linguistic assimilation (russification) of Ukrainians and ethnic groups, except the Russians, particularly in the cities of eastern and southern regions. It is found that the Ukraine gained independence, has led to new trends in changes of ethno languages population structure, compared with the previous Soviet era. Current trends in the integration process of global and national development increasingly actualize problems of interethnic relations in Ukraine, the consolidation of the nation, ethno-political consensus dictate the need for a balanced and democratic state ethnic policy. Sociological analysis of this etnosociocultural formation needs prior identification. Contemporary political conflict in Ukraine demands for the scientific approach to the definition, regulation and prediction of interethnic relations especially in its disfunctional dimension. The substance of spiritual values of the etnomarginal subculture is determined by its place in the structure of Ukrainian ethnic superculture. The contemporary conditions of interethnic relations are analyzed and the prospects of future researches are pointed out. The author focuses on methodological problems of subject's field. Keywords: ethnosociology, ethnomarginality, subculture. ; Багатовікова залежність від москвинських поневолювачів ввела український етнос в особливий якісний стан. Однією із форм виявлення цього стану є зафіксована у структурі української етнічної суперкультури етномаргінальна субкультура. Соціологічний аналіз функцій цього етносоціокультурного утворення потребує по¬переднього виявлення змісту ціннісних орієнтацій названої субкультури. Зміст ду¬ховних цінностей етномаргінальної субкультури визначається її місцем у структурі української етнічної суперкультури. Ключові слова: етносоціологія, етномаргінальність, субкультура.

There is a quite big progress in the area of education on acceptance and tolerance towards multiculturalism. The main supporter of politics of multiculturalism is Will Kymlicka, and therefore I refer to his thoughts in this essay. However, in contemporary socio-cultural situation of Western civilization, we need something more than the mere acceptance of cultural diversity. It is worth promoting educational programmes that include themes related to the raising of citizens' awareness of boundaries of self – both in the individual and group aspect. At the same time majority groups should be supported by some tools that would help them to protect their identities without harming others.
