The author of the article shows that the term «Diaspora» is often found in foreign scientific circulation. Scientists are gradually introducing new understandings and meanings into the content of the concept of «Diaspora». The definition of «Diaspora» is based on various criteria and characteristics - ethnic, religious, economic, political, etc. And although this word was used in the distant past, however, fundamental developments regarding the concept of «Diaspora» appeared relatively long ago. In the 90s of the twentieth century, a large number of different definitions and typologies of diasporas were proposed, even a new discipline was formed – Diaspora studies. It was during this period that the use of terms such as «Diaspora» and «transnationalism» increased. The author emphasizes the importance of research by such foreign scientists as John A. Armstrong, Rogers Brubaker, Michel Bruneau, Nicholas Van Hear, Milton J. Esman, James Clifford, Robin Cohen, Alain Medam, William Safran, Valeriy Tishkov, Thomas Faist, Gabriel Sheffer. Analyzes the well-known works of these authors regarding the definition of the concept of «Diaspora» and its types. Draws attention to the fact that diasporas today are not only historically formed communities that live outside the country of origin and adhere to ethnocultural traditions. These are certain forces of influence on the authorities of the country of residence and a political instrument in the international arena.
The development of modern technologies, expanded access to cyberspace has also affected the functioning of the diasporas. These changes were reflected in new terms – «e-diasporas», «net-diasporas», «web-diasporas», «Onlinediasporas», «digital diasporas». Proves the need for a clear definition of the concept of «Diaspora», because the process of Diaspora takes on new forms and the influence of diasporas is increasing both in the countries of residence and in the countries of origin. The lack of a definition of the specified period directs scientists to further study the problem.

The author of the article shows that conflicts attract the attention of representatives of various fields of knowledge (philosophy, sociology, conflict studies, psychology, history, political science, jurisprudence, military science, culturology, art, ethnology, pedagogy and etc.), in particular, in order to develop optimal ways to resolve them at various levels of deployment of conflict confrontation between different parties. Emphasizes that conflict should be considered as one of the types of social interaction. Its participants can be individuals, human groups, organizations, institutions, societies, countries, states and so on. Phenomena of conflicts, from ancient times to the present, in various artistic forms reflect the reality of a certain era and features of historical time. Artistic understanding of the phenomena of conflicts complements, strengthens and facilitates the scientific analysis of the problems of conflicts and the dynamics of their course. Analyzes the reasons that, since cinema is one of the most popular art forms of today, combining creativity and production, cinema itself can be actively involved in the processes of deconflict of Ukrainian society. Indicates the specifics of feature film: it affects the deep layers of consciousness, touches all the strings of the human soul and at the same time reflects the current problems of today; forces the viewer to identify with the characters of the film and actively include their ideals, principles, behavior and thinking in their real lives. He concludes that cinema, given its subject matter and plot, plays a significant role in shaping both aggressive and peaceful behavior of people, ie it can contribute to either increasing the level of conflict situations in society, or their leveling. Proves that in order to reduce the level of conflict in society, it is necessary to reduce the number of films that contain open displays of violence, bloody scenes and large-scale plans of terror; it is necessary to increase the number of high-quality Ukrainian films of patriotic orientation.

It is shown that participation in hostilities affects a person's psychological state. Being in a combat zone can dramatically change the personality and often - negatively. Mental injuries received during combat operations lead to a number of complex disorders in the physical and emotional spheres of man. This leads to various conflict situations in society. The destructive effects of war are manifested not only in physical losses, but also in social disorientation, loss of social contacts, the integrity of the "I" and theс personal identity of both servicemen and civilians. The consequences of combat mental trauma in various manifestations can be seen even after many years. Without proper psychological rehabilitation, it is difficult for such people to return to a peaceful life and to their social role in society. Therefore, art therapy can come to the rescue here, which in a set of rehabilitation measures can relieve a person of negative feelings, encourage him and help build new life patterns.
It is indicated that art therapy was formed as a specific activity that includes art, psychology and psychotherapy. Usually art therapy is part of a set of rehabilitation measures; she has certain advantages in diagnosis. Important aspects of the art therapist's work are his professional contacts with colleagues – psychiatrists, nurses, social workers and others. Attempts to use art therapy techniques without close contact with healthcare professionals are often considered unethical and can be harmful to patients. It is proved that art therapy helps to reduce depressive symptoms and aggression, helps to correct behavior, improve communication skills and integration into society.

Art has always been a part of every day life. People can get values and ideas trough art and it's in a way that people enjoy. There are a lot of visual art representing sorrow and sadness regarding to an actual conflict. Not only to make people understand, this art also can be a way of seeking help, to truly understand the condition of people and what is the conflict about. It is well known that in the modern world art is actively used for the purpose of relaxation, rehabilitation and reduction of emotional tension in conflict situations. The importance of art as a specific tool of influence, which helps in resolving complex conflicts in society and contributes to peacekeeping, is analyzed. It is stated that the present day Russian-Ukrainian armed confrontation significantly intensifies the processes of conflict of different spheres of public life of Ukrainian citizens. It is suggested to use art therapy as an effective method of solving various conflict situations, in particular, in the current conditions of armed conflict in Ukraine. As art therapy has proven itself to be an effective method of exiting a person from a morbid condition, now in Ukraine, in order to deconflictization of society, it is necessary to use art therapy in the psychological rehabilitation of warriors and internally displaced persons. Art therapy was formed as a specific activity that includes art, psychology and psychotherapy. Art therapy can deprive a person of negative feelings, encourage him and help build new life patterns. That is why the issues of deconflictization of the society and restoration of peace in Ukraine are considered in the context of holding various cultural state events, in particular artistic ones. It is also important that modern technological development has created wide-ranging opportunities for art as a stabilizing factor in the state.

Conflicts may arise within countries as well as between different countries. Conflict is an integral component of human existence. Conflicts occur in the economic, political, social, ideological, military, managerial and other spheres of public life. Accordingly, the methods and ways of their settlement vary significantly. It is dangerous that both internal (intrastate) and external (interstate) conflicts reduce the country's ability to defend its own interests in the world. Under certain circumstances, such conflicts can be used by external and internal players as an instrument of pressure on the state leadership and encourage it to adopt decisions and agreements that are unfavorable for the country. The solution to any conflicts requires a deep understanding of both the nature of their occurrence and the dynamics of the flow.
Today the most dangerous for Ukraine is the armed conflict in the Donbass. This conflict was provoked by the Russian Federation, which sees our country as a "buffer zone" against international military threats. The level of conflict in the zone of armed confrontation is very high. Negotiations at the international level and the efforts to resolve the conflict in Donbass did not bring the desired success. The citizens of Ukraine have no confidence in the successful completion of this conflict. It provokes a social apathy and aggression in Ukrainian society. The cessation of the armed conflict in Donbass is extremely important both for Ukraine and the entire world community. Now Ukraine is forced to develop a strategy of national self-preservation in the difficult and uncertain conditions of international security. Finding optimal answers to hybrid threats is a necessary precondition for maintaining the sovereignty and territorial integrity of our state.

The territorial integrity of Ukraine and peace on its lands, preservation of state sovereignty are the main tasks of the Ukrainian government, society, and all Ukrainians. As for as today the real threats from the Russian Federation remain, the Kremlin's aggressive policy in the hybrid war against our state is aimed at returning Ukraine to the sphere of Russia's influence. For doing this the Russian Federation is using methods that destabilize the internal situation in Ukraine, first of all, it depletes the Ukrainian economy, uses a powerful propaganda arsenal to distort Ukrainian national values and national culture, and misleads the allies of the Ukrainian state. A large-scale propaganda campaign against our country in certain areas of the Ukrainian state made it possible to perceive events in Ukraine through the prism of the views of politicians, scientists and artists of the Russian Federation. In such a situation, it is possible to confront Russian aggression only by using a complex of military, political, economic, informational and socio-humanitarian actions. In these conditions, culture and art are becoming an important means of solving complex social conflicts. Modern technological development has created a wide field for cultural and artistic influences, which has the opportunity to play a stabilizing role in the state. The through the influence on social consciousness can achieve important results in creating of certain ideas, values, spiritual needs as well as stereotypes and patriotic ideals. Such special way of influence on social conscious is art. The art represents significant and value dimension of the national being of the Ukrainians, gives a vision of historical being of the Ukrainian national, reflects spiritual links between a personality and the national, spiritual unity and succession of generation; both imaginative-symbolic and significant attributes of the national values and ideals are characteristic of it. Therefore, the question of restoration of peace, consolidation of Ukrainians, de-occupation of Ukrainian territories is considered in the context of conducting various cultural state measures, in particular artistic ones. That is why such purposeful usage of art in modern conditions the can be a powerful factor of consolidation of Ukrainians.

It is shown, that for the further development of the Ukrainian Statehood the feeling of the national unity of all elitist groups and agreement by them about strategical perspectives of the nation's progress is necessary. The powerful factors of consolidation of Ukrainianess are forming presence of national elite that must instance public unity. Influence of national elite on development of all spheres of life of the state, on introduction and efficiency of functioning of democratic reforms in a country, on the level of economic and spiritual stability in society does not cause doubts. Consolidation of Ukrainianess depends on ability national of economic, intellectual and other political elites to produce strategies of development of the state protect her interests directly. The process of consolidation is protracted and heavy, he presents a main socio-political task to development of society. And as exactly a national elite forms reference points for advancement of the state, then it is necessary, that she, first of all, was of interest all society, was highly skilled and enjoyed a confidence among a population, successive and open in the actions, shut out internal conflicts and squabbles, that will become the mortgage of rallying of all Ukrainianess. As elites play in the society certain social functions, so the different elite's groups are marked out. Each of these groups realizes its own complex of duties, so that the criteria, determining the belonging to some of the elitist group are different. In this study the condition of the modern Ukrainian artistic elite is analyzed. The result of artistic and practical activity of the artistic elite is art which appears as a specific means of influencing public consciousness. The art represents significant and value dimension of the national being of the Ukrainianess, gives a vision of historical being of the Ukrainian national, reflects spiritual links between a personality and the national, spiritual unity and succession of generation. That is why purposeful usage of art in modern conditions the can be a powerful factor of consolidation of Ukrainianess. The artistic elite of Ukraine creating artistic works offering cultural and artistic programs and projects should lay the ideas of national unity and patriotism in them.

In the modern world, there is a growing interest in the problem of forming a person's identity.

he author of the article shows that in art there have always been and are works of art that accurately reflect life conflict situations. They become an object of study for their further prevention and leveling. In turn, the artistic understanding of conflict phenomena complements, strengthens and facilitates the scientific analysis of the problems of the emergence of conflicts and the dynamics of their passage. In the visual arts, the works of the master depicting war, armed conflicts and confrontations are singled out in a separate - battle genre. Its origins can be found in many ancient cultures around the world. Draws attention to the fact that each of the stages in the development of culture leaves the next generations with examples of art with the fixation of external signs of the way of life. As well as social, national, spiritual, aesthetic issues of their time. Renaissance artists in battle compositions not only glorified the victories of commanders and conquerors and recorded important historical moments of military campaigns, but also filled these plots with new deep content. Artists of the 17th century openly addressed the realities of contemporary life, in particular, such dramatic phenomena as war and armed conflicts. In their works, they praised heroes, kings and generals, at the same time exposed robberies, looting and cruelty of soldiers. During the Napoleonic War, artists concentrated on conveying victories, heroism and glory in the war. They also showed his ugly sides: fear of hunger, cruelty, executions of prisoners, rape and human degradation. In the twentieth century. the methods and means of warfare have changed significantly, this clearly manifested itself during the First World War. Accordingly, the art of this period is the art of great upheavals, revolutions and world wars. Nowadays, both foreign and domestic artists, mainly work in a realistic style, they depict in detail military equipment, elements of combat, soldiers in dynamics. The point is that such paintings are replacing color photography, because today they are in significant demand. Proves that the plots of wars, battles and conflicts remain in demand in art, they continue to actively influence people's emotions and the formation of public opinion.

The article considers Ukrainian realities and specifics of armed conflicts in the post-bipolar world in the context of NBICS-technologies. To solve this problem, an integrative approach was used, which involves considering the object of study in its connections and interdependencies with other processes and phenomena, as well as taking into account the interaction of various factors that determine the formation and development of conflictizational phenomena. After the collapse of the bipolar model, there was a deep crisis in the provision of all security systems (international, macro-regional, mesoregional, national and micro-regional). The fundamental problem of international relations in the post-bipolar world is the high level of their conflict. In the days of globalization, one of the first places is technical and technological, scientific, innovative and information factors (associated with the development of nanotechnology, genetic engineering, the formation of global information technology networks of production and marketing, with the integration of science, education and production, that is, with all the leading industries of the sixth technological mode), nowadays these factors and NBICS-technologies are becoming more interdependent. In today's world, the sciences of the strategic level are those that are part of the NBICS complex (these are the scientific disciplines that develop the latest nano-, bio-, information, cognitive and social technologies). Since both Ukrainian studies and conflictology belong to the field of socio-humanitarian studies, they can be aimed at developing and using the deconflictizational potential of Ukrainians, as well as information, cognitive, social and creative resources of the Ukrainian person and the Ukrainian community. Integrative capabilities of modern Ukrainian studies allow combining conceptual tools and research principles not only of Ukrainian studies and conflict studies, but also of social philosophy, history, political science, cognitology, information science, sociology, culturology, psychology, anthropology, military science in the study of conflictizational processes of the cultural and historical space of Ukrainians in the conditions of modern challenges and threats.

The article considers Ukrainian realities in the conditions of the war. The authors of the article develop the Ukrainian version of the «smart power» strategy as a key prerequisite for Ukraine"s victory in the Russian-Ukrainian neo-imperial war. To solve this problem, an integrative approach was used, which involves considering the object of study in its connections and interdependencies with other processes and phenomena, as well as taking into account the interaction of various factors that determine the formation and development of conflictizational phenomena. Integrative capabilities of modern Ukrainian studies allow combining conceptual tools and research principles not only of Ukrainian studies and social philosophy, but also of history, political science, information science, sociology, psychology, socio-cultural anthropology, imperialology, communication studies, post-colonial studies and military science in the study of the strategy of a «smart power» in the conditions of modern challenges and threats. The authors of the article analyze the main components of the Ukrainian version of the «smart power» strategy in the conditions of the Russian-Ukrainian neo-imperial war, and also propose to combine not only «hard» and «soft power» within the framework of the «smart power» strategy, but also the intellectual potential of scientific and expert environment of Ukraine. The article examines competence in the field Ukrainian studies as an important component of the strategy of a «smart power», which in the Russian-Ukrainian neo-imperial war is most effective in defending Ukrainian national interests, and in the field of deoccupation of the Ukrainian society, and in the field of ensuring national security of Ukraine. The article analyzes the fundamental role of constructive interaction between education and science in utilizing the "smart power" strategy as the basis for deconflicting the society and reintegration of the people of the occupied Ukrainian territories. Competence in the field Ukrainian studies is seen as a effective way to overcome the negative consequences of the informational war.
