Article is dedicated to the systematisation and synthesis of conceptual and theoretical approaches related to the clarification of the relationship of ideology and everyday life and their correlation. In addition, the article identifies the basic concepts, with theoretical and methodological importance for understanding the issues and principles of reflective analysis of the ideological everyday life. Ideology at the level of everyday life is seen in breaking through everyday human existence, being a bearer of public relations. Identification of theoretical approaches in the study of ideology in the context of everyday life allows to update subjects related to various aspects of this study and to determine the contours of its problem field when ideology at the level of everyday life is seen through the breaking of the daily existence of a human as a medium of social relations, as well as ideologically intense everyday life. Return of everyday life as the subject appears in the emphasis on everyday "establishment" of social reality in its ideological dimension. It is the coordinates of the correlation of ideology and everyday life, which can be used to construct the concept of ideological everyday life. Certain approaches to this subject can be traced in its ideology in the breaking with the semantic aspect of everyday life. Ideology is capable of forming the tissue of social reality, with ideological knowledge and values serving as important social functions, organizing, regulating, directing and integrating the activities of people in the spiritual, political, economic and social spheres of public life. The problem field of socio-philosophical reflection regarding the ideological everyday life includes the selection of theoretical research approaches and building a methodological construct, based on the conceptualization of the basic concepts and the delineation of the broad outlines of the study. The choice of the theoretical research approaches is determined by complex and multifactorial nature of the research subject - the ideological everyday life as a concept and a social phenomenon. As a result, the theoretical and methodological approach aims to understand what should and what can perform social and philosophical knowledge in a rapidly evolving social reality of the transitional Russian society.

The purpose of this article is to identify the means of social and philosophical analysis of the nature and trajectory of the past in the reception of practices for manifestations of social amnesia. The phenomenon of social amnesia is ontologically inscribed in the social reality and is particularly pronounced in periods of social and cultural crisis. It is the reason why the configuration of manifestations of social memory in the characteristics of the national historical process becomes cyclically-wave in nature, when periodically lost contents of memory can go back to history in processed form, responding to the requests of the era and the political class. As memory serves as "the guardian of the past" and a repository of information about the past, the story, which reveals the memory loss, is associated with it or with nostalgia for the past. As a result, social memory, having functional and structural-informative features, includes not only the processes of remembering, but of forgetting, and the nature and trajectory of the reception of the past in contemporary socio-cultural practices, constituting that the essence of social amnesia is peculiar for the deformed character.

The article analyzes paradigmatic fundamentals of national security studies and shows that methodologically these fundamentals are unilateral and do not allow to consider the national security as a holistic phenomenon. The authors argue that the development of the multi-dimensional methodological constructs of national security studies within the neoclassical model of research is a prerequisite for overcoming the methodological unilateralism of the "paradigm of interests" and the "paradigm of values". This model for studying the national security is based on the synthetic use of the methodological capacity of various paradigmatic fundamentals of its research, supplemented with heuristic capabilities of the "soft power" theory, which is considered to induce others to do what is required by the government, without direct violence. In the context of globalization, "soft power" is an important tool for protecting the national security. DOI:10.5901/mjss.2015.v6n5s4p266

The article presents an analysis of the trauma phenomenon in the context of the past historical experience reception problematics. The author shows how the trauma of the past, which is a collective phenomenon, condition experienced by a group, community, or society as a result of devastating events socio-culturally interpreted as the injury is a consequence of the experience of unsuccessful public consciousness, or even a humiliating or tragic experience of the past, may have an impact on the mass consciousness, disintegrate the society, prevent its consolidation, promote an increase in sociocultural conflicts and social tensions, protests, and even aggressive behavior. The problems of the past reception are closely linked to ensuring national security, as through the understanding of its historical past and the association of events and phenomena in our historical past with meanings and value the process of self-consciousness of the people and its unity takes place. The trauma of the past in the practice of the historical experience reception turns out to be placed in the space of intercultural interaction of the past and present, when through the reception by means of sociocultural practices, the past enters the present, but due to the contradictory perception and ambiguous interpretations by political elites and various social groups of events, situations, and images of the past, "memory gaps" occur, and unordered (unstable) social memory is formed, which hinders ensuring national security.
