Abstract. On the horizon of literary criticism today, text just does not have a general meaning, but any text is in a state of waiting to read readers and reproduce new meanings. Shakespeare's texts are texts that are repeatedly presented with different types of readings from different perspectives, and each time a new reproduction of them is obtained. The present research seeks to present a new reading of Shakespeare's Othello drama using post-colonial studies. The Othello play has qualities that can be considered postcolonial. Therefore, the present paper, with a post-colonial approach, reciprocates Edward Said views with a qualitative, analytical, and descriptive approach to reading this play, referring to a large historical and political structure.Keywords: Post-Colonial Studies-Edward Said-Othello-William Shakespeare. ; Abstract.

A comprehensive study of management policy of post-conflict territory is done. It is characterized as a management process that is localized within the territory affected by the armed conflict. It is seen as a resource by various political actors and requires the establishment of institutional order and overcoming the consequences of the conflict.Management policy of post-conflict territories was studied through its components: "post-conflict territory", "armed conflict", "post-conflict", "postconflict management". The study of the subject became possible due to interdisciplinary theoretical and methodological approaches and methods of political science, political geography, geopolitics, international relations, political regionalism, conflict studies, law and management.It is substantiated that in the context of studying the management policy of post-conflict territory, there is no need to study the territory as a subject of conflict. The expediency of studying such a territory as a space affected by the armed conflict is argued. As a result of the conflict the territory has a ruined system of governance or weak institutional forms of development that require development "from scratch" or reintegration into a national high-level system. ; Здійснено комплексне дослідження політики управління постконфліктними територіями як управлінського процесу, який локалізується в межах території, що зазнала впливу збройного конфлікту, розглядається як ресурс різними політичними акторами, потребує встановлення інституційного порядку і подолання наслідків конфлікту.Політику управління постконфліктними територіями досліджено через категорії: «постконфліктна територія», «збройний конфлікт», «постконфлікт», «постконфліктне управління», «політика управління». Вивчення предмету дослідження стало можливим завдяки міждисципінарним теоретикометодологічним підходам і методам політичної науки, політичної географії, геополітики, міжнародних відносин, політичної регіоналістики, конфліктології, права і політичного менеджменту.Обґрунтовано, що в контексті вивчення політики управління постконфліктними територіями немає потреби вивчати територію як предмет конфлікту. Доведена доцільність вивчення такої території в якості простору, що зазнав впливу збройного конфлікту, внаслідок чого має зруйновану систему управління або заслабкі інституційні форми розвитку, що потребують розбудови «з нуля» або реінтеграції в національну систему вищого рівня.

The author examines the peculiarities of the process of post-conflict reconciliation and peacebuilding in Rwanda, determines the role of international and local justice in the post-conflict reconciliation and punishment of perpetrators of mass genocide, identifies features of state policy to eliminate genocide and restore justice. Using historical, analytical and comparative methods, the author concludes that gachacha tribunals as a means of restorative justice have helped to restore trust and social harmony in Rwandan society, to regenerate its value and cultural matrix. The study found that in order to build positive peace, governance decisions and actions on the population in all spheres of public life contained a peacekeeping context, and the government worked to protect Rwandan society from a recurrence of future conflict. The findings found Rwandan's peace-building strategy to be effective because, following a large-scale genocide, a policy of national unity and reconciliation was pursued to build a united nation, restore peace and justice, good governance and economic development.

The article analyzes the phenomenon of post-truth as a significant intellectual and cultural symptom of modernity. There are considered its ability to reveal the content of the modern epoch, the place of post-truth in postmodern discourse, and the heuristic potential of the discourse upon the «post-». The main features of the post-truth as a communicative strat- egy are analyzed. On this basis, the incorrectness of definition of the present day as an era of «post-» is proved. The phenomenon of post-truth is just one of the symptoms of a deep crisis of justice, public morality and democratic governance, and, in general, the degradation of political responsibility and standards of public behavior in a globalizing world. ; У статті аналізується феномен постправди як вагомий інтелектуальний та культурний симптом сучасності. З'ясовуються його можливості щодо виявлення змісту сучасної епохи, місце постправди у постмодерному дискурсі та евристичний потенціал дискурсу «пост-». Аналізуються головні особливості постправди як комунікативної стратегії. На цій підставі доводиться некоректність визначення сучасності як епохи постправди. Феномен постправди є лише одним із симптомів глибокої кризи правосвідомості, суспільної моралі та демократичного урядування й загалом деґрадації політичної відповідальності та стандартів публічної поведінки за умов ґлобалізації.

The return of the state to sociological discourse can be based on the study of the role of state measures in societies that overcome the consequences of violence. The purpose of the article – is to outline the problems and some ways of overcoming them facing the state in the post-conflict reconstruction of society and can be successfully addressed by state authorities with varying degrees of success.Given that the state in a post-conflict society, as a rule, has a low level of public confidence and limited resources to resolve the conflict, the practice of peacekeeping operations and other organizational arrangements for building peace is widespread.In addition to the organizational component, the assistance of the Western world is in promoting and sometimes imposing in the transitional societies the legal norms and political institutions of the "old world", which often complicated the peace process and did not take into account the local context of peace-building. In addition, the speed at which international donors wanted to obtain a result from international intervention could contradict the long-term process of psychosocial and economic recovery of victims of the conflict.Modern theories of "transitional justice" try to overcome the contradiction between the limited support of international actors on the one hand and the fragility of the state and the weakness of civil society on the other.The researchers are proposing a model where the state interacts with civil society on the path to peace in the long run and reconciliation.A decentralized transitional justice model emerged in Northern Ireland, where local conciliation initia- tives combined community efforts and government and non-governmental interventions. Particular emphasis on overcoming the effects of violence is on reparations. However, there is no unambiguous universal form of payment to victims of the conflict to meet all economic needs. Reparations can take different forms – from money to symbolic ones. In addition, the decision to pay reparations is implemented by the state on the basis of agreements at the level of institutes of transitional justice, first of all, the truth-establishing commissions.In order to overcome the consequences of violence and the post-conflict reconstruction of a society, the state must take into account the whole range of social problems – political, socio-psychological, and economic. The solution to political problems is through the provision of broad political rights and ensuring the inclusiveness of social groups in society. Socio-psychological problems are solved in particular through the transformation of the group identity of the oppositional conflicts of social groups in the context of the exchange of social experience. Economic issues of post-conflict reconstruction concern the development of an effective reparation system at the individual, group and national levels. ; Стаття стосується спектра державних заходів щодо подолання наслідків насилля в процесі постконфліктного відновлення. Розкриваються соціально-політичні, соціально-психологічні та соціально-економічні особливості державної політики в постконфліктних суспільствах.

The article analyzes the Ukrainian national elite of the postcolonial era through the prism of citizenship. In recent years, the interest in elitist issues has been grown significantly. In modern socio-humanitarian field, the issues of the elites' role in the modern world, the criteria for evaluating different elite's activity, the measure of their citizenship, patriotism and professionalism are often discussed. Positive social transformations in many respects depend on the qualitative state of modern Ukrainian elites, on their socio-political maturity, on their willingness and ability to consolidate Ukrainian society, on the level of their responsibility for the fate of Ukraine. The author of the article follows to the concept of plurality of elites (based on the idea of distinguishing elite groups in the fields of their leading activities), which enables the allocation of political, ideological, publicadministrative, military, economic and engineering, scientific, spiritual, medical, educational (pedagogical), cultural-artistic, religious, informational, sporting, etc. In the post-colonial period, all these elite groups must become an integral elements of the Ukrainian national elite. In article the citizen is analyzed as a subject of qualitative social transformations in the post-colonial period, as well as civil practices of self-organization of society in the context of modern transformational processes in Ukraine by the article. The phenomenon of civic activity of an elitist person is analyzed in a theoretical, methodological and empirical perspective. The article deals with theoretical and methodological bases, structure and development peculiarities of the civil position of the personality. Civil society is seen as a cultural and historical type of society. The peculiarities of its formation and functioning in post-colonial Ukraine are analyzed. The author suggests his own periodization of the civil society development in Ukraine. So, the Ukrainian national elite would become the true subject of decolonization of Ukraine and positive social transformations only when all its representatives will begin to perform their core functions in a responsible way: culture-creating, state-building, nation-building, as well as consolidating, creative-transforming, forecasting, motivational, mobilizing, administrating, spiritual-ideological, identification, patriotic, humanistic, axiological, democratic, stabilizing, strategic, security, etc. The Ukrainian national elite must respond on time to the challenges posed by time (globalization, ecological, economic, technological, informational, etc.). The most important for modern Ukraine isn't only the formation of an effective and responsible political elite that could consolidate other elite groups, directing their activities in a constructive way, but also ensuring its timely rotation, qualitative upgrading, de-oligarchy and overcoming its alienation from society. The national elite must carry out highquality legal, political, socio-economic, socio-cultural, technological, ecological and other transformations; to support the integrity and spiritual unity of society, the development of democracy and self-organization processes in Ukraine, the formation and approval of a civil-political and European civilization identity of Ukrainian citizens.

In the paper, the author has outlined the representation of social problems inEnglish post-postmodernistic novel. It is found out that in post-postmodernism there is a return of the subject who retellspersonal stories related to the experience of injuries, pain, describing the situation of an existential choice. It has been analyzedthat characters reveal the need for existential truth, which opposes the discourse of the post- truth. It is discovered that theaccentuation on the personal component in the post-postmodernistic novel determines his particular sensuality andunderstanding of social conflicts and crises in terms of philosophy, psychology and medicine (human biology). On thematerial of D. Mitchell's "Cloud Atlas" the specificity of dystopia in post-postmodernistic novel has been investigated.Dystopia is a genre type of social science fiction, in which there is a criticism of social system, political institutions,ideological lack of freedom, etc. It was investigated that English post-postmodernistic novel is open to representing socialissues that were not exploited in postmodernism. The interaction of realistic and fictional in contemporary British novels has been analyzed. The features of (post)realism as one of the stylistic parameters of post-postmodernism are found out. A complex ofsocial problems and motives, which find a critical understanding in English post-postodernistic novel, has been spotlighted. References Hailend, M. Dzh. 2008. Uhamuite mene.

The article presents an attempt of the author to address the issue of post-truth in the legal reality. It tries to cover the issues of post-truth genesis as a term, its interrelation within philosophical, religious, journalistic discourse, and its essence and role in law. The author concludes that post-truth cannot be viewed as a newly established term and that it has continuously been used before. It has been used by different ancient nations' educated citizens, and continued on with being used by religious leaders and European philosophers afterwards. The idea of post-truth can be traced in most classic philosophic works, and it keeps getting attention by legal, philological, and philosophical researchers, as well as the researchers in other fields. Post-truth is currently one of the most addressed topics around the world due to its tight links with the current highly debatable political occurrences (annexation of Ukrainian Crimea, subsequent military operations in Eastern Ukraine, Brexit, recent United States' presidential elections, as well as many other aspects being clear only to a certain point. The main goal of post-truth as a term is to divert the attention of its object from applying rational decision making to applying emotional decision making even if one is not fully substituted by the other. It urges the object to be guided by emotions more than by common sense and rational choice while it does not fully dwell on emotions thus leaving room for certain rational choice decisions made under strict control of the newly created reality it is a basis of. This reality is also not a unique accomplishment. Virtual reality has been a subject of research for the whole of human history. It was well addressed by religious leaders (and still is), by scientists, psychologists, novelists, medical researchers, journalists, philosophers, as well as lawyers. The article specifically focuses on the role of post-truth in law, and makes a conclusion that this term is not new for law and legal practice, while there is a long evidence of post-truth ideas having been used in almost all court hearings, and by almost all participants. The article also points out the fact that due to its long history of co-existence with post-truth, law has developed a comprehensive set of borderlines partly aimed at dealing with post-truth negative outcome. It includes legal norms, procedural norms, legal knowledge, and common sense. The article also stresses the fact that posttruth methods may not always be used in a negative context. It is not uncommon of post-truth methods to have outcome positive for society or for certain individuals.Article received 13.05.2018 ; Статтю присвячено роздумам про актуальне на сьогодні поняття постправди у всій різноманітності його сприйняття.

It is very important for modern social theory to clear up main trends in it, to study the conditions and mechanisms for the development of sociality. This suggests the need to find new interpretive schemes. Purpose. The purpose of the work is to analyze the theoretical and methodological preconditions of social integrity phenomenon. Methods.
