The subject of the presented article is the analysis of Cardinal Stefan Wyszyński’s personalistic vision of social life in the context of the liberal capitalism concept. The author’s interpretation of the source materials aims to display Wyszyński’s praxeological and ethical reflection and place it in the context of the socio-economic aspects of human life, characteristic of liberal capitalism. The exploration of the above research will analyze the source texts and their reinterpretation using the inductive-deductive method. The above paper’s primary research goal is to show the moral message of Cardinal Wyszyński in the context of the Christian vision of involvement in socio-economic life and its application to the specific reality of contemporary public life. The author of the article asks whether the moral message rooted in the personalistic vision of the human person presented by Cardinal Wyszyński can be applied to the contemporary reality of social, political, and economic life, where liberal capitalism seems to be the dominant ideology of the Western world? The answer to such questions is essential, especially in the context of the revival of “collectivist” populism, which, combined with the ideas of the so-called “Ideological pluralism,” emphasizing the moral ambivalence of “liquid” postmodernity, becomes a severe challenge to the entire modern world

The article presents the philosophical analysis of the basic aspects and specificity of conceptualization of the idea of dignity in the contemporary intellectual discourse. The discussion of the issue of dignity is topical due to the urgent need to develop new strategies of social interaction which would correspond to the new sociocultural and civilizational conditions and would take into consideration the specificity of human life and at the same time would establish basic moral intentions of human behavior and identity. In the process of investigation the following methods were applied: dialectical, hermeneutical, phenomenological, and comparative. The analysis has proved that the contemporary intellectual discourse represents dignity as the multifaceted phenomenon that has distinctive ethical, psychological, economic, legal aspects and still preserves its conceptual ambiguity. The idea of dignity proves to be significant not only in the moral, spiritual sphere, but is equally vital in social-political, economic spheres of social life as well as in the everyday human interaction and communication. Dignity is regarded as the value concept, the characteristic feature of a person determined by various and often opposite behavioral imperatives in different sociocultural environments. The idea of dignity inevitably depends on the set of socially meaningful norms and principles that provide the recognition of the self-value of an individual and determine his/her social worth. The research has proved that the unified conceptual definition of dignity in the contemporary reality may become possible only providing the distinct understanding of the sociocultural and worldview grounds for the whole range of dignity connotations. The review of the contemporary theoretical discourse on the issue of human dignity has proved that the concept of dignity is far from being clearly defined; therefore, its clarifying still remains as the significant challenge to the contemporary philosophy.

<p>Globalization covers the most diverse spheres of human life, including social, where the processes of migration and globalization of culture take on special significance. Cultures arise and develop, interacting with each other. And the first field of this interaction is the diaspora. Diaspora is the environment where culture is directly developed and enriched. The development of diasporas is carried out by spreading the culture, values and traditions of their people, but at the same time integrating into society with a different culture, which implies the acquisition of new socially and spiritually significant qualities. The psychological reason for the emergence of the diaspora is that people far from their homeland begin to understand, appreciate and even more love their native culture. The development of the modern world is characterized, as we know, by globalization. Can the phenomenon of the diaspora in modern social life be associated with it? No, because the diaspora is directly connected with culture, while globalization is opposed to culture. Globalization is aimed at unification, ignoring the problem of cultural identity. Globalization involves the erasure of cultural features, the loss of cultural, ethnic, religious differences. But at the same time, globalization contributes to the growth of population migration, which leads to an increase in the number of diasporas abroad. The rapid growth of immigrant communities and their institutionalization forced to talk about "the diasporaization of the world" as one of the scenarios for the development of mankind. One way or another, this process deepens and takes more and more new forms, and the role of diasporas and their influence are intensified.</p>

The article debates the issues of collectivism and individualism in the context of Cardinal Stefan Wyszyński’s personalistic vision of man. The praxeological approach to Wyszyński’s personalism inscribes the Christian social teaching in post-war Poland’s specific socio-political realities. In this context, a critical analysis of the concept of the human person functioning in the dimension of various ideologies is essential. For that reason, the above article will explain the specificity of the collectivist and individualistic ideology. It allows us to understand better the danger of distorting social life’s vision concerning the Western world’s modern civilization. In this sense, a personalistic idea of human life shows that contemporary social life models, if they are to be shaped “a human measure,” must be based on systems promoting “pro-human” values, inscribed in an authentically humanistic vision of man and citizen.

This essay explores a peculiarly Victorian solution to what was perceived, in the middle of the nineteenth century, as a peculiarly Victorian problem: the fragmentation and miscellaneousness of the modern world. Seeking to apprehend the multiplicity and chaos of contemporary social, intellectual, political, and economic life, and to furnish it with a coherence that was threatened by encroaching religious uncertainty, Victorian poets turned to the resources of genre as a means of accommodating the heterogeneity of the age. In particular, by devising ways of fusing the conventions of the traditional epic with those of the newly ascendant novel, poets hoped to appropriate for the novelistic complexity of modern, everyday life the dignifying and totalizing tendencies of the epic. The essay reevaluates the generic hybridity of Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s Aurora Leigh (1856) as an attempt to unite two distinct kinds of length—the microscopic, cumulative detail of the novel and the big-picture sweep of the epic—in order to capture the miscellaneousness of the age and, at the same time, to restore order and meaning to the disjointed experience of modernity.

The recognition of versatile importance of vegetation for the human life resulted in the emergence of vegetation science and many its applications in the modern world. Hence a vegetation map should be versatile enough to provide the basis for these applications. Thus, a vegetation map should contain not only information on vegetation types and their derivatives but also the geospheric and climatic background. While the geospheric information could be obtained, mapped and generalized directly using satellite remote sensing, a computerized Geographic Information System can integrate it with meaningful vegetation information classes for large areas. Such aft approach was developed with respect to mapping forest vegetation in India at. 1 : 100 000 (1983) and is in progress now (forest cover mapping at 1 : 250 000). Several review works reporting the experimental and operational use of satellite remote sensing data in India were published in the last years (Unni, 1991, 1992, 1994).

Given the trends in the modern world, as well as the rapid growth of digitalization, it is safe to say that it will inevitably affect almost all areas of human life and activities. Dmitriev’s English dictionary defines the word readiness: «It is a state where everything is done to start doing something.» Accordingly, an assessment of the company’s readiness to integrate modern digital technologies will identify opportunities, risks and threats, strengths and weaknesses of the enterprise, as well as to formulate a list of initial measures that need to be implemented. Thus, there is an urgent need to find an answer to the following questions: «How (by, what criteria and indicators) to measure readiness?», «What are the approaches to readiness assessment?» The purpose of this article is to develop a model and algorithm to assess the company’s readiness to integrate modern digital technologies. Modelling techniques were used to achieve this goal, as well as to analyze and generalize information. As a result of the research, a model for assessing the company’s readiness to integrate modern digital technologies has been developed and tested, based on the quality management model presented in the ISO 9000 series standards. A particular example shows how to use it and what it ultimately allows you to see and evaluate.

On the basis of the archetypic analysis of development trends of a conflictological paradigm the author’s model of minimization of conflict potential in modern society is offered. Institutional construction is the basis for model that is harmonized with a factor of societal identity.It is noted that the problems of social conflicts, according to data from monitor- ing studies of the Ukrainian school of archetype, are increasingly shifted into the sphere of interpersonal relations. It is stimulated by the progression in society of so-called self-sufficient personalities, the “subjectification” of the social space, and at the same time narrowing down to the solution of entirely specific situations in which there is a collision of the interests of two or more parties.Instead, in order to find the optimal solution for resolving the conflict, it is necessary to have interdisciplinary knowledge, in particular understanding of the deep nature of such conflicts. Collision of points of view, thoughts, positions — a very frequent phenomenon of modern social life. In order to develop the correct line of behavior in various conflict situations, it is important to adequately under- stand the nature of the emergence of the modern conflict and the mechanisms for resolving them in substance. Knowledge of conflict nature enriches the culture of communication and makes human life and social groups not only more calm, but also creates conditions for constructive development. It is proved that in modern life one can not but agree with the statement that an individual carries first re- sponsibility for his own life and only then for the life of the social groups to which he belongs. And while making decisions within the framework of modern mecha- nisms (consensus), the properties of human psychology such as extroversion, emo- tionality, irrationality, intuition, externality, and executive ability will not at least contribute to such a task.That is why in the author’s research attracted attention to the archetypal na- ture of the conflict — the primitive images, ideas, feelings inherent in man as a bearer of the collective unconscious.
