The twentieth century was a time of active expansion of Christian culture throughout the world. The Catholic and some Protestant churches resorted to this. This culture, becoming global, accommodated, and united a large number of cultural and religious minorities. At the same time, promoting its uniqueness, it could not always confirm her identity. One of the characteristic features of the development of the modern world is an increased scale of events, greater internationalization of social processes, and their tendency to become global. Based on all modern problems, in the sense of their understanding and solution, Christian globalism were formed as a component of the doctrine of Christian denominations, which includes a full range of different concepts and ideas that reflect the typical human problems of modern civilization. Since Christian eschatology is confessionally multivariate, it makes sense to explore both the characteristics common to all denominations and specific to some of them, as well as to identify transformational models and forms of adaptation of eschatological ideas to today's realities. The actualization of the problem of moral-ethical and social aspects of Catholic eschatology, Christological-apocalyptic visions of Orthodox eschatological teaching, and the apocalyptic-prophetic character of Protestant eschatology in their transformational manifestations was designed to impart on the paper both theoretical and socio-practical significance.

The article analyzes the phraseology of German and Ukrainian languages with a gastronomic component, which reflect the uniqueness of the worldview of Germans and Ukrainians; the role of gastronomic tokens in phraseology is considered; a study of "gastronomic" phraseological units in order to identify their national and cultural specifics. The activity of phraseologists was also analyzed and it was found that despite the significant number of works in this field, a large number of unresolved issues remain today. The relevance of phraseological research is determined by attention to the problems of national self-awareness, the need to find new approaches to the study of phraseological unit as a treasure trove of national connotations, as well as the specifics of the image in the phraseology of national mentality. The study of phraseology is due to the fact that the phraseological system of any language has national and cultural specifics. An object in a certain culture exists in a specific environment unique to that culture, has culturally conditioned associative connections. The study of phraseological units allows us to consider the full range of national connotations, and to trace the features of the national mentality of a nation, to show the differences and commonalities in culture. Gastronomy, along with language, is one of the most important tools for learning another culture. It is an important component of the mentality of nations. Gastronomy reflects the religious views, way of life and way of life of representatives of different nationalities. Food culture reflects national identity, cultural characteristics, customs and typical habits of society. Phraseologisms with a gastronomic component in German and Ukrainian have both in common and a number of differences due to the peculiarities of the mentality of the German and Ukrainian peoples. It is these common and distinctive features that we tried to show in our study. Phraseologisms of gastronomic discourse allow us to reveal the characteristic features of the reflection of the picture of the world, which is why it is so important to study them.

First World

This chapter suggests that the consequences of the First World War for patterns of Christian belief and the life of the churches were indeed great, but that they stimulated, not an immediate loss of faith, but rather the emergence and increasingly distinct self-definition of some of the most characteristic themes and divergent styles of Christianity in the modern world. It then identifies the main implications of the war for Christianity on a world stage. First, the war came close to destroying the spirit of Protestant internationalism that had been so powerfully symbolized and fostered by the World Missionary Conference held at Edinburgh in June of 1910. A second consequence of the war was the gradual erosion of credibility of the European ideal of “Christian civilization,” and consequent softening of the antithesis between “Christian West” and “Non-Christian East.” Third, the war led some theological interpreters to question the more facile expressions of Christian liberalism and social optimism to which sections of the Protestant churches had succumbed since the dawn of the twentieth century. A fourth spiritual consequence of the war was the stimulus it imparted to forms of religion that emphasized the suprarational, and hence the limits of rational human capacity to change the world.

Synergetics is a science of self-organization of complex systems - biogeocoenosis, social systems, consciousness, human thinking, information and technology complexes. Synergetics seeks to create a "single field" of interdisciplinary communication, to form the principles of a scientific picture of the world. The unevenness of complex systems under certain conditions gives rise to the self-organization of both natural and social processes. As a doctrine of self-development, synergetics rebuilds contemporary worldview and thinking, through which one can understand the instability, nonlinearity, and openness of the modern world in its uniqueness and integrity.

The Subject

Bernhard Waldenfels formulates the concept of everydayness as a “crucible of rationality”, in which everydayness is viewed as a social boundary and non-reflective social background of the subject’s interactions with the world of social reality. We explore the potential of everydayness in the detection of the identity of a social subject and rethink Waldenfels’s concept of everydayness. The research method is a phenomenological analysis. In everyday activities of the subject, structures of the humanity’s material culture are replicated and changed. The role of everydayness is growing in the modern world, along with the subjective role of a particular individual. The identification of the social subject in everydayness occurs at the level of natural and social corporeality, which is provided by the heuristics of the adaptive response to the transformation of social processes in the context of the subject’s everyday interactions. Everydayness is represented as constituent and constructive modes of the social being of the subject.

Educational Paradigms

This article deals with issues affecting philosophical, educational, cultural and social aspects of the study paradigm of modern education, given the fact that today educational polyparadigm of has actualized: existing scientific paradigms complement each other, converge and have cultural and historical continuity. The author emphasizes that the definition and justification of the modern educational paradigm certainly requires compliance with a number of requirements, the account of which effectively explains and predicts the processes of development of the education system which are themselves the principles of construction of educational paradigms. It is stated that the concept of the paradigm of educational revolutionis seen as very productive in the analysis of the state of education in the context of globalization and internationalization of the world. Stressing the paradigmatic education, more precisely, its poly-paradigm essence, the author emphasizes that a single, integrated educational paradigm relevant to this modernity and developed by scientific community is seen etiologically impossible; reason, in his opinion, lies in the pluralistic nature of our time – if it is plural, respectively, models and mechanisms of assimilation of modernity must be equally multiple and diverse. The author concludes that the existence of a pluralistic modernity requires the simultaneous co-existence of many modern paradigms of education, each of which provides the necessary unanimityof any of educational project in specific socio-political, national, cultural, material and economic, administrative and legal conditions.
