The article focuses onto the theoretical developments of Ukrainian specialists in cultural studies, which were provided during the last decade. It is noted that the active development of cultural knowledge requires both the fixation of already worked out problems and the definition of new problems in the logics of further research process. It is shown that during the 2010-2020 period the theoretical interest of scientists was directed to the argumentation of specific principles of cultural analysis, which helps to distinguish “Cultural Studies” among other “structural elements” of humanism, in particular, socio-political knowledge, philosophy, aesthetics, history and theory of religion, art criticism, etc. The “boundary sphere” is outlined, where the theoretical interests of cultural studies intercross with other Humanities. The importance of generalization and systematization of those theoretical spheres that are in consideration of modern Ukrainian scientists is pointed out and those “white spots” are more clearly delineated that year by year are in the focus of researchers’ attention. Besides, basing onto the publications that appear during 2019, especially those that reflect the conceptual basis of future PhD or doctoral dissertations, it can be argued that scientists mostly “push off” from those groundworks that were to some extent stated previously in 2018-2019
