Modern culture is often referred to as a post-religious one. One can assume that precisely because of the departure from the historical avansheny to the periphery of the existence of the religious sphere, the spectrum of problems of the spiritual plan is stable, avalanche collapses on the individual being of man in the world, increases the sense of crisis, hopelessness, which completely permeate her life. As a result, a modern type of personality with a boundary consciousness is formed, which preserves "in itself" the existence of all its contradictions, balancing on the verge of spiritual breakdowns. The final destruction of the spiritual foundations gradually leads to the development of an appropriate socio-cultural situation of the existential strategy of life beyond the semantic and value orientations. The phenomena of religious content as "carriers", translators of their respective ideas, ideals and values ​​at all stages of history "removed" this kind of tension, the tragic attitude of contemporary times that totally penetrates the micro level of their existence. Each subsequent epoch was in search of its own way in solving these problems of spiritual direction, which preserved relevance and infinite openness at all stages of histogenesis. That is why, in our opinion, there is a need for actualization, complex, philosophical comprehension of the basic ideas of the specified level, on the basis of which historically established value orientations of civilized communities, embodied in the form of one or another spiritual tradition.

Problems of morality have not lost significance in all times of human existence, but contained different accents in social manifestations. Modern anthropocentric tendencies of social life have also changed value orientations, because material values, human self-presentation in society, the desire for recognition as a manifestation of self-worth, somewhat level the spiritual, moral and ethical, cultural values. Therefore, consideration of the tasks of educating the moral culture of in a multicultural space is significant, especially today. The education of the moral culture of student youth in the spirit of universal ideals begins in early childhood, which is an important stage in human development. After all, at this time the necessary skills begin to form, such as: thinking, conscious perception of the world around and one’s own place in it, communication with other people. The task of moral culture of student youth in a multicultural space is to build a process of transformation of socially significant norms, principles governing relationships, universal moral values into individual qualities and the formation on this basis of children’s views and beliefs. The main attention is paid to emphasizing the importance of educating the moral culture of youth at the university in a multicultural space. The paper analyzes the scientific literature on the need for the process of educating the moral culture of youth at the university in a multicultural space. Methodical recommendations on successful education of moral culture of youth at the university in multicultural space are offered. It is concluded that the education of moral culture of student youth in a multicultural space is an organic part of the inner world of man and the world around him. This process determines the ethical, aesthetic, ideological values and norms, traditions, habits of the individual. It is manifested in lifestyle, behavior, thinking, attitude to work, the environment. Education of moral culture of student youth in the conditions of multicultural space in education is called to prevent formation of the one-dimensional person.

In world philosophical practice, yoga is given great attention: courses are given at leading universities of the world, various kinds of projects are being opened to study this type of spiritual technique, research in history continues, and of course, there are a number of scientists who associate knowledge about it as a scientific character. , and with its practical application in modern culture. Unfortunately, in domestic literature not enough attention paid to such an ancient and relevant philosophy in the modern world. In the article we set the task to analyze this aspect of multifaceted human life from the standpoint of the modern European researcher. Eastern culture can be viewed in the context of art, religion, mythology, but the question arises: can it be viewed and evaluated in the context of mental, rational discourse? On the basis of ancient texts, on the basis of works of famous Indologists, modern European philosophers, an attempt was made to describe the rationality of yoga and give it a definition. The author goes to the general nature of the rationality of the East, represented by a cosmological-mythological worldview. He concludes that for a man of the East there are other norms and criteria of rationality than for a European-oriented worldview. The author also analyzes the nature of the design thinking of a person with this form of worldview. For a person of the East, there are other norms and criteria for rationality than for a European-oriented worldview. The rationality of the philosophy of yoga should be the basis for research practices and technologies of yoga. It can be given a conditional definition, but its meaning is deep and rooted in hoary antiquity, and requires careful and thorough analysis. The union of all ascetic practices and religious teachings takes place in the Gita, so without analyzing its texts, it is impossible to understand the rationality of yoga. Yoga rationality is mythological and cosmological in nature: it is an a priori scheme of man’s perception of the world and himself, in which ideas about karma and nirvana were central to world orientation and activity, and the mystic of cosmic and biological emphasized the polyvalence of these apriorisms. Such rationality allows the yogi to mentally move from the world of carnal beings into the world of gods and into the world of transcendental gods. The last world appears as an intermediate between the phenomenal world and the non-world of nirvana. Various Indian practices, techniques, and methods aimed at freeing the spirit through separation acquired their followers, because after the “Upanishads” the rejection of life due to socio-political structures and history became the most worthy soteriological solution. Hence the orientation of the yogi to internal self-improvement and indifference to the outside world. Moral decency and cosmic order here are concepts of the same level, starting with the moral positions of the individual soul, which is akin to the spiritual essence of the Cosmos, and Good and Evil act as metaphors for the rhythmic nature of life, both of Cosmos and of Man.

The article considers the process of formation of personality value orientations in practical activities during higher education, identifies the stages of this process, analyzes each stage, offers a theoretical analysis of practical activities for the formation of personality value orientations in the educational process. The phenomenon of culture as a second nature, which is created by man and in turn is its product, constantly brings to life many theories that try to understand the diversity of cultures, to determine the patterns of its development. They explain the features of the cultural-historical process, the role played by art and its integrative part – music, which is a necessary component of knowledge and value understanding of the world around us. The mechanisms of value orientation formed in pedagogy contradict the regulatory activity of teachers, who continue to offer means of mastering the world «in the finished form», which hinders the development of the process of ascent of the individual to the values ​​of life and culture. Practical activity on the formation of personality value orientations in music pedagogy can be defined as the formation of a creative personality, which strives for a holistic understanding of the musical space, occurs in several stages, each of which corresponds to the periodization of the process of personality value orientations. The formation of value orientations of the individual in practice is based on the concept of dialogic communication and is based on the formation of value orientations of the individual in the development of modern music, is built through the use of associative, genre-style and intonation-style approaches. The set of these approaches forms an evolutionary-synergetic method, which treats the object of study music culture – as a self-developing system, and the subject– the emerging personality – as a self-developing and self-tuning system. The formation of the mechanism of orientations is at the same time the formation of the mechanism of self-adjustment, which allows empathy, and this opens the way to co-creation.

In today’s global environment, a myriad of communication mechanisms enable cultures around the world to interact with one another and form complex interrelationships. The goal of this chapter is to illustrate an individual-based approach to understanding cultural similarities and differences in the borderless world. Within the context of Web communication, a typology of individual cultural value orientations is proposed. This conceptualization emphasizes the need for making distinctions first at the individual level, before group-level comparisons are meaningful, in order to grasp the complexity of today’s global culture. The empirical study reported here further demonstrates the usefulness of this approach by successfully identifying 16 groups among American Web users as postulated in the proposed typology. Future research should follow the implications provided in this chapter in order to broaden our thinking about the role of culture in a world of global communication.

The article provides a brief overview of the theoretical field of socio-humanitarian sciences in terms of definition and features of disciplinary approaches to the study of values as a scientific category. The topicality of sociology is established in this discourse, i.e. it is a comprehensive study of values, which involves their analysis in relation to other elements of the social system, taking into account the current social context. Emphasis is placed on the expediency of creating a theoretical and methodological basis for research by combining consistent provisions of structuralism and hermeneutics as well as the use of qualitative methods relevant to non-classical theorizing. The dialectic of the concepts of world and European values is explained, the correctness of the use of the latter is substantiated. The leitmotif of the article is the idea of a direct relationship between the quality of modernization of Ukraine and the speed of transformation of the axiological space of Ukrainians towards the (Western)European model. Therefore, based on the data of the World Values Survey, the tendencies of modification of the modern axio-sphere of the Ukrainian society in accordance with the changes of the European and world value spaces are analyzed. It is emphasized that in Ukraine there is a slow departure from the still dominant traditional values to the values of secularization and self-expression (according to R. Inglehart). It is most obvious in the value orientations of young people as the most progressive and adaptive socio-demographic group of the population. In view of this, the author studied the value orientations of the I. Franko Lviv National University students to check them on the availability of European values, the specifics of the internalization of the latter and the search for subjects who are their repeaters. It has been established that the state of the value space of the respondents can be characterized as one that is basically specified by a dominant tradition, in which the fundamental values of a united Europe are already slowly being internalized. The determinants of this process are the active transformations of the political and economic situation in the country and the world at the macro-level as well as the influences of the closest surroundings, friends, educational courses, travelling at the meso- and micro-level of the social system.

Case studies of well documented, great innovations were performed with focus on their underlying, basic ideas. In retrospect, these ideas may seem obvious, but at the time of conception, they were considered utopian, here defined as imaginative, unexpected, counterintuitive, or unrealistic by most people, including experts. The build-up of the utopian ideas in each of the case studies is shortly described along with a critical analysis about their roles, importance, and risk exposure in the individual cases. The ideas were ranked according to defined criteria of importance, risk, and utopian potential, and this ranking was compared to the ranking of the overall impact of the analyzed innovations. The results suggest that the utopian idea potential correlates with the overall impact. The World Wide Web and the smartphones are prominent examples of great innovations driven by utopian ideas. The significance of these findings is discussed in view of current innovation models and in recognition of the heuristic character of the reported investigation.
