Название: Ukraine under the conditions of the second year of existential war in analysts' reflectionsof the Warsaw centre for eastern studies Авторы: Ilnytskyi, Vasyl; Telvak, Vitalii Краткий осмотр (реферат): The purpose of the article is to elucidate the reflection of the main aspects of the full-scale stage of the Russo-Ukrainian war by analysts of the Marek Karp Centre for Eastern Studies. The research methodology is based on the principles of objectivity, scientificity, systematicity and historicism, as well as the application of an interdisciplinary approach. Structural functional and comparative historical methods have been used. The scientific novelty of the article consists in an attempt to elucidate the current stage coverage of the Russian aggression against Ukraine by analysts of the Marek Karp Centre for Eastern Studies. The Conclusions. Thus, during the second year of the Russo-Ukrainian war, the Marek Karp Centre for Eastern Studies analysts followed all the events (both in foreign and domestic arenas) quite carefully. According to them, the withdrawal of the Armed Forces from Avdiyivka (February 19, 2024) was the symbolic date of the end of the second year of war. In their publications, the analysts focus on combat operations at the front, political processes, socio-economic, information security, environmental, educational, cultural, religious problems, the policy of Western countries regarding war and security in Europe in general. During this year, the chief focus of analysts was on the battles for Bakhmut, the counteroffensive launched by the Armed Forces of Ukraine on June 4, the restoration of the transport corridor through the Black Sea, achieved owing to strikes on the ships of the russian Black Sea Fleet, grain exports, attacks by the Ukrainian drones on military, energy and oil facilities on the territory of the russian federation, Ukraine’s entry into the EU, the signing of security agreements and internal processes within it, etc. At the same time, in their publications, analysts also mention a number of negative factors that directly affected the front – corruption scandals, political competition, which reached its peak with the dismissal of Valery Zaluzhnyi from the post of Commander-in-Chief, etc. In this way, the reader can get a holistic view of the main aspects of the war. Perhaps the main conclusion is the opinion of the director of the Marek Karp Centre for Eastern Studies, Wojciech Kononchuk, that Ukraine needs weapons for defense and victory, and, accordingly, the political will and quick decisions of Western countries.

Название: Higher education reform in Ukraine (2014 - 2022) in the reception of domestic social media Авторы: Puyda, Roman; Dvorianyn, Paraskoviya Краткий осмотр (реферат): The Purpose of the Research. It is important to elucidate the content of the media discourse on the higher education reform in Ukraine, to single out the main topics covered by the Ukrainian mass media, and also to indicate an analytical and evaluative component of the materials on the reforms in higher education. The chronological framework of the study (2014 – 2022) is determined by: a) the end of the Revolution of Dignity and the coming to power of pro-European governments in Ukraine, b) the beginning of Russia’s full-scale war against Ukraine, which suspended the reform process temporarily. The research methodology is based on the principles of scientificity, systematicity, as well as the use of discourse analysis as an interdisciplinary approach to the study on mass media space. The scientific novelty consists in the fact that the directions and substantive aspects of the issues on higher education reform of Ukraine have been elucidated in the discourse of social media (2014 – 2022) for the first time. The Conclusions. Therefore, the reception of the reforms in the field of higher education by the Ukrainian media was concentrated around several aspects that formed the basis of the media discourse in this direction. Firstly, the content of the Law of Ukraine “On Higher Education”, adopted in July of 2014, was covered in detail. In general, the approval of the law was called “the first real reform after the Maidan”, although there were opposing opinions about the creation of “corruption risks”. Secondly, the media discussed the success and failures of the reform, noted such achievements as autonomy of universities, formation of a system for ensuring the quality of higher education, growth of the role of student self-government, and activation of international activities of universities. On the other hand, the mass media noted the failure to solve the problem of scholarship payments and outdated approaches to the state order for the training of specialists with a higher education diploma. Thirdly, the changes introduced in 2016 to the requirements for scientific and pedagogical staff to obtain the scientific titles of Professor and Associate Professor were highlighted. Fourthly, reforms in the field of higher medical education were described, which were related to the strengthening of requirements for the level of training of applicants and students (introduction of a high passing score at admission, testing of students' knowledge using American tests). Fifthly, for some time the mass media discussed the issue of a formulaic principle introduction of funding distribution among universities, introduced by the government resolution at the end of 2019, giving both positive and critical opinions. Sixthly, the Ukrainian media were not sufficiently interested in the work of National Agency for Quality Assurance of Higher Education, focusing only on a number of scandals regarding the formation of its composition.

Название: National minorities participation in public life of Ukraine under the conditions of the russo-ukrainian war (2014 - 2024) Авторы: Novorodovskyi, Valerii; Kulesha, Nadiia Краткий осмотр (реферат): The purpose of the research is to study the peculiarities of the national minorities participation in a public life, in particular, in the political, public, cultural, educational and other spheres under the conditions of the Russo-Ukrainian War, as well as to clarify the possible challenges to the national ethnopolitics during the postwar years. The Methodology of the Research. There have been applied the methods of analogy, comparison, generalization, source analysis, content analysis, systemic and structural functional in the article. The Scientific Novelty. The prospects for the participation of civil society institutions in the processes of the post-war reconstruction have been revealed in detail for the first time, as well as the peculiarities of the social and political activities of public associations of the national minorities under the conditions of the Russo-Ukrainian War. The Conclusions. The ethno-national issue is a crucial component of the state policy. Taking into consideration the experience of the Russo-Ukrainian War, the can state that ignoring the ethno-national issues can cause vulnerability to the external factors and hybrid threats. Despite the lack of systematicity in the implementation of state ethnopolitics, the presence of diverse challenges that induce contradictions in society, the Russian aggression led to consolidation around a civic identity. There are numerous challenges that Ukraine has to face, in particular, for the state authorities, a local self-government and a civil society. During the post-war years, a number of vital issues related to the post-war reconstruction, implementation of reforms, improvement of the national security system, minimization of social contradictions, etc. will intensify. There are challenges to the establishment of relations between state institutions and society as a whole, as well as the development of ethno-national relations in the de-occupied territories.

Название: Pan-Slavic ideas in modern russian political imagination and the war against Ukraine Авторы: Kovalchuk, Nataliia Краткий осмотр (реферат): The Purpose of the Research. Whether the Russian war against Ukraine has been ideologically motivated constitutes a part of a broader discussion of a revanchist turn in Russia’s foreign policy. The period since the dissolution of the Soviet Union witnessed a quest for a new state ideology and the emergence of various forms of modern Russian nationalism. In this context, the Pan-Slavic ideas that spread in academic, quasi-academic, and political spheres in the decades preceding the full-scale invasion deserve particular attention. The Methodology of Research. Critical discourse analysis of speeches, official statements, and media publications was used to detect embedded messages and compare them to sentiments typical of Pan-Slavic doctrine. The Research Novelty. Such an approach allowed to identify particular elements in the Russian official discourse and propaganda dating back to the late imperial times and explain the role of such elements in the ideological justification of the war against Ukraine. Conclusions. The ideas and symbols influencing how the Russian leadership presents themselves on the global stage often draw from characteristics commonly associated with Pan-Slavism. One of the outcomes has been framing the Russia-Ukraine conflict as a battle of civilizations to prevent Ukraine’s westernization and position it as “anti-Russia”. The Russian nationalism emphasizes the unity and strength of the Russian nation, viewing Ukraine as an integral part of a broader Russian identity. This approach has been fueled by a sense of historical injustice and a desire to regain what is recepted as lost influence and territories in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union. Top officials, including Vladimir Putin himself, have consistently employed the isolationist, quasi-Orthodox, and messianic language. As circumstances evolve, they adjust their rhetoric pragmatically, but Pan-Slavic concepts serve as one of the foundations for the growing appeal of civilizational discourse.
