Abstract: This article aims to analyze the manifestation of the universal axiological cultural category of sinfulness in the media space. The study's subject was this category's properties and functions, which are actualized when represented in digital media. In accordance with this goal, we used such methods as continuous sampling and observation of the facts of the representation of cultural categories, which allowed us to determine the linguistic material for analysis and a statistical method for quantitative analysis. The content analysis of the units selected for the study was used to identify the role, properties, and main functions of the universal axiological category of sinfulness. The novelty of the research lies in the fact that, for the first time, the universal nature of the category of sinfulness, its functions and properties, represented in media publications, were considered. Main conclusions: the study of the facts of actualization of the category of sinfulness in the media space allowed us to assert that the phenomenon under study is associated with topics such as politics, crime (in news media), and the assessment of citizens' behavior and morality (in religious media). These facts indicate that the primary function of the category of sinfulness is regulatory, aimed at evaluating and correcting the actions of members of society, as well as creating public opinion. In addition, the article proves that the category of sinfulness has transcultural properties, penetrating and being realized in all cultural layers, from local to global. In these cultural layers, the nature of the category acquires a different shade. In particular, at the global level, the category of sinfulness acquires the meaning of guilt, which is a consequence of the significant influence of Western culture on the global culture. It seems that the revealed properties of the category indicate its high importance for modern Russian society. The established regulatory function will make it possible to apply this category, including within the framework of regulating and managing public opinion and promoting basic values.

Abstract: In the era of global digitalization, interfaces have become an essential part of social and cultural life, defining the interaction between the individual and the collective. The subject of this article is to analyze the relationship between interface design and socio-ethical aspects of society. The research focuses on how interfaces reflect and shape social norms and ethical values, influencing the processes of self-identification and social integration in the context of global digitalization. Special attention is given to the mechanisms through which interfaces contribute to the formation of personal and collective identity, as well as how they participate in cultivating cultural identities and ensuring accessibility and inclusivity in the digital space. The main goal of the research is to analyze the role of interfaces in the process of forming personal and collective identity, and their impact on the socio-ethical aspects of public life. The research methodology is based on an interdisciplinary approach, combining elements of social philosophy, cultural studies, and design analysis. Qualitative methods, including theoretical literature analysis and case studies, are used to investigate the influence of interfaces on social processes. The study highlights that interfaces facilitate social integration and cultural exchange, influencing socio-cultural identities and norms. Interface design, with its accessibility and inclusiveness, is crucial for social justice and ethical standards in the digital realm. It underscores the importance of ethical considerations in interface development, which significantly affects technology-society interaction and impacts social and cultural dynamics. The research advocates exploring interfaces' social and ethical implications in the digital era, suggesting new academic and practical research directions.

Abstract: This article is dedicated to the relevant question of modern civilization – the interpersonal communication. The problem of interrelationship of “I” and “You” acquired its philosophical understanding in European philosophy of the early XX century. However, the philosophical heritage of Russian thinkers remained unclaimed until present day. The doctrine of the Russian philosopher Semyon Lyudvigovich Frank was one of the original versions for resolving the problem of correlation between the single personality and spiritual integrity of the society. The article reveals the philosophical-methodological value of the category of “us”, conducts analysis of various layers of social life, as well as demonstrates the antinomic nature of interrelationship between “I”, “you”, and “us”. The authors also determine the differences between the external and internal layers of social relations, reveal the ethical meaning of social interaction, and provide philosophical analysis of the ambivalence of communication alongside the multiplicity of types of the highlighted by S. L. Frank types of human communication. The work applies axiological analysis that allows identifying the value peculiarities of the Russian philosopher upon the key factors of the problem of communication. The authors underline the crucial differences between the European and Russian traditions of analysis of the problem of communication, and note that there is a need for the integral and extensive philosophical examination of such complicated phenomenon, which will consider the synthesis of a distinct Western and Eastern experience of the analysis of problem of communication, as well as the imperative specificity of achievements of the Russian philosophy of communication that are relevant and require further research.

Abstract:   In the context of difficulties, which faces the historical-philosophical research and teaching in post-Soviet situation, this article poses – based in the notion of “event” – the problem  of the “modern” philosophy, “paradigm” that in one or another way continue today, but takes its origins in the past. In this regard, the author’s thesis states that the modern philosophy has two main active-historical “beginnings” – one in the XIX century, the other one in the XX century, to the analysis of which this article is dedicated. Methodologically, this research is based on the multiple Western European (primarily German) historical-philosophical works, as well as is oriented upon the certain philosophical directions of the XX century (especially philosophical hermeneutics), which allows having a significantly new perspective upon modernity alongside the past of the philosophy. The conducted analysis establishes the moments of conceptual continuity of the modern philosophical thoughts, which to the present time finds itself inside the two revolutions in the way of thinking: one such “transformation in thinking” leads from the late Schelling, through Marx, Kierkegaard, and other opponent of Hegel in 1840’s, to Nietzsche and Dilthey; and the other transformation in thinking is associated with even more radical “revolt of a philosopher against philosophy”, namely against identification of the being and thinking and attempts (of Husserl, Heidegger, and other thinkers of the shift in philosophical-humanitarian paradigm in the 1910-1920’s) to have a new perception of the initiate problem of the “first philosophy” in the XX century.

Abstract: This article analyzes the arguments by means of which the Western European philosophers of the XIX century explained the qualitative asymmetry between the pain and pleasure. The anatomical and physiological confirmation of the existence of such asymmetry was acquired only in the XX century: pain represents an independent type of reception with a separate system of conductors and receptors (nociceptors); however, there is no specialized conductors and receptors of pleasure. Thus, the discovery of the qualitative asymmetry of pain and please represents a notable case of the successful philosophical “foresight”. The general philosophical interest contain the following question: why the success was achieved specifically in this area, and why it never gained the due recognition. As the examples of various approaches, the author considers the philosophies of pain and pleasure suggested by A. Schopenhauer, S. Freud, E. von Hartmann, and F. Nietzsche; as well as analyzes their arguments in confirmation of the asymmetry of pain and pleasure, source of doubts and theoretical controversies, and suggests formalization using the mathematical symbolics. The author proves that the recognition of the qualitative asymmetry of pain and pleasure was hindered by the linguistic obstacle – the circumstance, which states that in European languages, the pain and pleasure are the symmetric directions of single modality. This lead to multiple theoretical regressions and controversies in the views of A. Schopenhauer, S. Freud, E. von Hartmann, and F. Nietzsche upon the qualitative asymmetry of pain and pleasure. And therefore, the major philosophical discovery did not gain the due assessment.

Abstract: The subject of the research is the information program of formation of new epistemology. The author of the article examines the major ability of consciousness to generate not only the knowledge necessary in ordinary practice, but also to create epistemological structures which are necessary for all spiritual cultural and social practices. It is underlined that the information approach is growing more and more important in modern natural sciences and humanities. Especially important role is played by the term 'information' in a set of cognitive disciplines such as neurology, cognitive psychology, sociology and theories of artificial intellect forming a scientific basis of new epistemology. In his research Yakovlev has used the method of the conceptual structure reconstruction from Plato's Symposium as well as the method of critical analysis of modern epistemological concepts. The author provides the level-by-level analysis of scientific development in terms of its historical, institutional and personal aspects. The novelty of the research is determined by the following statements. First of all, the author describes the structure of a new (innovative) epistemology that is based on the information and communication approach to cognition. The author has also revealed the semantic structure of innovative epistemology as the transition of novatoin into innovation which is proves to be true by concrete episodes of formation of new programs in modern physics and cosmology. The author also touches upon isomorphism of communicative and information innovative processes of genesis and statement in science and culture and activity of scientific communities as well as research practice of individual scientists.

Abstract: The article in detail analyzes the most significant conceptions of transcendent interpersonal relations in social studies and philosophy. The author of the article describes peculiarities of naturalistic and metaphysical approaches to the problem of interpersonal communication. Based upon Hegel’s idea about the three basic stages of development of human self-consciousness, the author suggests to view the meaning of culture from the point of view of its developing from the desiring consciousness (Me-Not Me) to the accepting consciousness (Me-You, general communicative mind) to the universal consciousness (transcendent communication). Such a process of development would represent a step by step ascension of the humanity in general and every human in particular, to their transcendent essence.

Abstract: Review: Martin (Mordechai) Buber (1878-1965) is one of the most interesting and mysterious philosophers of the 20th century. It is very difficult to describe his creative work as just ‘I-It’ and ‘I-You’ relationships. However, most of the modern philosophers tend to see him as the creator of a Judaic version of religious existentialism which is also called ‘dialogical theology’

Abstract: It is currently considered that the method of functioning of the human mind is similar to the functioning of the computer. That is why computer models can reflect the way of human thinking as a whole, as information-based phenomenon. How reasonable is it? What do we miss out, if we accept this position? And what are the other means to understand the human mind and make our understanding more adequate?
