Everyday Interaction

For members of society, cyberspace has become an indispensable scene of their communication and everyday interaction, thus contributing to the emergence and functioning of the global information society. Depending on the stage of their lives in which the members of each generation have encountered ICT tools, different qualities, skills, abilities and expectations can be observed in them. The members of the Y, the Z, and now the alpha generation have a completely different set of values and adaptability than their predecessors. From the point of view of the national security services, it is important to examine the main characteristics of these generations and social groups, since among other things, the newly recruited members of the national security services are members of society. In order to ensure the operation of effective national security services based on traditional values, knowledge and age specifics, it is necessary to optimize recruitment systems that meet the needs of the next generation and are able to attract their attention and measure their suitability. The aim of this publication is to identify the main groups of challenges and to formulate possible solutions that can support the efficiency of both selection and recruitment activities for each national security service.

The article raises the role of the minority national language within a global information society. The Hebrew language is a unique case of the revival of a classic language. In the early twentieth century a project was carried out to establish a technical university in what was then called Palestine The founders preferred to teach in Gem an, the dominant international scientific language technology. They daimed that Hebrew was unsuitable for scientific discourse. The opposition succeeded in defeating the founders and thus guaranteed the use of Hebrew in the fields of science and technology. The changing relationships and tension between the local language and the international lingua franca is still subject to debate today and the events of the so-called language war have much to teach us.

The article notes the relevance of the problem of the correlation of traditional values with national security issues, defines the concept of "traditional values", the main approaches to identifying the essence and content of this concept. the traditional values of Russians are considered from the point of view of ensuring the national security of the country. There are such unique characteristics of the Russian people as community, nepotism, the priority of the ideal over the material. The abovementioned values and ideals are common — universal and acceptable to all — and echo the ideals of the Soviet period. However, now there is not a return to the values of socialism, which, by the way, also called for justice, equality, stability, but a gradual prioritization of the basic spiritual values in the consciousness of the people, regardless of the socio-economic model, since they are the backbone of the social system of society. Through the defi nition of traditional values and an objective assessment of the modern spiritual and moral state of society, the author builds a scheme for achieving the unity of the peoples of Russia as the basis of national security. In this regard, he comes to the conclusion that only the appeal of Russians to the history and traditions of their state, taking into account primarily national interests, can contribute to neutralization of internal and external threats to the individual, society and the state within the framework of the national security system of Russia, as well as preventing the negative influence of Western values and cultural expression in general. At the same time, official documents of the Russian Federation are used as arguments, as well as the speech of President V. Putin at the Valdai Forum on October 21 this year.

The theme of illegitimacy Guy de Maupassant evolved in his works this article perceives as one of the factors of the author’s concept of a person and the plane of intersection of the most typical motifs of his short stories. The study of the author’s concept of a person through the prism of polivariability of the motif of a bastard is relevant in today’s revision of traditional values, transformation of the usual social institutions and search for identities, etc. The purpose of the study is to give a definition to the existence specifics of the bastard motif in the Maupassant’s short stories by using historical and literary, comparative, structural methods of analysis as dominant. To do this, I analyze the content, variability and the role of this motive in the formation of the Maupassant’s concept of a person, the author’s innovations in its interpretation from the point of view of literary diachrony. Maupassant interprets the bastard motif in the social, psychological and metaphorical-symbolic sense. For the short stories with the presentation of this motif, I suggest the typology based on the role of it in the structure of the work and the ideological and thematic content: the short stories with a motif-fragment, the ones with the bastard’s leitmotif and the group where the bastard motif becomes a central theme. The Maupassant’s interpretation of the bastard motif combines the general tendencies of its existence in the world’s literary tradition and individual reading. The latter is the result of the author’s understanding of the relevant for the era issues: the transformation of the family model, the interest in the theory of heredity, the strengthening of atheistic sentiments, the growth of frustration in the system of traditional social and moral values etc. This study sets the ground for a prospective analysis of the evolution the bastard motif in the short-story collections of different years or a comparative study of the motif in short stories and novels by Maupassant.

Proverbs are important data depicting the traditional culture of each nation. Vietnamese proverbs, dated thousands of years ago, are an immense valuable treasure of experience which the Vietnamese people desire to pass to the younger generations. This paper aims to explore the unique and diversified world of intelligence and spirits of the Vietnamese through a condensed and special literary genre, as well as a traditional value of the nation (Nguyen Xuan Kinh 2013, Tran Ngoc Them 1996, Le Chi Que and Ngo Thi Thanh Quy 2014). Through an interdisciplinary approach, from an anthropological point of view, approaching proverbs we will open up a vast treasure of knowledge and culture of all Vietnamese generations. The study has examined over 16,000 Vietnamese proverbs and analysed three groups expressing Vietnamese people’s behaviors toward nature, society and their selves, and compared them with English and Japanese proverbs. The research has attempted to explore the beauty of Vietnamese language, cultural values and the souls and personalities of Vietnam. Approaching Vietnamese proverbs under the interdisciplinary perspective of language, culture and literature is a new research direction in the field of Social Sciences and Humanity in Vietnam. From these viewpoints, it is seen that proverbs have remarkably contributed to the language and culture of Vietnam as well as and constructed to the practice of language use in everyday life which is imaginary, meaningful and effective in communication. Furthermore, the study seeks to inspire the Vietnamese youth’s pride in national identity and to encourage their preservation and promotion for traditional values of the nation in the context of integration and globalisation. In the meantime, it would be favourable to introduce and market the beauty of Vietnamese language, culture and people to the world, encouraging the speakers of other languages to study, explore and understand Vietnam.
