Current issues of social sciences and history of medicine, Sep 2025

The article states that against the backdrop of Russia’s large-scale invasion of Ukraine, the problem of patriotic education of youth arises. The purpose of the article is to confirm the thesis that it is patriotism and the national-linguistic consciousness of Ukrainians, as its integral component, that will help to realize the national idea. Material. Scientific and educational-methodological works on the national idea, national identity, patriotism, linguistic consciousness and patriotic education of the younger generation in educational institutions. Conclusions. Patriotism is a reliable immunity from the root causes (patience, lethargy, indecision, etc.) of all the problems of Ukrainians. It must be educated, starting with the family, preschool institutions and ending with universities, where they should take care of filling the educational process with patriotic content, first of all, instilling in the younger generation love and respect for their native language as the basis of national culture and statehood. After all, the restoration of borders and the post-war reconstruction of the Ukrainian state, the affirmation of its identity in the geopolitical dimension, require true patriots who are ready to care about its image, work for its good, prosperity and development even in temporarily unfavorable conditions

Галина Навчук, Ігор Навчук, Діана Собко. Патріотична підготовка нового покоління українців в аспекті сьогодення. У статті йдеться про те, що на тлі широкомасштабного вторгнення росії на територію України постає проблема патріотичного виховання молоді. Мета статті – утвердити тезу про те, що саме патріотизм і національно- мовна свідомість українців, як його невід’ємна складова, допоможуть реалізувати національну ідею. Матеріал. Наукові та навчально-методичні праці про національну ідею, національну ідентичність, патріотизм, мовну свідомість і патріотичне виховання молодого покоління у закладах освіти. Висновки. Патріотизм є надійним імунітетом від першопричин (терплячості, млявості, нерішучості й ін.) усіх проблем українців. Виховувати його потрібно, починаючи з сім’ї, дошкільних установ і завершуючи вишами, де мають дбати про наповнення навчально-виховного процесу патріотичним змістом, насамперед прищеплювати молодому поколінню любов і повагу до рідної мови як основи національної культури й державотворення. Адже для відновлення кордонів і повоєнної відбудови Української держави, утвердження її ідентичності в геополітичному вимірі потрібні справжні патріоти, готові дбати про її імідж, працювати на її благо, процвітання й розвиток навіть у тимчасово несприятливих умовах. Ключові слова: мова, патріотизм, національна ідея, національно-мовна свідомість, національно-культурна ідентичність, геополітична ідентичність. The problem is stated in general terms and its connection with important scientific or practical tasks. Against the background of global changes, aggravation of socio- political, national- cultural and socio- economic problems, revision and rethinking of worldview orientations caused by Russia’s armed aggression against Ukraine, problems arise of preserving the territorial integrity and national identity of Ukrainians, their patriotic upbringing, spiritual maturity, linguistic consciousness, purpose and meaning of life, etc. Martial law and ineffective reform have forced millions of Ukrainians to migrate abroad, which has led to a situation where the best personnel, specialists that Ukraine needs, are leaving its territory, perhaps forever. The processes of their linguistic and cultural integration, assimilation and denationalization, the loss of historical memory in this situation are predictable. As is well known, a denationalized individual can never become a true patriot of the Ukrainian state, one who is ready to work for its benefit, prosperity, and development, even under temporarily unfavorable conditions. The situation can be changed if every citizen begins to realize their personal responsibility for what is happening in the country, becomes an active participant in its socio-political life, and makes thoughtful choices in situations of expressing their will. In turn, elected officials and state leadership must ensure the protection of citizens’ rights and freedoms, care for their social welfare, and demonstrate that human capital is indeed the nation’s greatest value. Otherwise, the crisis will only grow, and the national idea will lose its meaning 1. The occupation of a significant portion of Ukrainian territory by an aggressor and the global dispersion of its citizens have brought to the forefront the urgent need to consolidate Ukrainian society around the national idea – the preservation of the integrity and independence of Ukraine, its national- linguistic and geopolitical identity, etc. The restoration of borders and the further development of a democratic and legal Ukrainian state, the establishment of its sovereignty and subjectivity, and socio- economic progress are impossible without true patriots who care about the fate of their country and the future of their descendants. In this context, scholars are actively discussing the thesis that the young generation represents a reliable foundation for the socio-political, cultural-historical, and socio- economic development of the nation. Therefore, national and patriotic education of youth must be a priority Navchuk H.V., Navchuk I. V., Sobko D. I.

Analysis of recent research and publications. The problems of the factors of consolidation of Ukrainians, their patriotic upbringing, cultural and national identity, the status of the Ukrainian language and its role in the socio- cultural context were covered by well-known Ukrainian linguists (N. Babych, M. Vivcharyk, I. Dzyuba, S. Yermolenko, M. Zhulynsky, O. Kosovych, L. Masenko, A. Pogribnyi, O. Tkachenko, etc.), and historians (V. Vasylenko, Ya. Kalakura, etc.), and foreign researchers, however, they are still relevant and require in-depth study in the context of national resistance to the large- scale Russian invasion of the territory of our sovereign state, as well as European integration processes. The purpose of the article is to confirm the thesis that it is patriotism and the national-linguistic consciousness of Ukrainians, as its integral component, that will help to realize the national idea, form a stable immunity from the «old and new diseases» of our society and testify to the spiritual maturity of the nation.
