The aim is to bring the concept of perception of the Chernobyl accident and the "exclusion zone" as "cultural trauma" and "places of memory" in the background of Ukrainian national history. It was achieved by applying the methods of analysis and synthesis of the ideas of the "new history" and principles of "implantation" Chernobyl discourse in the process of inculturation of modern Ukrainian culture. Scientific novelty. The growing interest in the historical past, promoting access the modified concepts historicizing and collective memory phenomenon contributed to a broader discussion of the impact of "Chernobyl situation" in the post-Soviet identity in the region, the impact of the release of the fact of the accident on the formation of social consciousness and thus the political representation of the past, forming interactions' communication between ethnic memory and "traumatic" legacy of the communist era. The disappearance of the "Soviet bloc" has given new impetus to the interest of researchers the Postchernobyl info shock as a mass phenomenon radiophobia that approved the legality of a finding rethinking the Chernobyl accident as "cultural trauma" of Ukrainian history. Obviously, it is the relationship of philosophical and historical knowledge in matters of understanding of the Chernobyl accident was a priority for the process of the formation of a unique semiotically-mental "Chernobyl space" of recently opened for socio-philosophical interpretation, which in itself raises the possibility of "Chernobyl discourse." In addition, problems caused by modern research tasks of national revival Ukraine, which provides the philosophical understanding of history; Ukraine crisis continual coexistence of Chernobyl "exclusion zone" as an image "place of memory"; unique historical and cultural experience gained Ukrainian people as a result of the Chernobyl accident. Conclusion. The author made an overview of concepts "places of memory", "commemoralization" and "cultural trauma"; have suggested the possibility of further studies of the Chernobyl accident and the "exclusion zone" as a separate phenomenon socia-cultural Ukrainian culture. |
