At the time when Ukraine asserted itself in the world cooperation of independent and equal states, the department's scientific research was directed to the search for new ways of solving issues that arose in all spheres of social life. Based on the polyphony of scientific research methods and the pluralism of ideologies, the teachers of the department begin to look for new approaches to solving the current problems of philosophical discourse, research the social and methodological foundations of the existence of man and society, information and communication processes and connections. Special attention is paid to the problem of the identity of the social subject in the information society, which is constantly transforming. As a result of research work at the department, new scientific directions are crystallized and international connections are expanding.

Gradually, the main topics of research are formed in the scientific work of the department, which later became the foundation of the general research work on the topic "Philosophy of the identity of the social subject".

Every year, laboratory employees carry out research work

In 2022, laboratory employees performed two scientific research works within the second half of the teachers' working hours.

One of the areas of work in 2022 was the implementation of two topics within the second half of the teachers' working hours.

In the direction of "Axiosphere in the cultural and communicative dynamics of modern society" the teachers conducted an in-depth analysis of the morphological state of the modern axiosphere thanks to a systemic structural approach to the view of this phenomenon; actual philosophical methods, hermeneutic and phenomenological, are implemented when identifying various manifestations and states of the modern axiosphere in its functional and role dynamics; the priority directions in the scientific and theoretical interpretation became the factors of the socio-cultural direction of modernity, the status of a person in the global conditions of modern society, the analysis of literary sources in relation to the determined directions of research was continued.

According to the direction "Ethos: forms of presence", the peculiarities of the forms of ethos of modernity were outlined, the characteristics of the ethnic map of modern social reality both in the world and in Ukraine were given, an analysis of the forms of the presence of ethos in various forms of social consciousness was carried out (the genesis of Ukrainian self-awareness and the genesis of the ethos of science and engineering ).

The following were carried out on the basis of the laboratory:

- Interuniversity city scientific and practical round table "Philosophical problems of understanding outer space", dedicated to the World Day of Aviation and Cosmonautics (International Day of Human Flight into Space), in which the teachers of the department took part;

- jointly with the National Technical University "Kharkiv Polytechnic Institute" held the Interuniversity city scientific and practical seminar "Philosophy in the axiosphere of the globalizing society", dedicated to the World Day of Philosophy and the 300th anniversary of the birth of Hryhoriy Skovoroda, which was attended by teachers of the department and students of education;

Attention was focused on ideological, moral-legal, religious discursiveness, as well as on scientific, technical and technological dimensions with a priority in the aerospace direction, their impact on human life in historical and modern contexts.

Thanks to the conducted research based on the systematization of factual material and field research, a morphological outline of the modern axiosphere of society is proposed, the activity-existential vector of the human condition in its cultural-communicative practices is presented, as appropriate elements in the value-evaluative hierarchy of the socio-cultural dynamics of modern society.

Significance: the problem field has been significantly enriched and the thematic variety has been expanded in the teaching of lecture courses and practical classes related to the professional direction of education seekers of various levels of education thanks to the development and implementation of relevant methodical tools, widespread connections of teachers with representatives of the scientific and educational community of higher schools with the aim of exchange of results of scientific and practical activities.
