Post non classical methodology is based on the thesis of the problematic nature of operating by entities which were traditionally viewed as a large-scale subject of history and the media of historical sense. They are too abstract to be real actors of history in terms of thinking and acting. The possibility of constructing of the global historical schemes, concepts is determined as doubtful. Some functions of ideological philosophy of history were partially shifted to other areas of social and scientific knowledge, (...) especially in theoretical sociology. The methodology of historical globalization came into being as well as “world-system” theory and historical projection of geopolitical ideas. The main characteristic feature and difference among these theories is the understanding of contemporary global and transnational processes in terms of retro perspectives of 500 years of the world history. The methodology of the historical globalistics turns round the historians from essentially humanitarian knowledge to social sciences. This direction of research occurs under the conditions of actualization of cultural-historical approach and the supremacy the concept of historical relativism. Eurocentric, linear and strictly deterministic concepts of traditional philosophy of history are denied in the article. The theories of cultural anthropology and synergy are prepared together with its methodological tools. Hence socio-historical existence again becomes existentially open to different possibilities.

У статті вказано, що під змістом біосоціальних технологій розуміється не самий по собі субстрат біосоціального, а його внутрішній стан, сукупність процесів, що характеризують взаємодію утворюючих організм людини елементів – астрального, фізичного, духовного, психічного і соціального тіл, між собою і з технологічним середовищем і зумовлюють їхнє буття – функціонування, розвиток і зміну. Автор вказує, що в цьому сенсі зміст формування, збереження, реабілітації і збагачення здоров’я людини, тобто використання технологічного інструментарію, виступає як універсальний і всеохоплюючий процес соціальної реабілітації особи з обмеженнями життєдіяльності (...) або удосконалення цілком здорової людини, що прагне стати ще досконалішою.

Introduction. Integration of knowledge and communications, the movement for open access to knowledge lead to the emergence of factors that update the philosophy of functioning and development of university libraries. There is a need to comprehend the ongoing innovations in the activities of university libraries in the world. Purpose. The study assumes understanding of the substantial changes in the library services for scientists related to Open Access and the new role of university libraries – a partner in the production, preservation (...) and spread of knowledge. Methodology. On the basis of empirical and theoretical methods, the features of modern university libraries are considered. They include shift of the priority vector towards the services for an author-scientist and support of the philosophy of open access to knowledge. The study identifies and analyzes the anthropological aspects of communicative and informational awareness of reality by university researchers and librarians. The realities of modern services for scientists of Ukraine are examined based on the experience of the Scientific and Technical Library of Dnipropetrovsk National University of Railway Transport named after Academician V. Lazaryan. The observations and surveys of scientists, librarians, publishers of scientific periodicals allow analyzing the anthropological aspects concerning new digital library services. The aspects affect: 1) relationship between communicants; 2) explanations of why it is the authors-researchers who have been at the center of the attention of libraries, why they are provided with exactly these services and exactly in this way; 3) levels of impact of new services on both scientists and librarians. Originality. It is established that in the process of communicative and informational awareness of reality, there are changes in the dimension of scientists and university librarians, namely, the ways of their behaviour and the communicative features associated with the development of Open Access and the new role of university libraries as partners in the production, preservation and spread of knowledge. Conclusions. The leading role of university libraries in the implementation of digital initiatives of scientific communication, based on free access to knowledge, leads to changes: 1) in the dimension of scientists and librarians, namely, the ways of their behavior and communicative features; 2) in the emotional, psychological, physical states of librarians as intermediaries between two conflicting requirements – ensuring stability in the activities of the library and the need for changes in the services it provides.

Обсуждается тезис феминистской философии науки о том, что классическая наука – это маскулинное предприятие. Предложена интерпретация этой оценки как ключевой метафоры, которая может быть использована для описания классической науки. Показано, что маскулинность является характеристикой не только классической науки, но и образа науки – совокупности представлений о природе, сущности и месте науки в человеческом бытии. Гендерные особенности философского образа классической науки выявляются на материале анализа языковых средств описания науки у Ф. Бэкона.
