SOCIETAL RESPONSIBILITY AND ITS INFLUENCE ON RE-SPONSIBILITY IN DIFFERENT SPHERES OF HUMAN ACTIVITY Abstract. The article examines social responsibility differentiated towards various re-sponsibility objects, depending on human activity sphere and social level. The au-thor concentrates on human responsibility, which is called societal responsibility, for the state of things in a country. The purpose of the article is to determine the influence of human societal responsibility level on responsibility in various spheres of his activity. Through analyzing the empiric research data the links be-tween individual responsibility levels were found, the zones of relative autonomy were distinguished where societal responsibility is minimal and rather high. The author raises the problem of irresponsibility syndrome internal deter-mination: what is basic in constructing responsibility/ irresponsibility – social es-capism or isolationism, when a person doesn’t consider important to be responsible for a society, general personality set connected with the values orientation or feeling of social vacuum around her, when a person doesn’t feel her mutual re-sponsibility and believes that she is surrounded by mostly irresponsible people. The mentioned problems are studied on the material of empiric research, made in Zaporozhye in 2013 (the selection is representative – 700 people were ques-tioned). Answer information on the questions about private responsibility and evaluation of others responsibility proves definitely that a man perceiving and de-fining his milieu as mostly irresponsible, i.e. deprived of sociality individualists rejects himself to be responsible for a society. Individualized society or a society of individuals suggests that a person who considers herself an independent perso-nality perceives others also as individual personalities who don’t care about so-ciety and state destiny. Therefore he doesn’t take responsibility for the order in a country. Further analysis shows that irresponsibility syndrome mostly touches upon societal level. As regards the sphere of close social surrounding, close to a person social environment and direct activity, set on moral isolationism is less strong. Societal irresponsibility is connected with irresponsibility about close so-cial surrounding, but this second level of irresponsibility is revealed less dis-tinctly. The syndrome of social irresponsibility implies that people who don’t consider themselves to have the right to take responsibility for state of things in a country at the same time possess low indicators of subjective responsibility refer-ring to other aspects of sociality and their existence world. Considering responsibility/ irresponsibility in social discourse allows un-veiling additional aspects of human and society feature. The data of empiric re-search proved that levels of responsibility are interconnected. Key words: responsibility, social responsibility, societal responsibility, so-ciality, levels of sociality.

THE STUDY OF YOUTH EXTREMISM AS A COMPONENT OF HUMANITARIAN SCIENCE OF CRISIS Abstract. The authors continue to develop the idea of the demand for modern meta-science and philosophy of the social sciences, which they call hu-manitarian crisis science. They think such meta-science is based on dialectical-triplectical methodology and cultural and temporal approach. The paper shows the need for the study of youth extremism as a part of the humanitarian crisis science as the opposition of theory and practice of modern extremism. It is also proposed to classify the study of youth extremism as part of the theory of infor-mation security. Key words: humanitarian crisis science, the study of youth extremism, cul-tural and temporal approach, information security, network warfare.
