Abstract

The article is devoted to understanding the essence of Ukrainian integral nationalism based on the political philosophy of Dmytro Dontsov. It was determined that the appeal to nationalism as a worldview and ideological phenomenon, a reflection of the worldview attitudes of certain social groups, is valuable in this plane, which is manifested in the awareness of a certain social community as a total integrity and the opposition of this integrity to other social integrity similar to it in form. It was revealed that Ukrainian nationalism as a kind of socio-cultural direction of nationalist ideology is a reflection of the entire political and historical path of Ukrainianism. Also, the fundamental work is shown, which became to a certain extent the gospel for the young generation of Ukrainian patriots. In this thorough work, Dontsov resolutely condemns the "Dragomanians" and "Provencals". Analyzing the reasons for the defeat of our liberation struggles, he exposes the demobilizing, disarming chatter of "friends of the people" about "love for Slavic brothers", about "democracy-socialism", and subjects them to devastating reasoned criticism. It has been established that Dmytro Dontsov's political philosophy, known as "integral nationalism", had a huge impact on Ukrainian history of the 20th century. It was the basis of the ideology of the OUN, it remains the ideological basis of many right-wing parties and groups of the political spectrum of modern Ukraine. The relevance of D. Dontsov's works and philosophy is argued, his philosophy of integral nationalism is important today precisely because it calls for struggle. It has been proven that D. Dontsov is a bright representative of the Ukrainian school of nationalist ideology, having undergone a worldview genesis from a thinker of a socialist orientation to a thinker with a clearly defined nationalist orientation with an attribute in the form of a qualitative negation of leftist ideologies. His worldview position is an apperceptive expression of certain social groups that aspired to the independence of Ukraine, regardless of the means by which this independence would be achieved. Dontsov emphasizes the role of the city of Kyiv as a powerful imprint for the revival of the Ukrainian national elite. The thinker focuses on Kyiv's historical past as the basis for building a qualitatively new construct of the Ukrainian national idea. Dontsov consistently defended the idea of Ukraine's independence. Therefore, the relevance of D. Dontsov's ideas in the formation of a new wave of the national elite lies in the modern plane of national traditions of Ukraine.
