². ²ntroduction. In the modern day of the information world personology is an imperative for social partnership, which is a measure of wisdom of Ukrainians. This comprehensive social phenomenon provides a civilized, effective regulation of the dynamics of human relationships, helps counteract speculative manipulation of consciousness and quality solution of social conflicts. In this direction a contribution to the separation distinguishing features of Ukrainian national character and its historical sources was made by Nikolai Gogol, M. Kostomarov, I. Nechuy-Levitsky, P. Drahomanov, I. Franco, E. Malanyuk.

In their spiritual reflections one can see the whole spectrum of emotional and evaluative judgments and thoughts about the nature of wisdom of Ukrainians – from the romantic ideal of the Cossack love for freedom, original for thinkers of the first half of the nineteenth century and the most holistic reflected in the work of M. Kostomarov [1], [2] to wrathful invectives of I. Franko and E. Malaniuk. This Ukrainian personalism brought historical disasters and failures statehood and cultural development. In modern studies that spiritual capital is represented in numerous research programs and applied techniques.

²². Statement of the Problem. In our view, the most important thing today is the fact that a man in modern society has learned to live independently. The subtend of the social space has developed in modern man the illusion of naturalness of the social as it gave rise to a sense of “freedom from society”, sharply criticized the classics of Marxism on the eve post industry. This postmodern is affected by the spirit of the time in the manifestation of intense social and environmental problems of the new type that is disputable by content. This particular spiritual condition is inherent for educators from different eras. In this case, it is worth to resort to semantic notation of post-modernity for the purpose of upgrading the awareness of multi-dimensional approaches, and in practical social – co-existence of heterogeneous elements. This makes it possible to combine in the minds plurality and contrast of relevant components and to interpret modernization as a continuous process of creating a new world.

²²². The Results. Herewith, the old forms of personality are defined in the minds in certain concepts, social rituals and persistent emotional reactions. Their modernization significantly alters the social landscape, sometimes beyond recognition. Therefore, new forms of identity, which, according to elementary logic, appear in place of the old, do not have a clear shape and even definitions. Essential is that the modern information world lives not just in terms of the destruction of old institutions, but also in terms of the rise of new ones. One of these new institutions in personology is the person as an personality-creator of new time, “in the psychological and philosophical (and possibly biological) design which are “built-in” basic “units” of modern social organization – communicative, political, economic and cultural [3, p. 104].

Modern American culture theorist F. Riff considers modal types of people - carriers of different cultures. The scientist assigns an important place to “psychologizators” in modern society, with reliance on the rational component of knowledge. At present there is a certain reduction of the impenitence degree of life world of the individual in the social organism. Weakening of rigid determination of individual strategies by “external” factors of institutions, rules, priority of public good. Therefore, in the crisis was such a viable creative force that protects human staff – the morality, family, state, ideology, science and art.

Thus, if the primitive tribes in classical antiquity expulsion from the community (pack, tribe, polis) was equivalent to execution, if in a traditional society man without family was seen as inadequate and suspicious, today it is stated the transition to individual residence, distant marital relationship, full economic autonomy of each entity. Therefore, a person has the time, energy and resources in order to create some families, get career development, change the appearance and style of life several times. This model is reproduced by mass culture, is cultivated so-called exemplary individuals – representatives of public – elitist groups (showbiz, film industry, the media, sports).

Given the urgency of this problem and the prospects for practical applications , it is rational to trace preconditions of evolution and structural and functional features of the concept of social partnership in personology. Altogether, it is assumed that one of the first works on the topics of searching social harmony was a treatise of J- J. Rousseau “On the Social Contract or Principles of Political Rights”.  In this work, published in 1762 , was described “civil , and therefore – civilized society”, based on the laws we are all equal before, which provide personal liberty of every citizen [4, p. 234].

A. Marshall paid special attention to issues of cooperation between labor and capital. In his opinion “social motives interact with economic: it is often observed a close friendship between employers and workers, and neither party is inclined to believe that in the event an unpleasant incident arises between them they must conflict, both parties wish to retain the possibility to painlessly break old ties when they become unpleasant” [5, p. 256].

Some elements of the processes of “cooperation of labor and capital” can be seen for the Ukrainians. As the history testifies, the emergence of social insurance in our country takes place in the 90-th of the nineteenth century: in 1899 started the Odessa partnership for mutual insurance of manufacturers and craftsmen from accidents to their employees. In 1903 based on the experience of Odessa and to prevent conflicts with those whose “... income depends on the advance of labor by capital” [5, p. 259] was adopted the law on the aid for workers and employees who were victims of industrial accidents. It is noted that the law laid the foundation not only of introducing the practice of insurance of employees in case of injury and illness, but it also became the first example of a successful national search for taking into account relevant proposals by the subjects work. Only in 1917, in connection with a change of government and the civil war, this type of insurance ceased existence. But it was partly renewed in 1921 under the NEP conditions (was valid until 1933) [6, p. 23].

Another strong impetus to the expansion of social partnership became the depressed spirit of time of the 1930s, in which the global crisis was starting, and World War II. Depression, in particular, highlighted the inadequacy of existing unemployment insurance programs, and those that had acquired some experience in this field, began to consider the possibility of improving them or including them in programs of public welfare.

This was the path to prosperity “the German Way”. In France the main objective of this policy was defined as the spread of solidarity. It is no accident then it is French strategy that has proven its viability and eventually started dominated in the concepts of the EU states [7, p. 357].

The social and philosophical criteria found their reflection in the concept of social partnership which appeared after the Second World War. In foreign literature it is categorically stated that no coincidence that at this very time appeared the term “social security”. U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt was the first who introduced the term in circulation in 1934. As a result, almost all Western European countries began to improve their social adjustment, in spite of the difference between pre- and post-war period they had less than that in the UK. It was carried out by Belgium, France, Ireland, Italy, Norway and Yugoslavia. For example, the German model of social policy is formed on the ideas of Alexander Bismarck , provided a close connection of the social insurance and active labor market initiatives of employers and economic processes. This was the path to prosperity of “German type”. In France the main objective of this policy was defined as the spread of solidarity. It is not accidental that then it was French strategy that  has proven its viability and eventually became dominated by the concepts of the EU.

According to M. Rozumny, social crisis is much clearer and brighter “grasped” at the mass communication level – “manipulator appeals to social memory and social attention ... frequent use of such technologies (and they accompany practically every national election campaign leads to exhaustion of the emotional psychological community basis which gather one-time electoral harvest ...” [11, p. 98]. In other words, as language policy operates not only among politicians, but also, more generally, in social partnership (interpersonal relations), entering the mass media channels and is deprived of lexical signs closed concepts – purely political terms.

In this case, approval of post-modernization is associated with changes taking place in the world in the last quarter of the twentieth century. First of all, in the leading Western countries. These changes are associated with the transition from an industrial society with the dominant type of its instrumental rationality value. These changes of civilization periods and cycles essentially influence the basic characteristics of human life that is important for social partnership. Indeed, a significant part of the transitional phase of social transformation from an industrial (modern) to the post-industrial (post-modern) society humanity has been lived in highly-developed Western countries. In other words, in its transformation modern society gradually ceased to be the antithesis of the traditional type of society, aims to find innovative partnerships.

Overcoming the crisis of post-Soviet personality of a man who not only in Russia but also in Ukraine is still trying to find a shelter in a virtual world, impossible to reproduce the idealized mass society, according to Ukrainian philosopher Vladimir Gorsky, is extremely difficult, but not an impossible task, which lies “Collaborating with globalized “we” to keep their own sense of identity, their personal “I” [8, ñ. 220].

Under these conditions are inevitable crises and turmoil in some countries, entire regions and on the global scale. Scientists do not exclude the possibility of self-destruction of human civilization. Everything depends on whether the post-industrial civilization is able without dispersing its efforts “to involve in the contemporary processes of social production and reproduction, the accumulation of wealth and its distribution throughout the world,” that will be the basis for a more active spiritual life of people, will open new possibilities for the formation of new human values and humanity [9, p. 322].

In our opinion, mankind and all living things on the planet, is inherent to strive for survival, which leaves hope for existence in future. Because survival as a phenomenon of life and death is the realization of abilities and creativity, bio-stimulators of certain feelings and desires (reasonable freedom). Survival as a determined characteristic of impetuous directed to the wise preservation of life. Optimization of the subject of survival is manifested as optimizing behavior and social activities.

In his essay “Franz Kafka” Walter Benjamin reveals the philosophy of life and death as a construct of artistic culture , namely: expressive episode from the memoirs of Max Broad , an episode from the memoirs of Max Broad, an episode which he saw as a throw-over bridge to the Kafka world of art, very similar (when it cast an eye in passing) to those medieval literary Bestiary, which old fans allegorically – symbolic statements allegedly described the animals , but actually moralized about people in the form of sly foxes, lions, strong, clumsy bears, defenseless mice etc. Kafka’s bestiary is much more colorful, and its semantics is not mythical. Although the relevant experts to some extent declare Kafka’s mythology searching it parallels in antiquity, and sometimes even in ancient Hindu metempsychosis. In the Kafka’s Bestiary is epically fused various animal and insect diversity with human beings, because given the moral dimension, human beings lose human traits, and to some extent resemble certain animals, insects, wild plants without any mythical, symbolic, allegorical or metaphorical transfer become a reality in the form of such creatures [10, ñ. 126].

Because the individual interprets social discomfort by the parameters that are suggested by mass communication. This is the specificity of the information technology society, not all of which have the utopian – progressive character, the apologists say about. In our opinion, for a confused and disoriented person who has lost a sense of inner balance (homeostasis) as a result of the depressed state of mind, there are simple answers and questions. Basic patterns of social organization lays in the identification of “us” and “them” as dialectical relationship between the personal unrealized identity and socio-cultural uncertainty is obvious. In addition, the modern movement of personal success in the Ukrainian version is opposed to the illusory hope to solve one at the expense of another. The challenge is that the personal success grew into collective, and eventually into a nationwide. The ‘political technologies are designed primarily for the preparation and adoption and implementation of policy decisions, achieving appropriate social significant result” [12 , p. 22] as being “Ukrainian” – the government should be to Ukrainian centrist . “... Only parties that practice traditional spiritual values are based on healthy, viable nationalism” [13, p. 5].

Under these circumstances it is irrational (emotional and sensory) awareness of personal skills that play a significant role in the wise organization of intelligence. In our opinion, evaluation and improvement of “emotional intelligence” should be the functions of every social organization. In the development of social career “emotional intelligence” should be one of the main criteria, especially for top managers. 

P. Solovey and J. Mayer were the first who proposed his theory of emotional intelligence in 1990. At the core of this model is the concept of emotional intelligence, which at a general level includes the ability to understand and regulate emotions personal and other people. Its structure consists of the following main elements: understanding of themselves, self-regulation, social understanding, management of relationship.

Thus, for example, skills of successful sales and conflict management are based on the emotional intelligence, and especially of its elements, such as social awareness and relationship management. These abilities are not sufficient in order to become well-rounded professional, as a separate person cannot be a specialist in geometry, with no time-spatial abilities. However, there are many people with such abilities, who studied geometry only at school. The same way a person can understand the feelings and empathize with others, but does not succeed in sales techniques without special skills.

IV. Conclusions. Consequently, emotional intelligence reflects the potential of the respective person in acquiring practical skills for wise activities in social partnership. Therefore, Ukrainians face a wise problem: how to develop a methodological basis of the program and methodology, which can efficiently evaluate, identify, develop and refine emotional skills. In the philosophy of management one can find a lot of theories and approaches, methods and principles that enable proper plan, analyze and predict. In real life, a significant role should be played “human capabilities” located between the mind and the heart, that is, between cognitive and emotional abilities. These skills integrate the thoughts and feelings and are shown as “emotional intelligence”. At the same time the style of social partnership has to be conformist in order to resolve any conflict in which management style is constant in certain situations, but while changing the situation it is possible to carry out adaptation or change of style. All this makes reflection for necessary awareness on the ways of stimulation and uniting personal efforts in the social partnership in the main direction towards the realization of basic goals and objectives.
