The sitting aim was to discuss the problem of civic responsibility of intelligentsia in the context of “The Ukrainian Charter of a Free Human”. The basic trends of the discussion were as follows: identity and modernization of contemporary Ukrainian intelligentsia: intelligentsia/intellectuals; tolerance in the context of historical memory; ides competition vs dictate of authorities in the choice of the future; legitimation of ethical virtues vs depreciation of moral priorities in the society; intelligentsia and authorities: demand for the critical discourse in transition society. In particular, the report made by Oleksandr Bilokobylskyi was concentrated on professional responsibility of intellectuals; Volodymyr Biletskyi elucidated place of Ukrainian intellectual community in the world context; Mykola Tyshchenko emphasized that intelligentsia is always in a natural opposition to authorities.
