The Future of the Educational Landscapes in the Era of Hybrid War: Philosophy of Hybrid Management and Digital Resilience

Abstract

The article is devoted to the philosophical understanding of the reconfiguration of educational landscapes in Ukraine in the conditions of full-scale invasion and hybrid war. The authors diagnose the ontological crisis of the traditional university, caused by the destruction of physical infrastructure and the forced migration of participants in the educational process. It has been proven that the loss of “place” (topos) necessitates a transition to new forms of rooting in the digital space, which is transformed from a technical environment into a space of existential stability. The methodological basis of the study is a synthesis of philosophical reflection and case study. Using the case of the YouTube channel “Educational Landscapes” (@edu_land), the phenomenon of “digital shelter” is analyzed. As a result of the study, the concept of “hybrid management” is substantiated ‒ a management philosophy that combines institutional verticality with network flexibility in order to preserve academic social responsibility. The authors argue that the digital reconstruction of the educational landscape is critical for protecting democratic values and national identity from the totalitarian narratives of the aggressor. The proposed model is seen as a universal resilience strategy for global education in an era of turbulence.
