It is showed, that the «noospherical economy» allows reconsidering the industrialism and post-industrialism, which cultivate the material wants and their satisfaction, provided by mass production of corresponding goods. Noospherism connects intellect (science), moral motivations and industry. Thereby not industrial benefit or profitability, but the man, his potential and morality comes out on top. The noospherical model is based at mind principles, scientific achievements of nations, freedom of science, equal relations between races and peoples. So it has the strong humanistic potential and perspectives of realization in the XXI century.

Abstract
Presented article describes the structure of Weltanschauung of the intelligentsia in Belarus and Russia during the period from second part of nineteenth to the middle of twentieth century. It has been shown there that genesis of the «intelligentsias being» was always based on the antagonism between creative subject and his surrounding social reality. This antagonism would be realized in the transformation of social and organization structures of society. Intellectual's cognition tries to overcome these structures. Regardless of their political views and philosophical positions a number of thinkers intends to complete with society by their importance. A genius tries to show his equitable and self-dependence. In contrast to religion the intellectual creates his ideal by himself to come to believe in it finally.

Abstract
Article deals with the problem of Jewish youth organizations in the Soviet Belarus. During the 1920th the development of Jewish youth organizations took place on two fronts: the Communist and Zionist. Jewish Communist Youth League until 1923 was a real competitor with Komsomol among Jewish boys and girls. Zionist youth organization in the Soviet Belarus has been divided into three groups: the right, educational, cultural, and left. Zionist youth organization and other smaller groups have been related to the right groups. Gashomer-Gatsair, Getover, Hehalutz, Makkabi have been related to educational and cultural ones. The Jewish Socialist Working Youth Union «Jugend Poalei Zion», Zionist-Socialist Union of Youth and Tseirey Zion have been related to the left group. In the first half of 1920th the largest Jewish youth organization was Hehalutz, but in the second half it was the Zionist-Socialist Union of Youth. Soviet authorities used various methods of dealing with the Zionists (from advocacy to repressive). However, the Young Communist League of the Soviet Belarus was able to deploy an effective struggle against Zionism only in the late 1920th. Due to the stronger response to the Soviet authorities and to improve the economic situation Jewish boys and girls began to fall under the influence of youth Zionist organizations since the end of 1926. Then the collapse of their local structures has begun. Zionist groups organized by youth have been eliminated to the end of 1929.

Abstract
This article is devoted to theoretical and methodological problems of making a dictionary of the living Belarusian language in the 20th years of twentieth century in comparison with the most important Russian, Polish, Czech, Serbian and Ukrainian dictionaries.

Publications of regulations and programs, preparation of regional dictionaries, field collection of dictionary materials by forces of the literate part of population of the Republic have been elucidated, too. Also theoretical foundations of the dictionary based on the Belarusian living language encompassed territorial boundaries of ethnographic Belarus have been shown. They are chronologically limited to the second half of nineteenth century and the first quarter of the twentieth century. The goal of the dictionary was to show the lexical richness of the Belarusian language, stylistically processed vernacular, introducing a significant part of specialized vocabulary. Thereby it proves the uniqueness of the Belarusian language and extracts tokens from artistic, journalistic and professional literature. This extraction had a critical nature. So the usage labels have been not introduced into the entries in contrast to the mandatory examples from literature and compulsory linguistic passports. At the same time the criteria for inclusion into the dictionary of loan words, neologisms and special vocabulary were rather vague.

Abstract
The most notable obstacle to the evolution of artificial intelligence is not as much the lack of technical equipment of computers as many of their «inability» to take into account the context and cultural features of human communications. Computer-mediated communications create a new environment of the discourse, peculiar both technically and humanitarian, in particular, linguistic aspects. Issues of structuring and systematization of the content and form of the «big data» that are stored in the virtual dimension require adaptation of major achievements from the humanitarian sphere to new communication circumstances. The obvious and requested resource in this context is the knowledge on the correlation of language components and culture qualities. An artificial intelligence is now unable autonomous from person to pose and solve problems. So its presence in the field of communications is due to already established by laws of the cultural environment. Thus, computer-mediated communications would be carried out according to the rules of human culture, the essence of which is the language.
