Everydayness of Peace and War

Abstract

The article examines everydayness as an integrative sphere of society, which is dominant for a person since it
is at the micro level that an individual forms his or her social reality. Dialectical relationships between the individual and
the general can be traced in everydayness, a semantic content is formed, which makes it possible to understand what
happens every day in the everyday life of a person. Therefore, everyday life acts as one of the mechanisms of formation
of values, socialization and a source of formation of social capital at the micro-, meso-, and macro levels.
On the basis of empirical data, it is shown that social capital accumulates in the everyday sphere, which is strong and
can withstand external aggressive manifestations, such as Russia’s war against Ukraine. Ukrainian society can
withstand full-scale military aggression due to solidarity ties, dense network communications, and social trust at the level
of horizontal relationships. In this way, everyday life has a latent effect on the functioning of social institutions at the level
of the city and the state which are the field of implementation of people's everyday routines
