  The main problem raised in the paper is in line with a new trend of research, conceptual programs and practical activity that can be termed “hygiene of culture”. The study is transcritical in its character and proposes to consider the category of capital generated by the economy in relation to the reproduction of the population in its structural units of civilization and as a cultural community. Trans-discipline methodology is currently being developed, which makes the work is up-to-date. It develops basic aspects of the procreation capital category, which claims to be a generalization of the human capital category. The problem is the restoration of European culture, which has been eroded by the distortion of the ideas of market economy. The reason why it is particularly urgent to find a solution to the problem is the threat posed by the demographic situation of the developed countries of European culture and the adjacent countries of the Slavic-Orthodox cultural cluster by the actual organization of housing.

  This study proposes a formal-analytical reading of Ivan Ikić’s Oaza (Oasis) (2020) within an interdisciplinary framework combining film theory and Noam Chomsky’s Minimalist Program. Drawing on core Minimalist concepts – such as the distinction between Phonological Form (PF) and Logical Form (LF), economy of derivation, and the copy theory of movement – the article argues that cinematic silence in Oaza is not absence, but a structurally licensed form of non-externalization. In this sense, silence functions analogously to syntactic traces: elements that lack phonological realization yet remain interpretively active. Focusing on the interrogation scene and the final sequence of the film, the analysis demonstrates how the suspension of speech and the restriction of expressive means shift interpretive responsibility onto the viewer. Meaning emerges not through explicit articulation, but through structured absence and constrained access. The film thus operates as a derivational system in which omission is not a deficit but a condition of interpretation, governed by principles of economy and interface interaction.

  The paper defines new perspectives of the study of cultural industries by the humanities. Cultural, philosophical and socioeconomic theories of the last century, which have entered our active academic life, are considered as the basic points of departure. The author considers the problem of humans and those cultural changes which contribute to the harmonization of ontological, axiological and aesthetic bases of  their existence in modern society.
