The article examines the phenomenon of non-institutional Ukrainian philosophy of the 60-80s of the twentieth century and the existence of a conflict between it and the official Soviet ideology. In Ukraine at the beginning of the XXI century, there is a tendency to attribute the beginning of Ukrainian philosophy to about the 90s of the last century. This is incorrect for many reasons, in particular: 1) already in the 20s of the twentieth century. Ukrainian professional philosophy existed as a completely independent and quite original phenomenon; 2) institutional philosophy in Ukraine after the mid-50's is actively revived and reaches a serious level, often commensurate with European and world philosophical thought of the time in general; 3) in the country after the "Khrushchev thaw" there is an interesting phenomenon - non-institutional philosophy, which presents a conflict with both institutionalized professional philosophy and the official Soviet ideology, which brings its representatives to new frontiers of thought, which failed to rise to official representatives philosophy due to caution or inability to rise to such a level of philosophizing. Non-institutional philosophy in Ukraine often reached the level of dissent, manifesting itself through samizdat and foreign publications. The main conflict of non-institutional philosophy in the USSR at that time was with the state Soviet ideology and propaganda. It is concluded that the Ukrainian philosophy of the period 1960-80s developed in two directions: as an institutional and as a non-institutional philosophy. Non-institutional non-academic philosophy is characterized by the richness and diversity of individual pursuits of a number of prominent representatives of Ukrainian culture and is an original and integral part of modern Ukrainian philosophy, deserving of attention and special research.
