Culture and Education: Value Orientations and Prospective Trends

Abstract

The task of modern education is to ensure an acquisition of ‘skills and knowledge for the XXIth century’. This article explores a highly relevant issue of finding a way out of a crisis that has engulfed the Russian education. We envision the crisis of contemporary education as a crisis of values. The author reflects on the conditions required to establish new modes of education and the challenges we need to embrace. One of the possible solutions lies in the rethinking of the role of humanities education in general and culturological education in particular.
