Abstract

In the article, there are indicated the basic features of globalization. The author shows the positive and negative influences of this process on the Russian education. Besides, there are considered the most significant problems in education and the directions of their solving. The main feature of Russia is indicated: geographically it realizes the connection between the West and the East. The author concludes that it is necessary to consider the geopolitical features of Russia in the education system. Modernization of education in our country cannot and should not occur only by acceptance of the standards of the West and submission to it. Studying the system of education of the East is of interest. It is also important to take into account the achievements of the domestic scientific schools.
