Abstract

The problem of safety culture is considered in the scientific-philosophical and philosophical-educational aspects, in education and in the life of social actors in the changing and increasingly complex environment of the XXI century. From the standpoint of philosophy of education the attention is drawn to the following questions: specificity of safety culture in the context of globalization; relationship betweenthe general world outlook and safety culture; promoting the culture of safety; analysis of the culture of life safety as a subject in the system of school and higher education. There are presented the specifics of safety culture and its role in the rapidly changing and globalizing world. The relationship between the complex social, technological and man-made changes in the aspect of the problem of safety culture is demonstrated. There is revealed the basic content of safety culture as a particular practically important knowledge, its ideological and cultural-philosophical importance, organic connection with education and philosophy of education. There are shown the levels of safety culture: for the individual person, for the group and organization, for the country as a whole. There is substantiated the importance of formation ofthe safety-oriented individual and social consciousness of social actors at the state level. There is revealed an organic connection of safety culture with education at various levels (school and higher education). There are identified the place and role of philosophy of education in understanding the importance of the problems of safety culture: 1) as a philosophical knowledge; 2) as an educational discipline; 3) as a conscious practical activity with the strategically safe content. In the first position there are revealed: a) the diversity of knowledge related to safety, mainly the professionally oriented one; the need is shown to integrate this knowledge into a universal cultural-philosophical unit of the culture of ensuring safety of social actors, man-made objects and man-made landscapes; b) the conceptual framework of the subject. In the second and third positions there are analyzed the role and place of safety culture in education. Safety culture is a general-educational, general-cultural, world-outlook and praxeological discipline about the foundations of safety of life of individuals, communities in the country, the entire state, the principles of safe behavior in common situations of risk, hazards, disasters, their prevention, overcoming, recovery of safe life; all in all it is an intellectual, knowledge-based, will-related and practice-oriented training of the subjects in the course of their upbringing and training at various levels of education.
