The processes of globalization expand the diversity of the available range of civilizations and cultures, information range on the whole. On one hand, this is a great benefit and advantage. However, there is erosion of the basic concepts and priorities. There is the problem of preserving the underlying principles and provisions of culture, cultural capital of the country. The problem of maintaining social cohesion and continuity of society is considered. The education system is one of the key social institutions that provide social and cultural stability of society. Translation of values related to regulatory, ethical sphere of society is social and professional function of education system. Legitimate and well-functioning education system is a necessary condition and prerequisite for the social stability of the state. The education and educational activities require a license from the state. The conditions under which the right to educational activity is given are standardized. State control of the education system cannot be transferred to another body. Institutionally organized education and socialization are designed to ensure that new generations enter smoothly into society and the ideological reproduction of the society. Social conditionality of the processes of education and socialization is confirmed by the fact of the expansion of the education system and the inclusion of the population in most modern societies.
