Abstract
It is shown that the paradox of opposite conclusions from the same empirical information about the value orientations of students is expressed in the eclectic combination of the principles of alternative paradigms. The main direction of the transformation of the value orientations of students is characterized by antisocial orientation. The value attitude to work is reduced to two types: the terminal (life-meaning) and the instrumental (as a means to achieve other goals) ones. The massive rejection of the instrumental attitude toward work in favor of the terminal one is a controversial process, which constitutes an entire historical epoch. As a result of the transformational socio-economic processes in Russia, there are taking place large-scale changes in the minds of students.
