Abstract

Introduction. The formulation of the existence problem of the Russian idea in modern education is explored. Monitoring is carried out on the basis of a comparative analysis of secular (state) and religious education, with a general assessment of Russian and Western socio-cultural traditions. Methodology. The dialectical method, systemic and sociocultural approaches were used when considering the dynamics of educational processes from the modern era to the present day. Discussion. According to the authors of the article, the philosophy of the Russian world and the potential of the Russian idea in modern education are mainly related to the essence and strategy of a solidarity/social state, in which it is possible to establish a healthy balance of people’s lives in nature and society. The meaning and essence of the Russian idea is reflected in the concepts and practice of forming a whole person in his development and self-development. The main meanings in education are the versatile preparation of the individual in the following aspects: a person for society; a man for the family; man for himself; society for man, man in harmony with nature. When implementing these meaningful life values of the Russian idea in modern pedagogical activity, it turns out to be the most adequate and promising. The statement of the problem consists in a deep study of the philosophy of the Russian idea for the organization of modern education. Several levels of general knowledge are emphasized: general philosophical ontological, methodological and epistemological, philosophical-anthropological, social-philosophical, ethical-axiological and psychological-pedagogical (in theoretical and activity aspects). Conclusion. Turning to the heritage of Russian philosophy, we can conclude that the “Russian idea” is an empirically revealed form of existence of the national spirit, phenomenologically manifested in the intellectual activity of the educated majority of the nation in the form of a set of ideal ideas about the past, present and future of education.
