Abstract

There are considered in the article the philosophical foundations of studying life activity in the context of social upbringing. The author thinks that the most important thing in understanding the nature and mechanisms of social education is to consider the scope of usage of the “life activity” term in the concept of social upbringing (A. V. Mudrik). Examination of the current practice of using this term yields three major variants: the individual life activity, the life activity of the social group, the collective life activity of the educational organization. This leads to a possibility of drawing the following scheme: the essence of social upbringing–reproduction of individual life and the life of social groups, and the mechanism of social upbringing– multi-factorial influence of the collective life activity of the educational organization.
