Cultural reproduction in the education system: balance of traditions and innovations in the new digital reality

Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of existing approaches to the reproduction of culture in the education system. At present, the problems of cultural reproduction in the education system are of particular relevance due to the accelerating pace of changes in society. Unification of cultures and way of life leads to the threat of loss of traditional values along with the acquisition of new ones. In such conditions, one of the main guarantors of the traditions preservation, that is, the reproduction of traditional cultural values remains the education system. At the same time, the rapid change in the educational space associated with the digital revolution is causing changes in the role of educational institutions as a translator of traditions. All these factors actualize the development of a new approach to the reproduction of culture and its research. The object of the research is cultural reproduction in the education system; the subject of the research is the features of cultural reproduction in the education system in modern conditions. The purpose of the study is to identify possible approaches to the reproduction of cultural values in modern conditions. The research objectives are to study the main approaches to cultural reproduction in the educational system; to identify contradictions between existing approaches and the reality of the modern educational space; to determine the relevance of developing a new approach to the reproduction of culture in the educational system. Synergetic and diachronic approaches are the methodological basis of the study and allow us to analyze the processes of culture change over time. General scientific methods (theoretical analysis, systematization, generalization, analysis of sources on the topic) made it possible to identify the development of methodological approaches to the study of cultural reproduction and put forward a position on the need to develop a new approach. Having analyzed the existing methodological approaches to the study of the reproduction of culture in the education system and having studied the problem of the loss of traditional cultural values, the author proposes the development of a new approach based on the reproduction of cultural heritage in the education system in the new digital reality
