CULTURE. EDUCATION. PERSONALITY: METHODOLOGICAL AND WORLDVIEW POTENTIAL OF PEDAGOGICAL CULTUROLOGY

Abstract

Summary. The purpose of the article is a complex analysis of a relatively new theoretical and applied paradigm of knowledge – pedagogical culturology – in the context of the general structure of culturology as a science consisting of two wings: social and philosophical. Methodological principles of the study are positivism, critical theory, phenomenology, hermeneutics, philosophy of dialogue and universal ethics. Scientific novelty. The goal (inculturation), structure (socio-philosophical, rational-emotional) and dual subject of pedagogical culturology are established: educational dimensions of culture and cultural dimensions of education through the prism of the human problem and its place in the general process of translation of values. There is a difference between pedagogical culturology and culturology of education in terms of content (education) and character (translation of values). There are three subject areas of pedagogical culturology: subject, culture and education – reflected in its three main methodological sources: philosophical anthropology, culturology, pedagogy. The author of the article finds that from social culturology pedagogical culturology inherited the focus on criticism, positivism, phenomenology, rationality, collectivism and socialization inherent in the “” who cognitively learns about culture. Philosophical culturology brings to the pedagogical discourse the universalism, hermeneutics, tradition of dialog, emotionality, individualism, and inculturation inherent in the “intellectual” who axiologically experiences cultural meanings. The unity of sociality and philosophical studies is reflected in the unity of subjective and objective forms of culture and in the unity of thought and action, theory and practice in education. Conclusions. The main ideological and methodological feature of pedagogical culturology is heterochrony in the representation of culture – the comparison in time of unique true events, making it possible to form a person as a universal ethical subject capable of critical thinking, dialogue, cultural creativity. Pedagogical culturology captures the essence of culture as education and education as culture. Culture is a worldview, the inner content and the end product of education. Education is a form of cultural realization, the main function of which is the translational function as a basis for the accumulation and interaction of cultural values.
