Modeling of the Modern Humanistic Pedagogics in Educational Sociology

Abstract

Social, economic, political events taking place in the country on the cusp of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries and, as their consequence, the processes of reappraisal of values have faced the education system with new challenges – fundamental changed the psychological attitude and culturological and worldview orientations of citizens. The resulting deficit of humanization, on the one hand, revealed the need of nurturing a new competitive educated generation, and on the other hand, of ensuring the formation of humanism as the main value of social behavior of a citizen. Based on this fact, the main task was to identify mechanisms promoting the development of humanism in the rising generation and the transfer of education of the highest standards to them against the background of the information society challenges and the growing dehumanization of modern society, which is an indispensable condition for the socialization of the younger generation and its active and harmonious involvement into social life.

The education space of the country has faced new challenges. The government declared the primacy of the principles of humanism, and preparation of a humane new generation for a noble society was declared as the goal of education. The above-mentioned processes have led us to a deficit of humanism. Methods and technologies built on the laws, principles and methodological foundations of pedagogy, achieved success in their activities in periods of establishment of politically and economically, morally organized society. The Renaissance era is the best example of this. Thus, sociology and, in particular, the sociology of education (pedagogical experience plays a great role in creation of its principles) faced bigger responsibility. And this responsibility, in our earnest conviction, should develop in cooperation with pedagogical science. So, this article, which is a modest effort to analyze the results of scientific-sociological-pedagogical research conducted with the purpose of scientifically substantiation of modeling of modern humanistic pedagogy and education sociology, is an attempt to demonstrate exactly this fact.
