The Most Complicated of Russian Educational Problems

Abstract

The author of this article regards dehumanization of the Russian community as one of the results of an allround crisis in humanitarian education, with its outdated content and instruments. Neither the education community nor academic institutions, nor cultural activists, nor authorities have attempted a radical solution of that problem ever since the communist regime collapsed. As the author insists, it takes a federal target program involving the educational network, mass media, cultural institutions and publishers to adapt humanitarian education to new goals. It is up to the young and efficient personnel to implement the project.
