Globalization Of Education

The world experience of civilizational development of the most advanced countries of the world testifies to the crucial role of the educational sphere in the formation of the whole sociocultural complex – modernization of production, improvement of social relations, science and culture, ensuring sustainable development of society, entry of industrial countries into the stage of post-industrial information society. Educational systems have always focused on the needs of society and, despite the known conservatism, responded to the changes. The concept of “globalization of education” means the process of entry of the educational system into the European Higher Education Area and standardization of requirements: comparability of degrees, a single system of credit points, academic mobility and assessment of the quality of education. The globalized world is an open world, but not an equal one. New challenges in the system of human preparation for life are not least due to socio-cultural dynamics, which is constantly accelerating under the pressure of globalization and the information revolution. Therefore, today it is important to know the main vectors of globalization and informatization not only on the development of modern society in general but also on the development of its education system in particular. The social stratification of states deepens faster than material, financial, intellectual, human resources and talents are pumped out of backward countries.

Conventionally defined, “global commodities” refer to raw materials and basic foodstuffs—sugar, bananas, cotton, coal, bauxite—that are extracted or grown in one area of the world and sold on the world market for industrial or consumer use elsewhere. Labor historians focusing on the point of extraction/production or tracking the production and circulation of specific global commodities have gained insight into the development of global capitalism, in particular relations between colonized and colonizer, developing countries and advanced industrial countries. From Sidney Mintz's Sweetness and Power: The Place of Sugar in Modern History (1986) to Mark Kurlansky's Cod: The Biography of the Fish that Changed the World (1998) scholars and general readers alike have found in studies of a single commodity a productive method for understanding social relations in the making of the modern world.

The article deals with the development of the theory of post-industrial society’s social stratification. Today it is difficult to present stratification research in the form of a harmonious ordered sequence. The social stratification theory of the famous French sociologist Alain Touraine does not fit any of the usual classical directions. He revises economic determinism and puts accents on the sphere of knowledge and culture. Touraine tries to overcome the long-standing traditions of structuralism through the analysis of social action and social relations when analyzing the social stratification system. The modern «programmable society» is characterized by departure from the economic struggle and economic decisions, which have lost the autonomy and the central place that they used to have in the previous societies. Touraine’s vision of the modern society’s social structure differs from the vision of other post-industrialism theorists, especially from the ideas of American sociology, in particular, those presented in D. Bell’s works. The author of the action theory focuses on the French model of society and takes into account the historical and cultural characteristics of its development. Touraine noted the significant changes which occurred in the stratification system of modern society and the nature of its main social conflict. It is the change in the power and the forms of social domination under the influence of new factors and social processes. The French sociologist made a significant contribution to the fact that the sociological explanation of the modern social stratification system is transformed. He described the main characteristics of the post-industrial society’s class structure, the main trends of its development, offered the ways of using some categories necessary for the description of the modern post-industrial society’s stratification system.

In this article we attempt to envision what utopian higher education could be given the realities that currently shape students’ experiences. Postsecondary education is fraught with admissions that favor those with social, cultural, and economic capital; with course enrollment, class size, and instructor accessibility governed by bureaucratic labyrinths and austerity measures; and with major and career selection constrained by looming student debt. As higher education perpetually reproduces social stratification and increasingly mimics corporate practices, it is imperative to ask who and what higher education is for. Why do we continue to engage in it? Are there ways to salvage it from within, or does it require demolishing, clearing the rubble, and building from scratch? Can a utopian version of higher education exist at all if wider social relations endure? Using speculative fiction, this piece grapples with re-envisioning higher education as students’ daily lives, and the world at large, remain within the confines of capitalist realism.

Modern Myth

The myth in the modern sociocultural space bears an important cultural and social burden, has many forms and manifestations and is used by modern man consciously and with specific goals. The influence of mythology on modern society is ambiguous. An example is the illusory picture of the world produced by Russian television series intended for a female audience. The low quality of these products and the unified standard of the plot based on the archetypical images of the characters, are capable of playing on the psyche of viewers susceptible to the offered illusions, on the one hand, comforting, on the other - leading away from real life. The fact of the existence of myth in the modern cultural space, its relevance in the world of social relations proves the reality of the existence and functioning of mythological thinking.

New Industrialization

In modern conditions, the global problems facing humanity have moved from the space of theoretical discussions to the space of practical issues that require imme­diate solutions at the level of individual countries and the world community as a whole. These changes are associated with a new technological revolution in so­cial production, which is being discussed today not only by theoretical scientists, but also by chief business practitioners and political leaders of the most influential countries of the world. Fundamental alterations are also taking place in the social stratification of society. The article discusses the theory, which can explain the so­cial system arising in the course of these transformations – Noonomy conception, created by Sergey D. Bodrunov. An analysis of its constituents is presented, as well as contingent ways to attain this state of social system, including formation of the second-generation New Industrial Society (NIS.2), socialization of the so­cial life, the new industrialization, based on the integration of science, education and manufacture. Reflecting on Bodrunov’s works, author gives an account of his own thoughts about possible future scenarios, with challenges, that may appear before mankind in close perspective, among those. The paper is a proposal to dis­cuss problems concerned with global transformation of modern society, which were emphasized by the Noonomy theory creator.

Exiting socialism by almost a third of the earth population appears to be the most prominent event of the late XX century. The author makes an attempt to formulate some challenges of this process and thus a theory of exiting socialism. First, he inquires into the concept of exiting socialism as it exists in the world. Then he analyzes real experiences in this field. The research enables the author to outline the main economic, governmental and social challenges of such exit - from municipal economy to science and culture.

The Dialogical concept of consciousness in L.S. Vygotsky and G.H. Mead and its relevance for contemporary discussions on consciousness In my paper I show the relevance of cultural-activity theory for solving the puzzles of the concept of consciousness which encounter contemporary philosophy. I reconstruct the main categories of cultural-activity theory as developed by M.M. Bakhtin, L.S. Vygotsky, G.H. Mead, and J. Dewey. For the concept of consciousness the most important thing is that the phenomenon of human consciousness is consider to be an effect of intersection of language, social relations, and activity. Therefore consciousness cannot be reduced to merely sensual experience but it has to be treated as a complex process in which experience is converted into language expressions which in turn are used for establishing interpersonal relationships. Consciousness thus can be accounted for by its reference to objectivity of social relationships rather than to the world of physical or biological phenomena.
