Abstract


The article provides a socio-philosophical analysis of the ways in which discursive and political-ideological practices in education involve social actors in state-building processes in a world of new opportunities. The sociocultural mechanisms of transferring the experience of previous generations' national achievements to the educational process and social practices of their active descendants in the form of procedural changes and innovative educational tools in the process of political socialisation of future citizens of a sovereign state were analysed. Effective ways of complying with and monitoring modern international legal norms for the protection of human rights and freedoms in the field of education have been identified, as well as opportunities for equal access for every sovereign individual to the intellectual achievements of a globalised society at all levels of the educational process. The situation has been analysed separately, confirming the opinion that the overwhelming majority of representatives of the scientific community recognise the fact that the peaceful policy of dialogue is undergoing a socio-political crisis and requires new methods of comprehensive correlation of international collective interaction for the sake of a single planetary dialogue.
The main provisions of the conclusion state the following: firstly, that the discourse position of political education culture characterises the ideological beliefs, ideas of social development, and value aspects of everyday social practices that prevailed in the state during a specific period of civilisational progress; secondly, the educational aspect of political and legal education influences the civic position of young people, shapes the forms of their social activity, and establishes the status of a basic foundation for the process of political socialisation of an active personality in the relevant system of state building. The following research opinions have been proven: 1) the phenomenon of socialisation includes value orientations, political beliefs and civic positions of actors, performs a stabilising function of continuous interaction between generations and social groups of a historically formed structure of social relations; 2) ensures the current civilisational level of scientific knowledge development, which is objectively uniform for the general education process in all countries of the modern political map of the world; 3) traditional channels for transmitting the worldview framework of the socialisation process usually relate to idealised notions of state power and a positive image of the rules governing social relations, and are no longer able to counteract the growing influence of the systematic improvement in the educational level of today's youth; 4) the process of cognitive acquisition of knowledge and critical thinking skills by a highly educated specialist has been shown to stimulate the process of self-actualisation of his natural qualities and it has been defined as fundamental basis of intellectual activity, as the idea of openness of social space to the latest innovative approaches with an emphasis on effective results.
