ПРОБЛЕМА ДУХОВНОГО ЕДИНЕНИЯ СЛАВЯН В УСЛОВИЯХ ГЛОБАЛИЗАЦИИ

Abstract

The article reveals the relevance of ethnic identity. This problem has become urgent since the beginning of the XIX century as the result of industrial revolution of the XVIII-XIX centuries, which led to the process of globalization. This process enhances the interdependence of social actors. The complexity of the problem is associated with the need to awaken the Slavic spirit, which is young in comparison with the Western European peoples. Historical youth has exacerbated in the context of Slavic culture the reflection of the worldview transformation, consisting in the need to overcome the mechanical paradigm through the development of the organic worldview. Empirical evidence of this reflection came through the holding of Slavic congresses in the XIX – early XX centuries. The special irritation in the western press was caused by the Slavic Congress of 1867 in Moscow scientifically-based on the All-Russia Ethnographic Exhibition. It reflected a transition to non-classical type of rationality related to the development of anthropology. The globalization of human activity has revealed the need to change the mechanical paradigm to the organic one, leading to the transition from the contemplative to the activity type of worldview. This is an axiological aspect of paradigm transition. These processes are reflected adequately in the Russian organicism, which is the conceptual basis of historical need for development of national consciousness through the spiritual unity of the Slavs in the context of organic worldview. Cultural events of the XIX century show that the problem of mutual misunderstanding between Russia and Western European countries has a long history. In this regard, the spiritual and intellectual experience of Russian organicism is relevant. It justifies the significance of the individuality of any social subject for preserving life on Earth. This individuality is rooted in his spirit. In this regard, the task of preserving the young Slavic culture and individuality of the Slavic peoples is significant for overcoming the outdated mechanical paradigm.
