ETHNOSOCIAL MEMORY AS A FORM OF PRESERVATION AND TRANSMISSION OF NATIONAL CUSTOMS AND TRADITIONS

Abstract

What is the most difficult controversial question that many philosophers are considering in our difficult times? The central problem of philosophy is man who today feels "small," insecure, underdeveloped, and sometimes aggressive. Philosophy has paid great attention to the conditions of material life in society. Morality is not an abstract form, but a real story of living people, the real man himself is an actor, and a spectator of the whole historical process. The urgent task of philosophy is to develop and create a foundation that has played a huge role in the functioning and development of society. Today the ethnic memory of a nation, traditions and customs are the layer due to which the state has a support, and as we know without the support of the past there can be no future. Traditions and customs regulated and organized the life of society not allowing them to go beyond reasonableness and expediency, providing the most efficient and economic conditions of cohabitation and regulation of disputable issues. They were both a lesson that was easily, and quickly learned and a powerful means of educating people; in fact, they were the rigorous school of life in which everyone was evaluated in the form of their own destiny. This topic is not much studied, and requires further thorough research.
