Highlights
A human is viewed as a socio-cultural being in any conceptions of society, while culture is a system of values and norms of behavior, socially acquired and transmitted from generation to generation, on the basis of which the life activity of people is organized.In today's world, there is a steady trend towards globalization
Let us move back a thousand years ago, to the expanses from the island of Gotland and circumpolar Bergen to Russian Novgorod, where in the 12th to 17th centuries an outstanding institution of European economic integration of the Middle Ages, the Hanseatic League was located, that united at various times up to 160 cities, a prototype of future European unions with political and economic influence, with an open market and a representative system of leadership
The documents that have survived to this day, covering the establishment and organization of the court, the rules of trade, as well as the rules of criminal law and procedure - trade agreements of the 12th-15th centuries [1], resolutions of the Hanseatic congresses [2], Novgorod's treaties with princes [3], princely statutes, Novgorod scribe books [4], correspondence of the Hanseatic office and merchants [5], Schra collections [6] – all these allow assessing the actual historical experience, and giving it centuries later a new breath at the interstate level of cultural, scientific, and economic contacts. This is evidenced by the large-scale and unique project “Hanseatic cities: restoration of historical ties for modern management in the sphere of culture”, launched in 2010, addressing the history of small cities of Russia and uniting 176 cities from 16 countries within the framework of cultural cooperation “Hansa Novogo Vremeni” (Hanse of the New Time)
Summary
A human is viewed as a socio-cultural being in any conceptions of society, while culture is a system of values and norms of behavior, socially acquired and transmitted from generation to generation, on the basis of which the life activity of people is organized. In today's world, there is a steady trend towards globalization It has a serious impact on the processes of uniting people representing different peoples, religions, countries and continents, be it within the framework of transnational corporations, or in the form of public management processes in various spheres and areas of social development. Under these conditions, the prerequisites are formed that carry the danger of a rapid disappearance of many objects of the intangible cultural heritage, the complete disappearance of many forms of culture important for the self-identification of man, and the methods of general cultural activity. The methodological basis of the work is historical-legal, formal-legal, comparativelegal methods and the method of interpretation of legal norms
