Modern Kazakhstani society, like the whole world, is in a state of acute civilizational tension, in alarming conditions of the absence of traditional stability and sustainability, an unprecedented increase in the factor of uncertainty, unpredictability in the political, economic, social and spiritual fields. This is an obvious and indisputable fact. Yesterday's picture of social life has lost its effectiveness and relevance. We are facing new serious global challenges of our time, as stated by the program documents of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Head of State Kassym-Jomart Tokayev spoke about the need to search for a new paradigm of social action in his Address to the people of Kazakhstan (September 1, 2020, March 16, 2022). Modern Kazakh society is in a situation of a potentially dangerous political situation, in the process of searching for new security structures, new economic routes to the global market, new strategies for the development of the social sphere, education, and new spiritual guidelines. The situation is extremely aggravated by the current dangerous military clash between Russia and Ukraine, which has become a heavy burden and test for the entire civilized world and, first of all, for the Kazakh society, historically closely connected with the Russian one. Geographically, the territory of Kazakhstan is located between Western and Eastern civilizations, at the crossroads of diverse moral values and foundations, at the intersection of tradition and innovation, which even more actualizes the uncertain situation of choosing and getting out of this political impasse.
