AMERICAN VALUES OF CULTURAL DIVERSITY AS A KEY TO ACHIEVING HARMONY OF SOCIETY

Abstract

This article examines the system of cultural values and patriotic or civic education in the United States, which is the most important part of the state, public and educational policies in this country. The study of this experience is useful in terms of improving educational policy in modern Ukraine. American society is really very peculiar because people have made a unique historical experiment, creating a new powerful state from virtually nothing. The history of the USA is very interesting in terms of cultural values. The American nation was formed as an experiment in the field of self-government. This means self-regulation: a personal, economic, social, and political, cultural, oriented towards certain values. Many of the ideals of American society are rooted in the history of the country and beliefs. For example, individualism, the belief that persistent work can improve the fate of everyone; the desire to rely on their own strength - examples of traditional American values since the first settlers. These were migrants who lacked opportunities for self-fulfillment in their homeland.
