PATRIOTISM AS А VALUE: ESSENCE AND FUTURE PROSPECTS

Journal Title: Education: Modern Discourses - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue

Abstract

The article is devoted to the problem of patriotism based on the unity of its cognitive and emotional components. Therefore, patriotism as a social phenomenon has been characterized. Moreover, patriotism has the essential indicators, which are practically manifested through personality’s behavior, action and communication. The author defines patriotism as an unconditional and highly meaningful feeling-value, which characterizes the person’s attitude towards people, homeland, state and oneself. Unconditional aspect of patriotism means that the feeling of patriotism cannot be founded on external forms of encouragements. The highly semantic aspect of patriotism is not associated with the lower, existential needs, but with the highest life determinants of personality. According to a conceptual definition of patriotism, the author proposes the basic components that serve as diagnostic signals to determine its degree of development in a particular personality. A set of regulations, based on deep psychological mechanism, is practically significant for educators in order to organize the process of developing a feeling of patriotism. As a result, they are very effective in the educational process.
