Journal Title: Духовність особистості: методологія, теорія і практика - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 82
Abstract
The article actualizes the problem of modern youth value orientations and their dynamics. The essence of the concept «values» in terms of various sciences is revealed. The attempt has been made to define the influence of modern civilization on the value orientations of youth. Emphasis is placed on the matter of priorities of modern youth value outlook. It is emphasized that the role of technology and advanced industry in the development of society is being grossly overestimated, and this can lead to a moral and spiritual decline of mankind. It should be noted that people who possess the most advanced knowledge in the field of science and technology, the supporters of so-called technocratic views, underestimate the role of such undeniably significant, meaningful concepts in public life as spiritual culture, spiritual future of mankind as a whole, and, particularly, the future of youth, which is being the driving force of all changes in society. It is underlined that the young generation, being in the process of personality development, is under the pressure of the contradictory issues of modern civilization. This is largely related to imbalance of material and spiritual values of young people, as psychologically immature and extremely vulnerable part of our society. Emphasis is made on material values, which are being indisputable priority of today’s youth. The author concludes that value outlook of youth is not final and irreversible as it acquires permanent changes under the influence of contradictory processes of modern civilization.
