THE GHOST OF POST-CAPITALISM AND OUTPACE DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY OF RUSSIAN EDUCATION
the article argues that in the context of the transition to a post-capitalist society, the future of Russia depends on the intellectual potential of the country's citizens, their ability to generate new ideas and technologies. The purpose of the author was to determine the outline of the strategy for the development of Russian education, considered as a tool that ensures the preservation of the country as one of the global actors. To implement the plan the following concepts were addressed: the concepts of socio-cultural evolution; conceptual constructions that comprehend the socio-cultural transit of the beginning of the 21st century; holistic approach to education. The use of transdisciplinary methodology made it possible to put the strategy of domestic education in the context of complex and contradictory global processes that make the future of the planetary com-munity uncertain. The author believes that post-capitalism is able to appear in the form of socio-cultural structures with opposite consequences for humanity (elevating a person or dehumanizing him). In order to ensure a positive scenario for socio-cultural dynamics, it is necessary to abandon the strategy of «catch-up development» in favor of the outpace development strategy of Russian society and education. Such a strategy should be focused on the formation of a subject driven by post (non) materialistic motivation, sharing a dualistic system of values, and assume general accessibility, lifelong education, its research, personality-developing and transdisciplinary nature, allowing both to ensure a high level of mass education and to nurture talents.
