Abstract

Axiological themes are extremely important for Ukraine today in light of the problems which the country has met and which are discussed by the conscious community all around the world. The revolutionary events at the end of 2013 – beginning 2014 or „Euromaidan revolution” raised to the surface the issues that previously were not so relevant or were not considered as „a problem”. Violence, hate and intolerance that led to bloodshed, which is the fist in Ukraine since gaining independence in 1990, encourage scientists to raise and discuss the issues of axiological sphere. It became clear that the country, along with many political and economic challenges, is experiencing a moral crisis that is evident and already has both positive and negative consequences.

It is believed that the scientific community of the country should give more attention to values education at all levels. This research analyzes the role of a teacher as one of the main subjects of the educational process and highlights the importance and place of axiological component in teacher professiogram in its Ukrainian and Polish versions. For a comparative analysis of the study Poland was chosen because of a few important factors, among them – its territorial proximity as the closest state of the European Union, bigger experience of Poland in axiological education for young generation and the experience of the state which faced crises and social upheaval, but coped successfully with them.
