The relevance of the chosen topic is determined by the necessity of enhancing the role of education amidst growing geopolitical and socio-cultural tensions, as well as due to the tendency of excessive utilitarianization of education, which negates its culture-creating function. The objective of the study is the theoretical substantiation of the expediency of defining the formation of axiological culture as a fundamental goal of modern education.
The paper conceptualizes the notion of “axiological culture” as a personality quality that includes the capacity for value reflection and modeling of value-balanced life strategies. The research substantiates the necessity of implementing the ideas of axiopedagogy and innovative educational methodologies for the practical realization of the task of forming axiological culture, particularly through the development of value intelligence.
The conducted study proves that the formation of humanistic axiological culture through the development of value intelligence is the super-task of modern education, as it ensures social competence in the context of globalization challenges and dynamic socio-cultural changes.
