Abstract
Objective of the study is to conduct the analysis of the development and complication of modern Russian society. According to N. I. Lapin’s theory the essential feature of modern Russian society is the formation of the “synergistic complexities”.
The methodological basis of the research. The sovereign sociological paradigm is used for the diagnostics of the “synergistic complexities”. The paradigm is based on the author’s nonlinear-humanistic sociological imagination.
The results of the study.
The “synergistic complexities” are the realities as a result of its nonlinear formation in the context of the past, present and future. Its immanent essence is manifested in the self-development and self-organization of nature, society, technologies. The hybridization of these components is expressed in the emergent effects: instability, disequilibrium and dynamic chaos, which cover all the spheres of human activity. Therefore, the nature of the realities in which the Russians live, study and work become qualitatively more complex; they acquire the synergistically complex nature. Five types of the synergistic complexities established in the new Russia are considered, its nature has both global and national-cultural content.
Prospects of the study. From the standpoint of the sovereign sociological paradigm, the study of the formation of the synergetic complexity of the domestic education is perspective. Its hybridization is fundamentally new: the teacher – the digital mediator (computer, gadget) – the student. They form the integral whole, acquiring co-functionality. It is extremely important to identify the possible means of preserving the genotype of our culture.
