Interpretation of the Spiritual Values of the Phenomenon of “Tradition” in the Paradigmatic Development of Culture

Abstract

The paper is devoted to the genesis of ideas about spiritual values and the phenomenon of “tradition”, their whole influence on a person, culture and society. The methodological foundations of the study were general scientific research methods: a socio-cultural approach to the phenomenon of “tradition”, a systemic analysis of the paradigm of culture, structural-functional and comparative analysis of the transfer of spiritual values. For the paradigmatic development of culture, the problem of interpreting the spiritual values of the phenomenon of “tradition” is multifaceted. In this study, the most significant points of view of domestic and foreign authors for the cultural paradigm are considered. In the paper, we clarify the essence of the phenomenon of “tradition”; crisis spiritual phenomena are analyzed; the analysis of conceptual tools was carried out; the main points of the scientific point of view on the phenomenon of “tradition” are considered; a systematic analysis of the cultural paradigm was carried out; the features of the interpretation of spiritual values in the paradigm of cultural traditions are determined. Interpretation of the spiritual values of the phenomenon of “tradition” in the paradigmatic development of culture as the basis of a person’s multidimensionality in the conditions of the transformation of social space provides the formation of conditions for one’s self-realization.
