| description | To claim universality, education studies have to integrate the academic heritage of all regions and cultures of the world and abandon historical ethnocentrism. The system of education adopted in the East offers an opportunity to design didactic concepts of the future for culturally pluralistic, but stable national states. The cultural approach popular in many Eastern countries made Japan, South Korea, Singapore, and China leaders in the field of education. The analysis of their success may help to identify key consolidating practices. This review covered 40 philosophical literature, pedagogical publications, analytical reports, and statistical reports provided by international organizations (OECD, 2022) and rating agencies (Times HE WUR, 2024; QS WUR, 2024) in three languages. The Eastern approach to education establishes a connection between learning and culture in a comparative and decolonial perspective, with politics and education being inextricably intertwined. The analysis yielded some guidelines that could fit into the Russian context while promoting the values of a multipolar world and encouraging young Russians to adopt a more active social position: 1) infrastructure provision; 2) personnel selection; 3) involvement of all subjects of the academic process as a guarantee of success; 4) interdisciplinary vector of modernization of academic content and methods. The results can be used to develop advanced training programs for teachers, to compile university textbooks for pedagogical disciplines, and to improve the state education policy. This comparative analysis was part of a complex comprehensive study to create a didactic cultural concept for general and higher education. |
