Russian education faults by Tatyana A. Voronova, Anatoliy I. Gretchenko, Mikhail N. Kulapov, Valeriy M. Zuev, Irina A. Kalinina

“…It is noted that the Russian education in the present period of time, as well as other public institutions, in many respects are at the crossroads between the two models of management systems.Materials and method: comparative analysis of approaches to education management, as well as methods of scenario modeling and structural and functional analysis were chosen as research methods.The results of the comparative analysis allow us to state that the Russian education now, are at the crossroads of the choice of management system, the choice of which is hidden in the “rivalry” of the two concepts of the main models of education: European or Anglo-American.The European model assumes orientation of education on formation of the personality, the statement about need of orientation of formation of the personality in the mode of pragmatism is the basis of the Anglo-American model.The analysis allows us to conclude that the choice of management system largely depends on the socio-economic environment and the processes taking place in the country.…”
