Human Isolation as a Socio-Pedagogical Problem

Abstract: 
The article presents the author’s concept of human isolation as a socio-pedagogical problem. Weak interest to the problem of human isolation in modern socio-humanitarian knowledge is stated and several explanations are offered. The purpose of the article: to characterise human isolation in society as a socio-cultural and psychological-pedagogical phenomenon and a socio-pedagogical problem Methodology. The proposed concept was the result of many years of research, which included the analysis of historical, philosophical, ethnographic, sociological, socio-psychological and pedagogical sources, as well as a variety of empirical materials, which together became the basis of the proposed concept. Results of the study. The isolation is considered in two aspects: the isolation of man as a generic being in phylogenesis and the isolation of a specific individual in specific communities in ontogenesis. Both aspects are meaningfully disclosed. In turn, the isolation of a concrete individual in ontogenesis also has two aspects: social and individual, which are also disclosed in the text. The article analyses different variants of the content of definitions of isolation and gives a variant of the socio-pedagogical definition of this concept.
