Patriotism in Kazakhstan - the basis of successful multi-ethnic society

 

In modern society, the patriotic education of young people is particularly important. As noted by many scientists, in the process of democratic reforms occurred deideologization of Kazakhstan society and the imposition of Western liberal values, and negative impact on the spiritual and moral development of the young generation.

Questions of patriotic education of the younger generation in the spirit of love for the motherland and devotion to the Fatherland, law-abiding citizens of the state have always been on the focus of scientists throughout the history of mankind. The great philosophers, teachers have paid considerable attention to this issue since ancient times.

Our oldest and largest university in Kazakhstan closely monitors all the important documents that define the main priorities and objectives of the development of our state. There is a search for new approaches to the system of patriotic education in view of the current conditions of our society, when our young people are keen on the Western way of life, to be skeptical of the national culture, the traditions of our people. In such a dangerous situation must be gradual formation of new Kazakhstan patriotism, which should be in harmony tradition of the heroic past and the realities of today's life.

This high level of awareness of the younger generation, young people, focusing on the experience of previous generations, is not ready to take on faith any ideals. Therefore, it is important that the formation of a sense of patriotism was happening inside, inner conviction became man, and the teacher task - to develop the cognitive skills of students, teach yourself to design your knowledge to navigate the information space, to develop critical thinking.

An important step towards the revival of the system of patriotic education was a document - the Message of the national leader - Nursultan Nazarbayev to people of Kazakhstan, as expressed in the strategy "Kazakhstan-2050".

Message to people of Kazakhstan has been widely discussed and unanimous supported among student youth of high school.

Young people are not less than adults, concerned about the future of our country. The citizens of our country want to live in a free and economically developed countries, with fair laws, equal opportunities, regardless of their social origin and ethnicity.

Student youth themselves felt fatherly care of the President to raise the living standards of young people, through the possibility of higher education on the basis of grants and flexible student loan system, professional development of students, internships in leading universities of CIS and foreign countries, as well as participation in research programs of higher education institutions.

The achievements of recent years in our country, under the leadership of the far-sighted policy of the President and the Government of the weighted rate for the modernization of the economy of Kazakhstan, gave students an incentive to study well, there were challenges and opportunities for creative development of young people, personal and professional growth and confidence in a happy, bright future.

As noted in the message - "New Kazakhstan' patriotism - the basis of the success of our multi-ethnic and multi-company society and the foundation of Kazakhstan's patriotism should be the equality of all citizens of Kazakhstan and their shared responsibility for the honor of the motherland."

Students of our university, regardless of nationality, are proud that they were born and live in a beautiful country - Kazakhstan. Only in friendship and social consensus is the pledge of the future prosperity of the multinational state of Kazakhstan.

In his Message our President gives us a goal in 2050 to build a political system in which every citizen of Kazakhstan should be firmly confident in the future, not to seek a better life in a foreign land, and benefited the country and flourish in their homeland. Every citizen of Kazakhstan, regardless of their nationality or social origin should feel himself a host in their own land, as the nation's leader - Nursultan Nazarbayev, every effort is made to integrate the multinational Kazakhstan society.

All citizens should be equal in our country. We can not allow the division of society along ethnic lines. "New Kazakhstan' patriotism - it is something that should unite the whole of society, regardless of ethnic differences." Every citizen of Kazakhstan should feel support and support from the government.

As President of Kazakhstan said - "In our society, there should be no "extra" or "alien", "our" and "not ours".  We can not leave the "outside any citizen of our country" and all those who are trying to drive a "wedge" in interethnic consent of the nation, should be prosecuted."

In a society ruled by law and everyone is equal before the law, there is a prospect for career development, equal opportunities for all, as well as the recognition of the international community of Kazakhstan as a legal state.

"We should never allow even the thought that admission to school, get a job and career development will be addressed by ethnicity. The criterion should be one - the highest ethics and professionalism "- a word the President in his Message to the people of Kazakhstan.

Good laws are needed, but without the high culture of the whole society and the moral and spiritual values, to develop patriotism among young people, they do not bear fruit, and the prosperity of the state.

In the strictest laws and the fear of the people can not be kept, need other incentives, and our President is pointing the way to the education of patriotism in Kazakhstan.

The return of the state to the education problems associated with the designation of its priority areas. A special place among them, belongs to patriotic education, which is the main means of strengthening the unity and integrity of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

It should be respect for the heroic historical past of the country, an understanding of the modern contradictory realities, respect for the peoples inhabiting Kazakhstan, their national dignity and culture.

In a multinational state and national civil-patriotic education does not divide the nation and does not separate, it is unites them. Developed patriotic consciousness involves an understanding of all the peoples living in the country as a united family, each member of which is unique in its own way, a sense of patriotism in Kazakhstan' citizen is combined with a sense of a small homeland, native country.

The development of Kazakhstan as a multinational, multi-confessional state involves the solution of educational objectives:

  love for the Fatherland and respect for all peoples of Kazakhstan, their history, traditions, language, culture, national honor and dignity;

  love to the native language and culture of our people;

• respect for the Kazakh people and the understanding of its role in the formation and development of Kazakh statehood;

• understanding of the Russian language as the most important means of international communication and mutual rapprochement of the peoples of Kazakhstan;

  legal awareness and legal culture;

  a deep respect for human values;

  tolerance, careful attention to the national and religious affiliation of a person, to the ethno-cultural and religious needs of the people;

• intolerance of all forms of nationalism, chauvinism and racism; hate to genocide, apartheid, fascism and preaching a particular racial, ethnic or religious exclusivity.

The foundation of patriotic education is a national and cultural identity of the individual, awareness of their belonging to a certain culture and the preservation of its values.

And the special role of the President's message to the nation holds the radical Kazakhs. "Kazakhstan - this is our land. This land, which from time immemorial belonged to our ancestors. The land, which will belong to our descendants. And we have a direct responsibility for ensuring that our land was peace and quiet. We must be true hosts of our land - hospitable, welcoming, generous, tolerant."

Due to historical features of Kazakhs equally important is the mastering and creative development of the two cultural traditions - national and total Russian.

It is well known that the most important mechanism for cultural identity, is language. On its undeniable role in patriotic education K. Ushinskiy pointed out: "The language of the people - the best, never fading and always flowers bloom again throughout her spiritual life... In the language spiritualized the whole nation and the entire homeland... In the bright, clear depths of the national language is reflected the whole history of the spiritual life of the people ... Language is the most alive, the most abundant and is a strong link connecting the obsolete, living and future generations of people in one great, historic and living whole." Thus, the language teacher is considering as a living organism, which reflects the fate, thoughts and aspirations of the people. The formation of spiritually rich personality with a strong patriotic feeling is not possible outside the context of the national spiritual tradition. The acquisition of the Kazakh language means communion with it, dive the treasury of the Kazakh culture.

The current situation in the country a lot of multi-ethnic unity is the basis for the necessary education of the person of the third millennium, and defining the modern understanding of the qualities of patriotism, tolerance, acceptance of human and ethical values, love of the small and large country, the capacity for self-responsibility choice and of others.

History has proven that the Kazakhs have always been a peace-loving, hospitable to all peoples and nationalities, who were forcibly relocated to Kazakhstan, during World War II, during the collectivization and the "development" of the virgin lands.

Kazakhstan became the native land for many of them, here they are purchased with the shelter, work, create international family and they all began to work for the prosperity of our Kazakhstan.

It is the free development of all peoples living in our country, to bring together people of different nationalities and laid the foundation for prosperity, peace and the strengthening of the Kazakh state. Kazakhstan should become one united nation with its national idea, patriotism, moral and ethical code, the bearer of the Eurasian way of thinking and Eurasian spiritual and aesthetic characteristics and behavioral patterns.

It is necessary to teach the youth of Kazakhstan proud of their country through the education of patriotism and devotion to his homeland, the responsibility to its people for the fate and prosperity of our country.

The desire to achieve a worthy place of our country in the global community, but most importantly to preserve all that is carefully handed down to us by our ancestors - the traditions and customs of Kazakhs, territorial integrity and sovereignty of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
