Axiology of the Borderlands in the Context of Intercultural Education and Socialisation

Summary/Abstract: Borderland societies are subject to processes such as upbringing and socialisation which, contrary to homogenous cultures, take place in a complex cultural, social and political surrounding. Therefore, the course of socialisation and upbringing influences is dynamised by factors absent within culturally homogenous societies. Thus, for instance, the axiology of a borderland focuses on values such as pro-social or cognitive ones, which appear to be the most common and favourable for the intercultural society, enabling dynamic, but harmonious coexistence of various cultures in the borderland. Moreover, axiology taking place in the context of a borderland socialisation is related not only to the intercultural education with which it shares the priorities and goals, but it also tackles the borderland (heterogenic) identity, which is shaped by values specific for such symbolic and material area.
