Network Interaction of Public Institutions (Education and Culture) to Ensure the Socialization and Inculturation of Persons With Disabilities (Regional Aspect)

Abstract

The authors of the article attempted to consider the network interaction of public institutions (education and culture) as a resource for the implementation of the processes of socialization and inculturation of persons with disabilities (OBS). A significant quantitative growth in the past decades of persons with impairment of psychophysical development in Russia and abroad determines the priority of the activities of public institutions. In the problem field of special pedagogy, the place of interaction of education and culture is given. The article provides an analysis of theoretical and applied research activities of public institutions, proposes to systematize the existing network partnership practices. It is shown that network interaction has a significant potential in the field of socio-cultural develop-ment. The cooperation between organizations of education and culture allows us to solve this task the most successfully. Established by means of the network relationships make it possible not only to exchange each other's resources or compensate for their own deficit at the expense of partner resources, but also to combine the available potential. The authors substantiate and describe theoretically the main provisions of the network interaction of social partners: educational and cultural organizations aimed at ensuring the socialization and inculturation of persons with disabilities, i.e. the implementation of the socio-cultural function of education. Based on the analyzed sources, it is concluded that socialization, i.e. adaptation to the social order of life, occurs faster than inculturation – adaptation to the values, traditions and customs of society. Based on these provisions, a model of network coop-eration of educational and cultural institutions has been developed and described – a structural and content model for ensuring the socialization and inculturation of persons with disabilities, which involves the participation in the process of its implementation of specialists of educational and cultural systems necessary for the specifics of interaction. The proposed model makes it possible to expand partnership relations by means of other social spheres. The results of the study (on the example of an inclusive "Theater for all") can be a starting point for pedagogical teams to understand their ability to design their own models using network interaction resources.
