The Impact of Globalization on the National Education of Youth: Challenges and Opportunities

Abstract

The process of globalization is currently impacting all aspects of young people's lives. In particular, the national education system is facing specific problems and opportunities within this process. This article examines the effects of globalization on the consciousness, values, and moral-normative concepts of young people. Mainly, negative aspects such as the weakening of national identity, the excessive influx of Western culture, and the disorderliness of information flow are presented as problems. At the same time, the positive sides such as the expansion of young people's worldview through globalization and the opportunity to become acquainted with modern technologies and knowledge are also analyzed. The authors provide proposals and recommendations for strengthening national education and raising young people as a well-rounded generation with ideological immunity. The results of the research emphasize the necessity for the national education system to be updated in accordance with the conditions of globalization.
