Session 10.09 Historic Sites: New Approaches to Culture Preservation and Education in the Ukrainian Carpathians
Session Abstract or Summary
The session will be dedicated to the new approaches to culture preservation and education in the Ukrainian Carpathians. The first presenter will speak about heritage sights in the Ukrainian Carpathians and their role in preserving culture of highland communities. The development of our civilization brings up the need to address issues related to the preservation of cultural diversity and cultural identity in conditions in which the consumer culture and the processes of globalization continue to expand. World development is the external factor that has a significant impact on the nature and direction of historical and cultural processes in social order. This particular factor contains substantial destructive trends of unification of the cultural space, facing a nation-state with the problem of preserving their own cultural identity in the international arena as well as supporting the cultural diversity in society. To cultural heritage also assigns historical sights - castles that have historical and social impact. The role of Transcarpathian castles is characterized in the presentation as an important way of preserving the culture of the rural population in the mountain area.
The second presenter will speak about family traditions and customs and their role in educating and upbringing highland students of the Ukrainian Carpathians.
The third presentation will provide information on how the Ukrainian Diaspora has preserved their unique culture and traditions in Appalachia.
