The paper provides an overview of concepts and theories developing the problem of value orientations in the context of ethnic socialization. The author emphasizes the relevance of researching value orientations of the personality and assimilation of traditional values and novation in the context of globalization. The necessity of considering the system of value orientations as a criterion for the success of ethnic socialization is substantiated. It is noted that the assimilation of values of ethnic communities promotes formation of positive ethnic identity, and the decline in the importance of traditional values leads to a blurring of ethnic identity, the loss of connection with traditional culture. The paper highlights the negative trends in the structure of value orientations of the young generation, in terms of their lack of formation, disintegration, loss of traditional values and the meaning of life. Solving these problems is seen in the transition to a value-semantic paradigm of education in creating certain prerequisites for filling individual sense into the information about the humanistic values, in developing psychological and pedagogical foundations of education of personality characteristics that combine the best features of a particular ethnic group, the Russian people as a whole, and human values.
