The articlehighlights the urgency of individual socialization in the socio-cultural educational process. The authors define the essence of the acmeological approach; analyze the concepts of “acmeology”, “inculturation”, “socialization”; determine the levels of socialization. The paper discusses the principles of the acmeological approach to socialization in the socio-cultural educational space (general methodological and specific methodological principles). The positions of scientists on the issue of “adulthood”, “maturity” were presented; the principles of determinism, development, complexity, system, humanism were revealed. Particular attention was paid to the reflexive activity of the individual, his/her self-knowledge as a process of inculturation. The features of socialization of the person in sociocultural educational space were formulated in terms of the acmeological approach. The authors conclude that socialization in terms of the acmeological approach is a process of a planned development of the personality in society, adherence to sociocultural values, the emergence of social maturity on the basis of general and specific methodological principles.
