Personal activity and adaptation: methodological positions and praxiological meaning

A human being is "a unique and active being" since he bases the activities on absolutely special system of means: value orientations, motivation factors, purposes, thereby changing within himself. Thus, the study of the mechanism of inclusion of a person into the production relations system, as well as regularities and problems of the adaptive process is relevant. The authors describe the progress in this research area, but also note the insufficient development of the general conception of social adaptation of a person.
