The study of ethno-social aspects of human behavior by humane, neurophysiological and genetic approaches: directions and perspectives

Neurobiology gave the new directions in the study of ethno-social aspects of human behavior. Article shows the perspectives in multi-disciplinary research of behavioral strategies, which based on integrated humane, scientific, medical and mathematical approaches. Ethnography takes a special place: it takes up the problems of ethnic specificity in behavioral strategies, translation and reconstitution of the cultural stereotypes, ways of communication in various ethnic communities. The role of ethnography can be in the formation of blocks of knowledge, such as the kinds and types of aggression and reconciliation traditions, conflict nature and resolution among different ethnic groups, etc. Tomographic methods and mathematical data processing serve to evaluate the data. Principles of ethnopedagogics, intergenerational and social translation of cultural experience may serve to determine the specifics of values and ideas, becoming of worldview and image of ego as well as characteristics of interpersonal interaction that is the subject matter of the social neuroscience. Ethnographical data are useful in cultural neuroscience, because it studied the neurobiological human activity in sociocultural circumstances and determine the presence or absence of biological background in cultural community. The neuroscience of art history is the new direction, combining with interaction of cerebration and cultural events and developed by British art historian John Onians in 2005-2008s (University of Eastern England, Norwich, Great Britain ). He continued to develop the “neurodirection ” in humane sciences and concretized the neuroesthetics in history of art in the same manner as other researches spun off the neuroarchaeology into a separate knowledge area. Neuroscience of art history can study the art ethnographically, in other words, analyze the ethno-specific items and art objects - architecture, arts and grafts, costume, ornaments.
