Reflections on the fate of the Cossacks and the introduction of innovations into the process of continuous Cossack education (historical and anthropological aspect)

The article provides a brief overview of the history of the Cossacks, which takes into account not only historical components, but also civil and cultural codes. The author explores the issues of historical self-identification, which predetermines the unity of the cultural space of Russia, highlights the consolidating factors of the unification of the people. All-Russian patriotic ideology, the presence of a national idea, taking into account soil values, identity, traditions - all these positions have a real impact on spiritual processes in general and on the Cossack youth in particular. In the work, the author highlights such aspects as intersocial and anthroposocial problems, the latter of which are perceived by the population quite acutely. Society is no longer content with the ordinary perception of life; it is looking for a balance between global processes and the archaization of mass consciousness.
