The Ist International Symposium on Cultural-Historical Psychology “Urgent Problems of Cultural-Historical Psychology”

Abstract

Addressing cultural-historical psychology is one of the responses to the challenge of our time in the search for a new psychology. The appeal, “forward, back to Vygotsky,” made by A. A. Puzirey (1996) indicates the path and the final result of such a search. In the work of the symposium, the following problems of our time: crisis of modern psychology; development of personality, creativity, higher mental functions; the problem of personal freedom, especially aggravated in the context of digitalization; issues of the impact of digitalization in preschool and school education; questions of defectology and problems of training were identified. The solution of these problems is possible with the help of cultural-historical psychology.
