Christian axiological foundations of modern intra-family relationships in the context of globalization

Abstract

The aim of the article is to put forward and substantiate the thesis that today globali-zation, political processes, global migration flows, the leveling of national cultures, the complexity of interethnic relations cause crisis phenomena in the spiritual and moral sphere, which leads to the transformation of the family institution. In this re-gard, the thesis is put forward that the appeal to Christian axiology becomes particu-larly relevant in preserving the traditional understanding of family and marriage rela-tions, which, from the perspective of Orthodox theology, has important implications for the future of the country. The paper focuses on the anti-Christian orientation of globalization and its destructive influence on the institution of the family and the formation of young people, as well as on the positive influence of Christian axiology on intrafamily relationships. As a result, the constructive influence of Gospel values on intrafamily relationships and on the emotional and behavioral features of a person is asserted. The conclusion is made, that a departure from the Gospel attitudes leads to the destruction of spiritual bindings, the death of the family institution, the de-structuring of interpersonal relations, which is dangerous to the integrity and stability of Russian society. Therefore, it is necessary to rely on the Christian faith, the Gospel principles, and the strengthening of church-state relations in the protection and strengthening the family institution.
