Introduction. The use of the axiological field of the Finno-Ugric culture within the framework of the formation of the socio-humanitarian component of modern education presupposes the acquisition of new knowledge related to the study of the value dominants of the Finno-Ugric culture in diachrony and the ways of their actualization in modern society. The article considers the study of the ethnocultural values of the Finno-Ugric peoples on the example of the Baltic-Finnish (Karelians, Vepsians), Perm (Udmurts, Komi), Volga (Mordovins, Mari), Ugric (Khanty, Mansi) groups. Materials and Methods. The material was the data of a questionnaire on the value dominants of the Finno-Ugric culture and the ways of their actualization in modern society. The research methodology includes a combination of humanitarian (cultural-anthropological, axiosociometric, functional, cross-cultural) approaches and natural research methods of analysis (mathematical statistics). Results and Discussion. With the help of the questionnaire developed by the authors, a cross-cultural study was carried out, which made it possible to identify the system of ethnocultural values of the Finno-Ugric peoples, as well as the most important value dominants characteristic of these peoples at the present stage. The main mechanisms of actualization of the value dominants of the Finno-Ugric culture, as well as Russian experience, are demonstrated. Conclusion.
