Abstract
- The report identifies the main contradictions in teaching social science in modern Russia in the context of the implementation of the idea of civic education and the formation of civic responsibility. - The results of the comparative analysis of the basic federal documents of social science education, textbooks, sociological surveys and supporting materials for the examination in social science are described. - It is shown that despite the declared ambitious goals of creating civic responsibility, critical consciousness and practical competencies, the course of social science continues to remain abstract and does not fully correspond to the social realities in Russia and the world.
