摘要

The article deals with the actual social and philosophical problems connected with the value transformations of post-Soviet society in the transition period of its development.The focus is on mental(ideological)attitudes or“traps for practical reason”that prevent the democratization and humanization of Russian public consciousness.One of such mental attitudes is the trap of historical heritage,which is a complex of probabilistic judgments about the historical purpose of society and the complete determination of the future by its past.In the course of rational-critical analysis,the erroneous biogenetic approach to Russian history is revealed,as well as possible negative consequences of its application to the solution of urgent social problems.The historical situation of the“Blockade of Leningrad”is considered to be such a pressing problem.
