Postmodernism in Russian pedagogical discourse

The article analyzes the state and level of theoretical elaboration of the issues of pedagogy of the postmodern era in the Russian scientific literature. Based on the analysis of the content of publications posted in the Russian leading bibliographic resource - bibliographic database of scientific publications “The Russian Science Citation Index» – the ratio of publications devoted to the problems of postmodernism in non-pedagogical and pedagogical discourse is revealed. There are established the main clusters, which include publications on general problems of postmodern pedagogy, problems of meta-postmodern pedagogy and anti-pedagogy. The interpretive approach allows us to prove that in Russian pedagogy, critical and analytical consideration of foreign pedagogical arrays dominates. At the same time, there are first attempts to determine the author's position on the creation of Russian postmodern pedagogy, which at present is not completely methodologically entrusted. The arguments used by the authors to substantiate postmodern pedagogy are very exotic and fully correspond to the principle “Anything goes”, which is a methodologically regulating postmodern pedagogy.
