Abstract
In recent times, few aspects of moral education have drawn the attention of Russian officials as has patriotic education. The new steps in patriotic education demonstrate the revival of the policy of State Patriotism that had been challenged for a short period at the beginning of educational reforms in the 1990s. The revitalization of traditionalist paradigms in moral education calls into question initially declared efforts to build democratic non-totalitarian schools in Russia.
