- Abstract
This study focuses on education as one of the strongest (and in the times of no electronic devices, practically, the strongest) factor of self-identity formation, especially since the times of European Enlightenment. Of significant importance for the study is, first of all, the matter of self-identification of a minority representative in a multicultural society. The study is vital to the present day social life, when many European countries have found themselves in a situation where they have to adopt numerous migrants and search for ways of integrating them. Monocultural societies evidently do not exist anymore in present day world. Today multiculturalism characterizes former one-nation consolidated countries and is stronger pronounced in traditionally multicultural ones. In this research, we investigate one of the most valuable ways of integration and possibility of assimilation - education in a broad meaning of the word. The history of the Jewish community in Russia is analyzed in the study; the objectives are to study the main aspects of education: home education, educational institutions, language of education and existing materials; social aspects and history of the Jewish community are also taken into account.
