Introduction. The article determines the problem of spiritual and moral education as one of the priorities of the socio-cultural space of the region. It comprehends theoretical indicators and levels of development of the inner world of the individual, as well as the conditions for the effectiveness of the formation of moral postulates. It demonstrates the empirical and local history infrastructure of Mordovia, which is the basic construct of spiritual, moral and religious education of the target audience.
Materials and Methods. The empirical material of the work is presented by rich sociocultural infrastructure of the Republic of Mordovia; theoretical one is based on the works of modern researchers on the problems of spiritual and creative formation of personality in the process of the socialization. Reliability and scientific validity of the results are provided by comparative, typological, historical traditional methods, as well as the well-presented empirical research database – the empirical and local infrastructure of the region, compiled using a representative selection of source material and its subsequent correct interpretation.
Results and Discussion. Regionalization in the context of preserving the country’s unified sociocultural space leads to the definition of a new humanitarian paradigm, which provides a high level of general culture, development of spiritual intelligence, and satisfaction of personal cognitive interests achieved by immersion in ethnic culture, familiarization with Russian and world values of civilization. A similar approach defines the invariants of the modern ethnocultural system, indicating the ways and possibilities of their implementation at the regional level. On the territory of Mordovia, people of different nationalities and religions always lived in good neighborliness. The Christian Orthodox religion has traditionally been a leading one. Historically it has contributed to the formation of public consciousness and human environment, which has preserved the main ethical standards and values of life.
Conclusion. The sociocultural landscape of Mordovia allows us to provide knowledge not only about understanding of the meaning of life, its embodiment in the traditions and life of the people, but also about the centers of spiritual culture. Through the development of diverse spiritual ideas, a person gains social experience, objective information, joins culture, religion and spirituality.
