THE CRISIS OF MALE IDENTITY IN MODERN CONDITIONS: A PHILOSOPHICAL AND ANTHROPOLOGICAL ANALYSIS
Abstract and keywords
Abstract (English):
The article is devoted to the study of the crisis of male identity in the context of the transformation of gender roles and social values of modernity. The author analyzes the existential and cultural causes of disorientation of modern men. The article examines the influence of paternal deprivation, which leads to the infantilization of personality, the conflict between the consumer ideals of society and the need for genuine self-realization, as well as the dialectic of male and female principles in the process of identity formation. Overcoming the crisis requires not a return to patriarchal models, but a creative rethinking of the masculine principle through the prism of existential responsibility, fidelity to vocation and a balance between tradition and modernity.

Keywords:
male identity, anthropology of courage, boy's upbringing, identity crisis, tradition
