Abstract: The article is devoted to the in-depth consideration of the most common problems connected with the role and function of educational sciences in the modern cultural and education situation. The speeches made by D. I. Feldstein, vice-president of Russian Academy of Education and the Head of Advisory Council of VAK of the Russian Federation for psychology and pedagogies, served as a starting point for the research. The speeches were focused upon typical problems of psychological and pedagogical theses, and also on the actual challenges in education. As a result of consecutive interpretation of the main problems and contradictions, and some reconstruction of basic ontological ideas belonging to the philosophy of the XX century (L. Vygotsky, M. Heidegger, G. Bataille, J. Baudrillard, P. Bourdieu, U. Eco etc.), the author offers the key ideas which preset both the trends in educational space for the XXI century and project future-oriented lines for education research. The author is open for discussion of the article, such as additional problems settings, changes in interpretations, reflection and reconstruction of starting positions.
