The relevance of addressing the analysis of some of the ideas of one of the leaders of the Slavophiles Konstantin Aksakov is determined primarily by the fact that in their arguments the Slavophiles emphasized the positive qualities of Russian culture, proving the ability of Russia and the Russian people to improve themselves, without referring to foreign cultural subjects as absolute authorities, but at the same time recognized the importance of intercultural dialogue. Currently, there is a moral choice of the path of development, the realization of which can be facilitated by understanding the ideas about the Russian land and the place of Russia in the world, expressed by the thinker. The study of K. Aksakov's works using logical-philosophical, socio-philosophical methods, as well as methods of content analysis allows us to draw the following conclusions. The views of the thinkers can be used as the basis for the modern definition of the categories "Motherland" and "Fatherland" as key values-the foundations of a just society. The philosopher's understanding of the essence of love for his native land and assessment of the prospects for intercultural interaction, as well as his comments on the issue of patriotic education, can be in demand as a philosophical justification for the ongoing domestic and global transformations.
