- Abstract
There are more than 40 nations in the Russian Federation. They differ in their state status and socio-economic development and act as the main creators of the human cultural fund. The study attempts to discover social functions of the Tuvan folk sports (“Khuresh” wrestling, archery, horse racing). The systemic analysis considers the problem as a social phenomenon regarded in the context of all aspects of public life. Person-directed education and development are social functions providing a great opportunity not only for physical development and athletic improvement; they also imply moral, aesthetic, intellectual, and labor education, as well as spiritually-moral qualities. Social functions implementation depends not only on the traditional sports but also on the orientation of the entire educational system and social development. Educational potential results not only through educational opportunities themselves, but through a system of social relations emerging in the sphere of physical culture and sports
