Abstract
This article is devoted to the analysis of philosophical bases for developing science education concept taking into account historical retrospective and modern research achievements. The inquiry is one of a comprehensive attempt to analyze the range of philosophical and pedagogical aspects of the multifaceted concept of science education, the diversity of approaches to elaborate science education concept as a case of philosophical analysis, and the axiological aspects of science education through the prism of developing values and means of democracy. The role and place of science education in developing responsible citizenship are examined.
