Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the article is to substantiate the feasibility of using the Forsyth methodology to preserve traditions as an important element of the intangible cultural heritage. Given the interdisciplinary nature of the problem, the methodology of the study is based on the complex-integrative combination of theoretical approaches of a number of sciences, in particular, cultural studies, public administration, as well as general scientific methods of system analysis, synthesis, abstraction, generalization, and sub. Scientific novelty is connected with an attempt to outline theoretical and practical aspects of the importance of Forsyth's methodology in preserving the traditions from the projection into practical measures of the state in this sphere. Conclusions. The gap between traditionalist and innovative socio-cultural guidelines will continue to grow, provoking new challenges, which not only the cultural community but also the state authorities and the scientific community must respond effectively to. As they are more social institutions, they understand the importance of preserving traditions as the basis of cultural diversity and the collective identities formed on their basis. Addressing the problems of communication between traditions and innovations is an important task of any society and is increasingly being projected into the field of prediction of their future combination in order to identify and create a mockup of the most acceptable future and to safeguard the national culture from possible internal and external disasters. Therefore, the study of the feasibility of using Forsyte's methodology in the socio-cultural field is an actual direction of research for Ukrainian science, which is projected into the practical sphere of state activity, in particular, to determine the priorities of cultural policy.
