Abstract

A serious problem of the present-day globalizing world is the inability of “unrelated” cultures to have a dialogue, which leads to many local and global conflicts, escalating tension in inter-ethnic and inter-religious relationships. The contradictions of sociocultural reality can be studied from the humanitarian perspective which will help to reveal the specificity of globalization processes within cultural space. The article’s authors sharing this idea analyze the theoretical basics for development of a new humanitarian paradigm. Its relevance is determined by the need to form attitudes of a “globalization era human” whose system of values is able to assure progressive interaction of sociocultural systems. The article describes such important factors of intercultural relationships development as the acknowledgment of cultural uniqueness and increase of culture communicative potential. The results of the analysis make it possible to substantiate the significance of communicative competence and tolerance as the key principles of a new type of thinking helping to create favorable conditions for the dialogue of cultures under the conditions of objective integration of the mankind
