Abstract
The article makes an attempt to reconstruct the historical development of the concepts and traditions of the East and West, to identify its key points, the complementarity of Eastern and Western ideas that enriched each other. The goal is to identify ways to integrate the concepts of East and West to form a universal and general civilizational basis for the further development of culture and science. The research method is a comparative analysis. Scientific novelty lies in the identification of the specifics of Eastern and Western concepts in relation to knowledge, culture, science, philosophy and mysticism. The role of Islam is substantiated as a mediator of relations between East and West. In conclusion on the basis of the analysis undertaken, it is argued that the likelihood of integration of the Eastern and Western worldviews is real, but it depends on the historical choice of humanity on the path of its further development.
