Some features of the modern dialogue of civilizations

Abstract

The concept of civilizations dialogue has emerged relatively recently but has undergone a number of changes during its existence. Not to mention the fact that there is no consensus in the scientific community on what exactly should be considered as a dialogue of civilizations. However, it is obvious that there have been and still exist mutual relations between peoples belonging to different civilizations, those relations that, in general, fall under the concept of «dialogue of civilizations». And it is also obvious that depending on a specific historical period of time or epoch, specific circumstances and many different conditions, this dialogue changed its forms. However, the essence of this dialogue and its basis, as it seems to us, remained unchanged, which was due to the very nature of a man. The article, as far as the scope of the article allows, reveals the essence and natural basis of the dialogue of civilizations. In addition, the article finds out what forms this dialogue has taken at the global level in recent decades and what caused the transformation of these forms. The world is changing rapidly, the pace of changes will only rise over time, and analysis of the above is needed.
