Abstract

On October 8, 2018, the Institute of philosophy of RAS held a conference “Dialogue of Slavic cultures: communication, rationality, strategies of tolerance”. The conference was organized by the Institute of philosophy of RAS, together with the Institute of Slavic culture of A. N. Kosygin Russian State University. The relevance of the stated topic is related to the current state of society, where the strategies of interaction of different cultures are in crisis. Its overcoming is connected with the search for rational and mutually beneficial and tolerant trajectories of cross-cultural dialogue in a multicultural society. Successful communication depends on the knowledge and attitudes of a person who functions as an active subject, inscribed in a cultural tradition and is ready to understand the position of the Other. In this context, the issues of communication and interaction of cultures become related to the issues of understanding and comprehension of the historical foundation underlying the modern cultural contacts. Rationality is a reliable guarantee of recovery, removal of tension, tolerance, development and successful promotion of cross-cultural dialogue in modern society. The past and present of Slavic cultures became the subject matter of discussion. Experts in various fields of humanities (philosophers, historians, art historians and cultural studies) took part in the conference, which characterizes it as an interdisciplinary event and displays its relevance not only in general theoretical terms, but also as a disciplinary study of specific areas of humanitarian knowledge.
