Abstract

The dynamic development of modern society is associated with the intensification of integration processes, which, in turn, actualize the study of problems of intercultural dialogue. The author of the article attempts to analyse the problem of intercultural dialogue in postmodern conditions. The relevance of the study is determined by the necessity to eliminate the encountered obstacles of the effective intercultural interaction. The researcher identifies the factors contributing to the optimization of intercultural dialogue, including the adoption of common cultural prerequisites, the specific position of the participants in the dialogical relations, and openness. The scientist scrutinizes the possibilities how to realize these conditions in the postmodern time. Postmodernism is considered as the current state of culture where a certain type of personality is formed. Based on an analysis, the author concludes that the negative aspects of postmodernism create the personality that is unable to conduct a constructive dialogue. Besides the scholar suggests that mastering the culture of dialogue is significantly important now.
