Abstract
The relevance of the article is due to the theoretical and practical need to rethink the content of the concept of “culture” in the context of the formation of world culture. The authors turn to comparative philosophical studies: concepts, categories, approaches and methods from social philosophy, philosophical anthropology, cross-cultural management, sociology, theory and practice of intercultural communication are used. The key conclusion is the provision that the structuralsystem analysis of culture allows us to represent it as a multi-tiered system, each level of which is interconnected with other levels. Cultural diversity can be thought of as the degree to which there are differences within and between individuals, based on both subjective and objective cultural components. The article substantiates the position that the formation of meanings and meanings common for different peoples and cultures as the upper tier of world culture will contribute to the more effective achievement of mutual understanding by participants in intercultural dialogue by minimizing the degree of influence of cross-cultural barriers.
