Amelchenko, S. N. Philosophical Analysis of the Relation Between Culture and Civilization: Onto-Deontological Aspect

Abstract: Philosophical and social sciences gave birth to different approaches to understanding of the relation between culture and civilization. Depending on the approach to this issue, culture is described as the part of civilization (Arnold Toynbee); one of the two sides of the historical process, civilization being the other side (Weber); an entity that includes civilization (Kagan). Some researchers viewed civilization as the death of culture (Spengler) and others view peculiarities of culture as the source of conflicts arising between civilizations (Samuel Huntington). Additional opportunities to research the issue are revealed by the modeling approach that allows to show the ontological unity of culture and civilization achieved through the balance of their ontological element. Analysis of the ‘must’ modes that form the structure of culture and civilization in the system of existence allows to clarity contradictions of the modern age and outline the paths of future human development.


Keywords:
