Cultural determination of civilizational phenomena
In philosophy of culture there is a submission about cultural and historical type as a unifiedcultural and civilizational formation. This conception assumes that culture is objectification of suchcomponents of human nature like striving for search of sense of ones existence, belief, beauty, truth,sacrifice; civilization is a relevance of requirement in confirmation its successful, safe, firm existencein given world.Determination of civilizational components as cultural components means that anyphenomenon of cultural and historical type is a unity of civilizational and cultural aspects with cultureaspect determination. Specific character of cultural aspect of morality means that moral values existtranscendentally as ideal reference points, common standards, setting universal people connection.Moral ideals determine civilizational values, which can have situational character, can be measured bytheir practical advisability.Cultural determination clearly be displayed on a level with ancestral formsof culture. The high purpose of the science is devotion to the Truth first of all, and mans comfort inthis world after all. Cultural determination can be implicit. As a rule, cultural determination is impliciton a level with private, single and within the limits of concrete activity. In this case cultural componentis necessary constituent part of active process and becomes actual in aim (the aim is considered as antranscendental aspect) and in self sensation of devotion.Cultures, cultural epochs which have transcendentaldominants on the polar positions either predominate or escape from mental kernel. Culturalepochs begin to reflex at their mental dominants. It can also serve as a confirmation of cultural determinationof civilizational phenomena. It can also prove cultural determination of civilizational phenomena.In general, the image of civilization is determinated by cultural values. Only in modern globalworld the aspiration for a single civilization can be called strategic, but this aspiration can not be universalbecause of determination by cultural values. Look of the modern world proves it
