Model of Tolerance of Intercultural Communication

In this paper a model of tolerance of intercultural communication as a methodology of solving sharp confessional, ethnic and natural conflicts of modernity is built. It's shown that the culture is a system of mental dominants at the level of being; the systems of mental dominants are qualitatively original because the cultures are unique and must be equal; the system of mental dominants and mental nucleus of culture determines intensity to maintenance of own identity; perception of cultural and civilizational phenomena of the other culture is limited by this intensity. So, the space of cultural tolerance opening the possibilities for prosperity and development of each culture and complementary interaction of cultures are possible on condition that each of them awares their own mental originality, status of mental nucleus as a limit of intercultural mutual influence and realizes own individuality and equality of all cultures.
