Journal Title: Філософські обрії - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 37

Abstract

The article analyses the peculiarities of civilization development. It is established that Western European civilization is represented in the form of the politics-economic entity – European Union, using the weak economy of others, most often of Eastern European countries tries to solve its own problems related to the satisfaction of needs and benefits of its citizens. In this regard, Western European civilization became universal, it transformed and conquered all modern world. It is found out that Ukrainian society is on the clash between civilizations and today it performs the role of so called buffer zone. The limitropheness of the Ukrainian society is proved, which, as in the times of National liberation war of 1648-1654 and the National-democratic revolution of 1917-1920, and now has an impact on the mentality of the Ukrainian society, its definiteness in the further development. It is grounded that without a strong economy of our state and without implementing the values of Western European civilization, the Ukrainian society will not be considered by the countries of the Old Europe as equal. In this regard, at this stage the attention is focused on the neutral status of our state with the further joining Western European civilization as an equal partner, not a vassal
