Abstract
The paper presents the main ideas expressed by the author at two international conferences: “The Multi-Polar World XXI. The search for balance” (Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan, held on 25-26 April 2019) and “Interconnectivity in Central Asia: Challenges and new Opportunities” (Tashkent, Uzbekistan, held on 19-20 February 2019), and deals with the issues of the necessity of dialogue and mutual understanding between different civilizational layers in national States and in inter-State relations. The proposed material on the topic of how different States manage the problem of inter-civilizational and intra-civilizational conflicts is based upon historical legacy and contemporary events and trends. After presenting the concise theoretical and conceptual foundations of what constitutes major conflict configurations in modern State, the issue of the different paths to managing conflict is given. Two countries are examined, Ukraine and Uzbekistan, the results indicate the need for social and political diversity as a mechanism for dampening conflict, rather than trying to enforce homogeneity.
