This article discusses the most significant features of the Western and Russian civilizations that determine the content of the cross-cultural West – Russia dialogue. Based on the identified features, the author proposes an approach to the formation of Russia’s position in this cross-cultural dialogue dialogue. There is necessary to ensure preservation of the national and cultural originality of Russia as the main condition for the equal dialogue. Also, the throwback to the positions of isolationism is inadmissible, because integration – first of all, the economic one “ is an objective necessity for Russia. The latter is impossible without the cultural integration, achieved by means of the equal dialogue of cultures.
