Culture and intercultural communication are deeply personal. The author seeks to approve this provision on examples of long-standing cooperation with distinguished philosophers, social and political thinkers of Latin America, such as V Urquidi, L.Zea, Colombian O. Fals Borda, Uruguayan R.Arismendi, Argentinien E.Agosti.Among themes, developed by above theorists, the problem of characteristics of middle - ranking countries, importance of region to the modern world society, link of model of modernization with  ftional traditional culture, problem of national identity (especially some migration and cross-breeding problems), ratio of culture to politics, part of intellectuals in modern socio-political processes are very important. Very special are the problems of globalistics as science and ideology and the relationship of humanistic party with globalist utopia.The people I talked about were different in character. Agosti is an idealist, Urkidi is a realistic, calm, supporter of the fact that it is necessary to work, raising the cultural level, level of education, health care, sense of justice step by step. The Anglo-Saxon moment was present in it, Latin Americans are more impetuous people. Cea was impetuous, Orlando was the most passionate: the whole office in the photo of Torres. Arimendi and Agosti are "captains"' as Agosti called his friend Rodney, people who were ready for calms and storms. But they are all people, of course, honest, with dignity, generosity; this is why it is nice and helpful to remember them.
