摘要：The present ceaselessly demands from us to seek newer and more actual
determinations for it, but at the same time it forces us to question it about
this novum. We are confronted with the problem of changeability and durability,
or identity and dissimilarity of socio-cultural phenomena. When some phenomena
rise forth and begin to extend their influence, others gradually vanish. This
leads me to pose questions about the present status of cultural differences. I
will ask if there are fundamental cultural differences in the contemporary
world, where one can find them and of what character they can be.
