THE PROBLEM OF DEFINING THE CRITERIA FOR THE CONCEPT OF "CIVILIZATION REVOLUTION"
The article presents the results of the study of the problem of defining the criteria of the concept of "civilizational revolution". The relevance of the work is determined by the ongoing process of transformation of individual and collective identity at the present stage of historical development, one of the radical forms of which is a "civilizational revolution", and also by the fact that in the conditions of formation of a multipolar world violent forms of breaking civilizational identity act as a form of confrontation between states in the struggle for world domination. The conclusion is argued that by "civilizational revolution" we mean a violent breakdown of the former civilizational order and the promotion of a fundamentally new civilizational project, which is accompanied by a change in the individual elements of the civilizational model of development. An important condition for the implementation of "civilizational revolution" is such a state of cultural-historical organism (crisis), in which the further existence of a single civilizational project is impossible in its former form.
