The issues of cyclic culture development are regarded in the
article. The author proves the thesis by means of many examples
from history of culture of different epochs. In particular, under the
conditions of a post-industrial society, relations between modern
people and artistic sphere are producing an increasingly tangible
influence of sensitive mass culture. On the whole interaction between
global cycles and human values is one of topical issues in
many different sciences, not only in culturology. Economic cycle
refers to the periodic fluctuations of economic activity about its
long term growth trend. The cycle involves shifts over time between
periods of relatively rapid growth of output (recovery and
prosperity), alternating with periods of relative stagnation or decline
(contraction or recession). There are enough similarities between
economic and social-cultural cycles. So the global financial
crisis is just a part of general socio-cultural crisis. A key question
is whether there are similar mechanisms that generate recessions
and booms that exist in modern civilization so that the dynamics
that appears as a cycle will be seen again and again.
