This article the phenomenon of civilization in the aspect of relevant ideas of modern philosophy has been investigated. The difference between the terms “culture” and “civilization” which consists in the fact that civilization is a qualitatively developed phenomenon, and culture is the basis, the values and attitudes of which form and determine the development of civilization has been analyzed. The identification of the ontological foundations of civilization reveals various dimensions of this phenomenon: charisma; call and answer theory; an idea requiring self-realization; the will of the Creator, etc.The emergence and development of civilization provide for the existence of dialectical processes of a change in historical phases under which the action of the deep potentials of culture is guessed.
