CIVILIZATION AND BARBARRY COEXISTENCE ISSUE: MILITARY ASPECT

Abstract

This work is devoted to the socio-philosophical analysis of the military confrontation between civilized and barbaric societies. The authors examine antique and ancient Chinese ideas about the phenomenon of barbarism, and also highlight common cultural features inherent in the Germans and Celts and opposed to Rome, and the Far Eastern nomads who were adjacent to imperial China. Having analyzed the military potential of civilized societies, the authors come to the conclusion that the victory of barbarism is possible only in the case of civilization internal collapse.
