The article refers to the phenomenon of intercultural dialog understood as a constitutive factor in the process of integrative development of polyethnic societies. The analysis is based on the author’s research dedicated to the ethnic diversity of the Ukrainian society. The author underlines the importance of intercultural dialogue for the theory and practices of everyday life of all countries (especially multiethnic and multicultural). He also stresses the need to study intercultural dialogue on several levels and also by applying the methods of many social and human sciences. Besides, he points out the necessity for this kind of dialogue to be based on the principles like respecting the human rights, building democracy, the Rule of Law, equality (ethnic, racial, and gender), dignity, mutual respect and partnership.
