Abstract
The urgency of the problem under study lies in the fact that the problems of intercultural communication of the peoples of Russia, which were on the agenda during the ХIХth - early XXth centuries, did not lose their relevance in the 21st century.
The Volga-Ural region with its multinational and multi-confessional population is of special interest in this respect. The article reveals the significance of the cultural and historical experience of Islamic and Christian culture interaction in the Volga region and the Urals as the most important basis for the development of tolerant relations and the confirmation of the dialogue of cultures at the present stage. It is also stressed that intercultural exchange is the best way to harmonize ethnic-confessional relations.
Attention is paid to the theory of intercultural dialogue by N.S. Trubetskoy. The fruitfulness of Trubetskoy's ideas for the development of intercultural dialogue ideas is marked by modern scientists and politicians. The purpose of the article is to show the development of interethnic and interconfessional dialogue of the Volga-Ural region peoples in the process of communication at the household level and in the sphere of education.peer-reviewe
