Abstract

The article focuses on the comprehension of topical issues of the inclusion formation as a universal of modern culture. The work demonstrates the need to overcome the narrowness of the entrenched understanding of in-clusion as the practice of overcoming discrimination against people with health deficits. A wide range of inclu-sive initiatives has been identified, revealing the potential of inclusion as a universal culture in various spheres of society. The current interpretation of inclusive development and the principles of its implementation are pre-sented. It reveals a wide corridor of opportunities for the implementation of inclusive initiatives on the example of the unions of countries that are key partners of modern Russia – BRICS, EAEU. The specifics of the repre-sentation of inclusive transformations in modern Russian practice are revealed, their anthroposocio-cultural nature is indicated. The main value of the phenomenon under study is formulated, including the desire of an individual to be part of an inclusive community, to understand and accept the Other. The importance of inclu-sion in the social life of all members of the community, overcoming persistent discriminatory practices, is ana-lyzed. The necessity of actualization of the correlation of human freedom and responsibility, implemented through the institution of individual rights and responsibilities in the context of the deployment of inclusive initia-tives, is revealed.
