Under the conditions of the accelerated development of Russian economics, commercial sector and due to a great number of international private companies we can see the intensified problem of tolerance of future diplomats, international specialists, regarding to the system, its the main components such as political, economic, military. It is supposed, that in the modern student environment of future diplomats we can notice the exaltation of values of individual pragmatism and increasing the lack of sociality by deciding of questions about their present and future professional activity. Sociological researches carried out among the students of faculty of international affairs in 2002, 2007 and 2012 review different factors of professional and communicative tolerance. The author of this article markes and diagnoses the materially - pragmatic and art-substantial values of the chosen profession and it's given an interpretation of value orientations content on the categories of employment after the university graduation. Students' estimations define the personal competents of government employee, which are necessary for the successful carrier in the system of MFA of Russia. The interpretation and the real content of communicative tolerance levels are reviewed in the article. The ethnic component of communicative tolerance is studied separately. In conclusion of the article we can define the role of material differentiation of students in the context of communicative tolerance. According to the analyse it is confuted the initial supposition about the glorification of individual pragmatic values and shortage of social responsibility in the student environment. It was found out, that in the communicative tolerance the level of empathy in the personal contact is keeping to be prevalent and stable according to different years of survey. However, it is deduced, the occurred for 10 years the growth of students material welfare didn't contribute to the growth of communicative tolerance. On the whole, data analysis for 10 years of monitoring shows, that the balance of tolerant and intolerant factors regarding the selected profession and communicative practices is keeping to be the same in the student environment.

The author emphasizes that acculturation problems related to intercultural communication have not only domestic but also international dimension. The article presents the theory and methodology of acculturation problems at different stages ofdevelopment of foreign and domestic scholars (specialists in cultural studies, ethnographers, ethnosociologists) and specifies the defference between the concepts of acculturation and assimilation of national and regional cultures.

The article considers new tasks of universities and faculties training students of international relations. The author analyzes the essence of the concept "paradigm" in education because paradigm serves as the basis of the educational process in universities. The content of professional education depends on the aims of professional education of specialists in international relations. The process of globalization, global changes, challenges and threats bring about the necessity to study specific features of international cooperation in ecology, psychology of conflict, psychology of leadership, etc. In the age of globalization, national economies are converging while national cultures are diverging. Representatives of different nations realize the importance of preserving cultural identity. It is of vital importance to instil tolerance in future specialists in international relations and prepare them for cross-cultural communication. At the same time, it is necessary that they should not only enjoy individual freedom and national cultural identity, but realize their own responsibility to the state. In the modern world, the axiological and educational functions of professional training are growing. At the same time, it is crucial to let the students build a number of professionally relevant competences that will make it possible for them to effectively perform their professional functions. It is the competence-based approach that makes the basis of Federal state education standards, including education standards for faculties of international relations. Another direction that needs developing is training and retraining lecturers for universities specializing in international relations. Foreign language training of lecturers in basic subjects will make it possible for the, to give lectures in foreign languages, particularly in English, which, in its turn, will help to make Russia's universities more competitive.

Abstract: Over the last decade the federal government and each of the ten provincial governments in Canada have put in place in their administrations significant numbers of intergovernmental relations specialists. These specialists are public servants up to departmental head level who work solely on intergovernmental business. They are located in separate departments or as separate units within central agencies, and are responsible for the coordination of relations with other governments and of intergovernmental activities within their own government. Coming at a time of increasing intergovernmental tension within the Canadian federation, these specialists have been subject to a great deal of criticism. The critics have charged that the specialists have exacerbated and even produced intergovernmental conflict. Lately, some scholars have come to their defence, emphasizing the positive functions that the specialists perform, and arguing that their influence has, in any case, been exaggerated. Australia has its own relatively small number of intergovernmental relations specialists at both the federal and state levels. And it is possible that in the future additional positions will be created. The variety of the Canadian experience means that there are a number of models from which each Australian government, of whatever size, can learn.
