Abstract

The article examines aspects of the philosophy of cultural tourism and the directions of its development in relation to the ideological value system of modern society. At the same time, we set ourselves the goal of analyzing the features of the philosophy of tourism in the modern system of intercultural communication, problematic development processes, its essence, ideological attitudes, traditional national systems from a modern point of view. The philosophy of modern cultural tourism is associated with the existence of a national worldview in Kazakh society - one of the components of the system of historical and philosophical, cultural and philosophical values. Because it reflects the rich history and originality of the worldview of the people in the process of scientific and philosophical knowledge and national and ideological quests. Based on a review of scientific research, an attempt was made to explain aspects of the philosophy of tourism and the essence of current key problems from the point of view of the laws and principles of dialectics. Thus, in the article, the philosophical aspects of tourism are considered as one of the key theoretical categories of intercultural communication. Since tourism holds a special value in modern intercultural communication, its philosophical comprehension and critical assessment may present certain challenges. This is due to the fact that the act of stepping beyond the boundaries of one’s habitual lifestyle in tourism – whether in physical, geographical, social, cultural, religious, spiritual, or any other travel-related needs – is primarily interpreted within the economic paradigms of labor value theory and marginal utility theory. Therefore, to account for these paradigmatic differences, the article highlights the importance of analyzing and evaluating the views, ideas, and theories of scholars engaged in research in the field of tourism studies.

Keywords: philosophy of tourism, cultural values, intercultural communication, concept of cultural tourism, tourism industry.
