FEATURES OF UNDERSTANDING IN NON-STANDARD SITUATIONS OF COMMUNICATION

Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of understanding in modern non-standard situations, such as the situation of virtual reality of the computer game. The author seeks to consider non-standard situations faced by people in the modern world. For example, conflict situations, virtual game situations, or virtual communication situations. The author presents the understanding not only as conditioned by a certain context or historical situation (the philosophical hermeneutics of H. Gadamer [1]), but also depending on the global problems of modernity. Globalization of the modern world has brought to the forefront the awareness of human involvement in world crises, in every country of the world. The author concludes that the situation of understanding has changed. It requires a faster and clearer response and more active understanding of the challenges of the world. Often, virtual communication replaces the real dialogue. Together with the situation of understanding, the tools and methods used by modern researchers are changing too. However, one of the most powerful means of understanding remains the researcher's interest in the subject. It is the interest, which pushes to ask the unknown, to start discovering new things. The researcher's interest and imagination help him in unusual situations of understanding.
