The impact of different cultural types on human beings

The paper examines the fundamental cultural types (culture of the individual, family, group, ethnic, national, world culture) that influence the formation of a human's attitudes. An attempt is made to distinguish the conceptual field, the definitions of cultural spheres, which is currently a very important task for a number of social sciences and humanities. Scholarly experience in interpreting conceptual definitions of cultural types is described, with an emphasis on their functional anchoring. The mechanism of interaction between spheres of cultural impact on each other is examined, describing the specificity of the impact of certain cultural types on other ones. The specificity of the impact of cultural types on the human being and possible ways of assessing it are concluded. Altogether, it has been pointed out that all the cultural types considered have a simultaneous impact on the human being, thus being complementary elements of a coherent system for each other.
