Summary/Abstract: This article examines the phenomenon of cultural identity from the standpoint of the Neo-Kantian doctrine of Heinrich Rickert. Rickert’s philosophy of values is presented as an attempt to combine consistently transcendentalism and historism. The author seeks to show Rickert’s theory of cultural values in comparison with Kant’s philosophy, Dilthey and Simmel’s philosophy of life, and the views of Max Weber. Understanding of this historical and philosophical context, in which Rickert’s doctrine was formed, helps to evaluate the heuristic potential of his ideas. The author believes that this potential is not yet exhausted and may serve as a source of overcoming the crisis of modern Western cultural policy.
