The author argues that the most important for the interethnic communication is etiquette, which is the language of communication and allows partners to take roles in all situations according to their gender, age, social status. The modern stage of development of anthropological models, in which the person is represented as the subject of the ethnic group, and as a biological type involves the integration of knowledge of the social and biological sciences. The Ukrainian national character, national traditions are based on principles such as diligence, responsibility for economic support of the economy, for the family welfare. Ukrainians have developed a tradition of collective labour mutual aid. Moral and spiritual perfection of an individual is organically combined with the physical health of the person. The anthropological approach helps to understand the problem as a holistic phenomenon. Revealing the anthropological foundations of modern pedagogy emphasizes that the main characteristic of modern education is the relationship between two main traditions: sociocultural and natural. In the article it is proved that educational activities need to take into account the ethnic and regional characteristics, customs and rules of etiquette of the carriers of different cultures, mentalities and traditions.
