The article explores comparative cultural analysis as an effective pedagogical tool for the development of students’ intercultural thinking in the context of globalization and increasing cultural diversity in higher education. It argues that comparative analysis enables a shift from superficial awareness of cultural differences to their reflective and dialogical understanding, fostering critical thinking, intercultural sensitivity, and interpretative competence.
