Document Summary
History is not over, but may repeat itself. There is no clash of civilizaions, but a clash of interests: its all about poliics: extremes vs. the mainstream, a rich history of collaboraion and mutual learning that we forget. The paradox of globalizaion: the challenges it poses might lead to more inclusive change. Whether we like it or not, we"re in it together. Asymmetry and dependency the same, the change in collecivity to raise each other up. Human rights and knowing the other : greater respect for each other. Who we are and how we see ourselves: or see other people, part of the de-colonial perspecive. The idenity approach: respect for the other . Based on self understanding of other people. Clash of civilizaions label relects understanding: post-marxist. Based on religion, etc: non-market raionaliies. Idenity formaion and the process of collecive acion: non-negoiable demands. When and how do they become poliicized: as ethnic groups, determines impact on broader poliical processes.
