ANNEX 4 Failing Currencies, Recriminations, Who's to
Blame? Intercultural Dialogue They can be tackled only through intercultural dialogue. Such a dialogue, in order to be useful, must be based on a shared, deep mutual respect. This means that we give others the benefit of the doubt, even on very vital questions on which we differ. We must, in all honesty, accept all that we can of each other's position. Nowadays, most of us live in a multicultural society or in societies that are rapidly acquiring a multicultural character. There are none that do not suffer from serious inter-cultural collisions. We can surmount these defects only through mutual respect and by bringing back, as much as is still possible, the technologically and economically driven process of globalization to the realm of democratic, public, political decision making. |
