تصورات الدين و الثقافة و العولمة : تبريرا للحوار أو للقطيعة بين الشعوب

الملخص EN

Examining two schools of thought surrounding the concepts of religion, culture, and globalization, Ghammari investigates the differing standpoints between those who idealize these concepts and those who remain cautious of them.

In the author’s opinion, these three concepts represent fundamental precepts to an international discussion that seeks to understand the current intellectual discourses taking place in modern times.

To this end, the study takes a critical, rationalist approach to this investigation in the hope of providing an objective assessment of the opportunities for dialogue between cultures and civilizations in an era dominated by economic and ideological considerations – a dominance that has transformed religion, globalization, and culture into the mere promotion of private and personal interests.

Throughout his analysis, Ghammari highlights the ways in which religion, culture, and globalization can cause division, often leading to tragic conflicts between world communities, while also forming the backbone of dialogue and understanding between societies.

His analysis leads him to conclude that, as it stands, the current climate indicates that religion, culture, and globalization are inciting more division than dialogue.
