A CRITIQUE OF THE CLASH OF CIVILIZATIONS

Samuel P. Huntington's article The Clash Of Civilizations was a rare foresight in the time it was written. One must agree that his analytical skills have proven him mostly right, up to this point. Even though his warnings on this clash of civilizations has not been taken into account by the western - especially the most dominant of them the USA - powers and have deepened hatred among the different values (and even managed to create a barrier among the so called same values as well). The conflicts listed in 1993 are thus almost all relevant. The article supports its thesis that the new world order of a dominant western value will end up against the rest of the world for many reasons; He names six. To begin with "Civilizations are differentiated from each other by history, language, culture, tradition, and religion." In fact that is true and it has been that way for centuries. He goes on to say that "the world is becoming a smaller place thus the interactions are more frequent and exposed mostly by the wealthy; the west." Everywhere one goes today around the world he/she is faced with western and more precisely American influence. Thus, spreading and exposing younger generations with these popular values. It also brings the realit


Nevertheless it still has a long way to go and at the same time make religion a non political matter and consider it as a persons own business. The ideologies they faced day in day out vanished and left it for the reemerging religiousness to take this role. y of other cultures closer to the west through those who choose it to over their own country. With minimal knowledge of history today one can predict that civilizations will clash in the future. The world hasa grown from a regional to a universal perspective where the previous system was able to join together. Idealistic? Maybe, but who would have thought of an African or European Union sixty years ago?In a sort of a conclusion I have to state that divisions along cultural lines have always existed and are rooted in every nation's history. I question that notion by saying that it is in the organization's interest to first care for those around it who are the closest neighbors and "modernize" or accept them into their club. To achieve the interest it doesn't matter if one for example is Arab or Catholic as peace is peace on both sides. The same religiousness that was oppressed and forced out by mainly the east and its allies. Huntington states that one must have the same the culture (or common civilization) to become a member of a regional organization. The final point raised the author states "economic regionalism is increasing" is probably the most controversial statement of the whole article. The prospects are good - and even Mr. Huntington can not deny it - unless one were to stick with the out of date fact that clash of civilizations will prevail and it is not worth tending for.
