This book contributes to the current knowledge and research on
conflict and cross-cultural dialogue, emphasizing how respect,
tolerance and dialogue may be quite effective tools for bridging
the diverse cultures and, consequently, for solving many of the
conflicts of today's world, characterized by a dynamic interchange
of populations with very diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds.
For this purpose, we rely on reputed scholars from ten different
countries, and from different cultures and fields of expertise,
which allows for diverse contributions from a valuable
interdisciplinary perspective. The first section of the book deals
with the correlation between cultural differences and conflict,
while also showing how such conflicts can be prevented and, should
they arise, managed and solved. The second section addresses a
different, more specific issue: how cultural expression means and
tools for cultural communication may lead to conflict whereas they
may help to avoid it as well. Finally, the third section analyzes
how legal and justice systems deal with cross-cultural conflicts as
well as with situations which may lead to cross-cultural conflicts,
thus assessing to which extent such systems contribute to avoid
and/or solve such kind of conflicts.
