| Abstract | Culture is the totality of human experiences acquired, inherited, shared and trasmitted. Human beings are the producers of culture. No culture is absolute, and there is no universal culture because every culture is particular and unique. Yet there are many common elements in cultures. The cultural pluralism of today is caused especially by globalisation, migratory movements and mass media. Cultural pluralism can give rise to prejudice, discrimination, racism, xenophobia, ethnocentrism, ghettoization, denial of human rights, denial of cultural rights, attempt to impose mono-culturalism and cultual conflicts. Three possible approaches to cultural pluralism are: relativistic approach, assimilation approach, and intercultural approach. The last approach is preferred because it alone can genuinely affirm cultural identity and promote intercultural dialogue. |
