Summary/Abstract: Any attempt at cultural hegemony threatens global democratic development. The modern world faces Huntington's apocalyptic prediction that the clashes between cultures will become the future front lines of global politics. History is indeed filled with such clashes, while examples of cooperation are few and far between. Intercultural dialogue has always been the primary countermeasure, but it has proven inefficient. Cultural conflicts are persistent and therefore difficult to manage.
