Filozofia wobec zderzeń cywilizacji
Philosophy Towards Clashes of Civilizations

Summary/Abstract: The multitude of civilizations comes from the multitude of methods, principles and goals that human societies set themselves. These methods, principles and goals may be so different that they influence not only the emergence of different civilizations, but also the fact that these civilizations will remain in conflict with each other, sometimes even in an open war. The solution is not to create a single world civilization, because civilizational diversity is a historical value through which nations mature and come to self-awareness. Rather, we should look for non-civilization criteria, which are provided by classical philosophy. It grows out of a realistic concept of being and personalistic concept of the person, and allows civilizations to confront each other by means of dialogue, which is based on the three classic values of truth, goodness and beauty.
