Intercultural dialogue, education and research

Abstract

Talking about culture represents an enormous challenge. The very definition of the concept leads us to ask ourselves what people think of when they speak of it and, at the same time, which elements we can exclude from the definitions that are farthest removed from the plane of validity. However, this question is made easier when we start from the idea that man is, above all, a being with a sociocultural dimension that is rooted, in time and space, to a set of manifestations and expressions that reflect his way of seeing the world, his way of facing life and his very particular values.
