Division of Cultural Policies and International Dialogue, 2005Descripción: 169 pResumen: The respect for cultural diversity, challenged by globalization at present, is a direct consequence of the reflection on the process of modernization. This process can be studied from its historical manifestations, and particularly since the nineteenth century. Cultural diversity, which enables us to consider modernization in a new light, has forcefully erupted on the contemporary scene generating a sort of “cultural panic”, conducive to “returning to one’s roots” at the risk of proliferating various forms of fundamentalism. However, cultural diversity can also be seen as an opportunity for fertile dialogue and unprecedented access to the world’s cultural richness. To take full advantage of this richness, it has become necessary to make a firm commitment in favour of intercultural dialogue. Such dialogue must take into account not only the historical roots of each culture but also an updated analysis of the past and present aspirations of individuals and groups. Conceived to promote dialogue between the Arab world and Japan, the symposium on “Cultural Diversity and Globalization: the Arab-Japanese Experience, a Cross-Regional Dialogue”, provided a framework for fruitful exchanges in order to highlight the shared experiences between two regions apparently worlds apart culturally and geographically but historically comparable. Thus, the principal objective of the symposium was to identify modernization in terms of openness towards other cultures and as a unifying process bringing together people from two distinctive cultures. Indeed, it was this modernization process that shaped fundamental evolutions − sometimes convergent, sometimes divergent − in Japan as well as in the Arab world. In both cases, modernization has been analysed as a process of “critical receptiveness” towards inputs from different cultures. The modus operandi of this process − success, failures or conflicts − were examined with a view to highlighting exogenous and endogenous limitations and to identifying material and symbolic obstacles.
