Clash of Civilizations

The “Clash of Civilizations” is a theory proposed by Samuel P. Huntington, suggesting that future conflicts will be based on cultural and religious differences rather than ideological ones.

Key Points

• Cultural Divisions: The theory identifies major world civilizations, like Western, Islamic, and Asian, which may conflict due to differing values and beliefs.
• Illustration: For example, tensions between Western countries and Islamic nations can be seen in conflicts over cultural practices and political ideologies.
• Global Impact: This concept highlights how cultural identities shape international relations and conflict, suggesting that understanding these differences is crucial for global peace.
