Clash of Civilizations-Your Views-Are really in a us versus them scenario?

[PakShah]

I'm surprised this topic has never been discussed! But anyways.

This sort of has a connection with the Asian Union Theory.

Basically the Clash of Civilization theory, is that people's cultural and religious identities will be the primary source of conflict in the post-Cold War world according to Samuel P Huntington.

Do you Agree or Disagree?

A map of civilizations, based on Huntington's "Clash of Civilizations". Western (dark blue), Latin (purple), Japanese (bright red), Sinic (dark red), Hindu (orange), Islamic (green), Orthodox (medium-light blue), African (Brown), Buddhist (yellow). Other colors should indicate (light green, turquoise) the cultural fault lines where the clash of civilizations will occur. Note on the Eastern European level; Transylvania (from Romania), Western Ukraine, northern Serbia and others are in the "Western world" according to the original work of Huntington.


I copied this stuff from wikipedia with slight modifications.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Relating with Asian Union Theory, a Asian Union will not be like "EU", but and Asian Union would be more like the Islamic civilization, Chinese civilization, Indian civilization, and Buddhist civilization and Russia working together against the West.


The Latin American civilization, African civilization, Japanese civilization, and other civilizations are "swing" civilizations siding with whoever suits their interests best.

This is what could happen if Asian Union Theory is practiced.

Since Asian Union Theory is not practiced, instead it is Indian civilization, Russia, and Latin American civilization that are the swing civilizations.


What are your views?

My opinion world union.

 

[Huan]

My opinion world union.

For that kind of unification, you need the most advanced and biggest navy, airforce, and army in the world with weapon systems capable of disabling all enemy nuclear warheads.

 

[harshad]

No no no......

I am not saying my country want to capture all this land, i am just saying that all countries of the world become united and when i say united it means that they will remain different countries as they are right now, but they will just form a union (world union) they will stop fighting with each other and solve their disputes peacefully.

India will be a neutral country in clash of civilization.

 

[kawaraj]

the point is not paying attention to the detail such as the diversity of Islamic world, or isolated Chinese or Indian culture.

the point is the leading culture, the west is doing everything guarding their interest as a leading bloc, in exchange of the loss of other cultures. clearly enough this is a zero sum game.

so the point is, how the rest of the world united and tackle all the hassles posed by the west.

 

[Urbanized Greyhound]

Civilizations have always had frictions between them throughout history. There doesn't seem to be any potential for super-clash resulting in consequences , especially in this era-as Samuel P Huntington seems to believe.

 

[raje]

my point is no more war plz ,we have greater issues then religion and western politics we have real bad people among us and deep in our society who manage to divert our attention from real issue to the hate politics

I don't know how easily people neglect Islamic Civilization which ruled over the World for 1300 years.

Nationalism is forbidden in Islam.

i dont know what islam you talking about read the incscription in a mosque in bejing it say nation is my first religion jinha was a nationalist he was cheated by neru thou , iqbal the famous poet was a nationalist even the rulers muguals or anyone else were regional they prefered centeral asian and arabs over indian muslims and called us hindus in their court instead a hindu king chh shivaji maharaj was supported by muslims he had muslim sardars of indian origin and his army consisted of 30% muslim solider and that was all because of national feeling
