Contributors originally presented their ideas for this book at the IV International Congress on the Intercultural Philosophy, held in Bangalore, India in September 2001. Participants from Asia, Africa, Europe, and Latin America make the case that only by creating conditions of social justice and equality at the world level can we be guaranteed a free interaction in which cultures, without the fear of being colonized, can accept and promote from within a mutual transformation.
