Anthology from the year 2010 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, course: Intercultural Management, language: English, abstract: Transculturalism is the complementary aspect of interculturalism.

Scientific Essay from the year 2010 in the subject Cultural Studies - Miscellaneous, language: English, abstract: If one analyzes the past, one notes that, for thousands of years, the same roundabout has been going on and perpetuating itself over centuries and millennia; the same cycles at the individual and the diverse social levels are enacted across time, space and cultures, albeit with culture-contingent nuances - as though that was the only way of being.

Scholarly Essay from the year 2010 in the subject Cultural Studies - Miscellaneous, course: Kulturanthropologie, language: English, abstract: In this heading a twofold monumental assumption is hidden: Supreme intelligence can be equated to true cultural enlightenment.

Scientific Essay from the year 2010 in the subject Cultural Studies - Miscellaneous, language: English, abstract: Cultural identification sets in motion cycles of competitive identifications, self-perpetuating dualistic endless loops, which depending on their intensity, may escalate into major conflict unless the waves or the cultural identification and affirmation can subside. Once the cycles of waves are set in motion they assume a dynamic of their own beyond human control. That is how conflicts surge cyclically, which get out of hands once cycles have been set in motion through the over...

Scientific Essay from the year 2010 in the subject Cultural Studies - Basics and Definitions, course: Interkulturelles Management, language: English, abstract: The 'labouring' of cultures, nations and religions is symptomatic of the whole of creation's gravitation towards unity.

The singularities of diversity are bound for a singular unity. The integration of the universe of universes will reveal the...
