Abstract: The present study is highly interdisciplinary in character. It consists of insights from different disciplines and draws its common legacy from a variety of epistemological approaches that are originated in the humanities, social sciences, as well as in the different philosophical schools of thought such as analytical philosophy and phenomenology and intends to comprehend the notions of cultural conflict and social harmony from a critical-creative perspective in order to determine the place of the human subject in a given cultural tradition. newline newlineTo find out the socio-economic and cultural conditions that foster social conflicts. Culture transfer is a transfer of certain institutions, education institutions, and cultural goods such as science and art which has been only partially taken place in the colonization process. Cultural ideals, life forms and cultural ambience can be transferred, but it is not yet clear how far globalization processes will be successful in this area. For many years culture transfer was based on the ideology of the western cultural superiority. newline newlineAnother specific purport of this project is to inquire whether cultural groups can newlineact as agents of profound transformation. Culture was regarded as an object which was supposed to be revolutionized. Can culture now invert this position: from the position of object, can it become a subject and act as a transformative principle in the international world order? Another important specific intention of the present project is to answer to the question as to how cultural identity be elevated to a new theoretical value which would justify a new international set of rights and a new cultural model? newline
