CHOC DES CIVILISATIONS OU CHOC DES IGNORANCES ? REGARDS CROISÉS. LE "MALENTENDU PRODUCTIF" DANS L’ŒUVRE D’AMARA LAKHOUS

Abstract

The second part is intended to be a "plea" in favor of taking into account misunderstandings in an intercultural context. We will show that misunderstandings are present in any intercultural situation and can prove to be provocative in the good sense of the word. Finally, intercultural dialogue has become an absolute need to dispel misunderstandings and strengthen the weakened bonds of the human family. We will therefore evoke the concept of "productive misunderstanding" by Marshall Sahlins, through our corpus, as being a first exercise towards intercultural dialogue.
