Abstract: | Thus speaks Fernand Braudel in a memorable introductory text to the History of Mediterranean. In this region, civilization seems to be born from an encounter I clash of cultures. Originally, the concepts of 'human rights' and 'tolerance' developed in this area. And yet in this area there are the most violent clashes between worldviews and between philosophies of life. Nowadays, the Mediterranean represents the crossroads of all the main tensions of the Post-Cold War world but this situation is also the test bed of Western civilization in a time of globalization of human rights themselves. |
