After his famous book « the clash of civilization » which has been under study and comments during the last 8 years, inspiring even the think-tank of the neo-conservatism in the white house, Samuel Huntington tries again to catch more light on the spots with a new provocative book about “The clash of cultures ». This latter is an essai from Huntignton about the “cultural Choc” of the Spaniard community in the US, formed mainly by Mexicains, and the problems of their “cultural integration” into the US society.Despite his new book is talking specifically about communities living in the US, the ideas depicted within his essay are easily exported to Europe where the discussions about the integration of Muslims immigrants is still a daily preferred theme for Editorials under different headlines: Talking about the integration of Muslims in French, and the Abolition of the “Parallel Societies” In Germany…etcWith all this clashes of cultures and religions: "Clash of cultures", "clash of civilizations", "clash of religions"...etc, one body can here mention the answer of the Edward Said who refuted and rejected Huntington’s thesis in a long article under a very significant title: " The Clash of Ignorance"!Links:Edward Said “Clash of Ignorance” article: http://www.thenation.com/doc.mhtml?i=20011022&c=1&s=said S.
