Venice-Delhi Seminars<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cultural differences in times of economic turbulence. Social tensions, cultural conflicts and policies of integration in Europe and India<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

A Reset-Dialogues on Civilizations project, in cooperation with Fondazione Giorgio Cini, University of Padua, Jamia Millia Islamia and Seminar<\/p>\n

The association Reset-Dialogues on Civilizations is promoting the Venice-Delhi Seminars<\/em>, which will be held next autumn in Venice, Italy. This three day conference, organized in partnership with the Venice-based Giorgio Cini Foundation<\/em>, the University of Padua<\/em>, the magazine Seminar<\/em>, the India Habitat Centre<\/em> and the Jamia Millia Islamia University<\/em>, will be \u2013 after a conference already held in India in October 2010 (see Seminar<\/em> 621, 2011<\/a>) \u2013 the first of a series of regular appointments to be held twice a year, in Venice and Delhi.<\/p>\n

The overall subject addressed by this project will be Cultural Pluralism<\/strong>. Hence, the Venice-Delhi project aims to be an exceptional opportunity for an intellectual and intercultural exchange of knowledge between East and West, offering in-depth analyses of political, social and economic trends in societies \u2013 like the Indian and, increasingly, the European one \u2013 where cultural, ethnic and religious differences coexist. Leading scholars from India, Europe and the United States will attend the conference.<\/p>\n

The Reset-Dialogues on Civilizations project has also been planned to involve a significant number of students<\/strong>, graduates and PhDs who will, at the end of the conference, receive a certificate of participation, and, after a selection made by the scientific committee based on their curricula, a financial incentive to help with travel and accommodation expenses, as well as the possibility of obtaining university credits.<\/p>\n

Next October the Venice-Delhi Seminars will, on one hand, analyze the challenge that cultural differences and composite growing minorities are presenting to European democracies in times of financial turbulence, and on the other, Indian society\u2019s intense pluralist experience during this phase of extremely rapid growth, while still dealing with dramatic poverty and acute inequality. As far as Europe is concerned, papers will concentrate on social tension, cultural conflict and the problems posed by the integration of migrants in these current critical times. Indians will analyze issues linked to poverty, inequality and ethnic-cultural differences (tribes, castes, denominational and racial conflict). A roundtable will be dedicated to public policies<\/strong> and attended by experts in this sector.<\/p>\n
