INTERCULTURAL CONSCIOUSNES AND THE CONSTRUCTION …
1 INTERCULTURAL CONSCIOUSNES AND THE CONSTRUCTION OF CITIZENSHIP Milton J. Bennett, Presentation for CFC/FSEA Conference, The Formation of Sustainable Citizenship Monte Carasso, Switzerland February 5, 2015 The issue of citizenship for our time is how to reconcile unity and diversity. By unity, I mean the commonality of purpose that allows groups to compete and survive in their environments. By diversity, I mean the variety of ways that human beings have devised to attain that commonality of purpose. As in our past, we humans continue to seek unity at the expense of diversity, since we cannot easily conceive of how commonality of purpose could be maintained in diverse ways. Underlying our inability to reconcile unity and diversity is the ethical dilemma of relativism. One aspect of relativism is the fact that groups of human beings organize themselves in different ways they operate in different contexts. We can refer to those contexts as cultures thus the term, cultural relativism or more generally, diversity.
