1. The document summarizes Samuel Huntington's "Clash of Civilizations" theory which argues that after the Cold War, cultural and religious identities will be the primary sources of global conflict, with the major divisions occurring between civilizations like Western, Islamic, and Sinic.
2. Huntington believed that while ideology was no longer driving global politics, cultural conflicts would replace ideological conflicts as the major lines of division. He argued the primary axis of future conflicts would be along cultural and religious lines between civilizations.
3. The document provides context on Huntington's theory and outlines some of the major civilizations he defined, while also noting criticism that his view was too simplistic and ignored other important drivers of conflict
A thorough analysis on Samuel P. Huntington's, Clash of Civilizations. The presentation starts with some basic information on the writer, the nature and history of civilizations as well as the basic reasons of their conflict. It continues with presenting and criticizing specific topics imposed by the writer and ends with our own ideas and implications based on the work of Samuel P. Huntington.
With the coming of the new millenuim, the entire world has entered the globalized age, which is characterized by the US global power leading the world after the fall of the ex- USSR. The emergence of globaization rose several questions about the role of the US: Is it acting in favor preserving the world cultures, or trying to model the world according to the US Western and liberal values? This; in fact, has paved the way to rise of such theories, expliaing that the US has enetered a new phase of conflict which is basically cutural in order to survive and promote its cultural values.

The presentation is on neoliberalism in international relations. The emergence of neoliberalism and convergence and difference of neoliberalism and structural realism as well as barriers to international cooperation is presented.
International relations as a practice of interaction among states, and among state and non-state actors are thousands of years old
However, International Relations (IR) as an academic discipline studying these relations emerged as a specialized field after WW1.
Like every other academic discipline, International Relations (IR) has developed its own distinctive subject matter since its emergence
This presentation explains the scope and the subject matter of IR with the help of its five pillars- Aim, Actors, Agenda, Arena, and Actions
Peace of Westphalia (1648) not only created the modern nation-state system in Europe but also stipulated the basic rules of statecraft.
Despite all the criticisms, the concept of state and nation took firm roots in most parts of the world, thanks to colonialism.
However, it is now facing existential challenges from different sources
This presentation is all about the modern nation-state system, its origin, essential elements, challenges it is facing, & its future prospects
Feminism emerged as a movement and body of ideas that aimed to enhance women’s status and power. Simply put, feminism affirms women’s equality with men, and rejects patriarchy.
The issue of world order is central to an understanding of international politics. The shape of world order affects both the level of stability within the global system and the balance within it between conflict and cooperation. However, since the end of the Cold War, the nature of world order has been the subject of significant debate and disagreement. Early proclamations of the establishment of a 'new world order', characterized by peace and international cooperation, were soon replaced by talk of unipolar world order, with the USA taking centre stage as the world's sole superpower. This 'unipolar moment' may nevertheless have been brief. Not only did the USA's involvement in difficult and protracted counter-insurgency wars following September 11 strengthen the impression of US decline, but emerging powers, notably China, started to exert greater influence on the world stage. The notion that unipolarity is giving way to multipolarity has, moreover, been supported by evidence of the increasing importance of international organizations, a trend that is sometimes interpreted as emerging 'global governance'. Of particular importance in this respect have been the major institutions of global economic governance – the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank and the World Trade Organization – and the centrepiece of the global governance system, the United Nations. Although some argue that the trend in favour of global governance reflects the fact that, in an interdependent world, states must act together to address the challenges that confront them, others dismiss global governance as a myth and raise serious questions about the effectiveness of international organizations.

An overview of the macro trend of New World Order. Is the old adage of "America sneezes the rest of the world catches a cold" still current? In this New World Order where power increasingly resides with Brazil, China and India how are people responding and what are the consequences for brands?
1). In The Sources of Soviet Conduct George Kennan (under the al.docxNarcisaBrandenburg70
1).
In "The Sources of Soviet Conduct" George Kennan (under the alias "X") argues that the United States was fundamentally challenged as a nation-state by the Soviet Union. In trying to account for Soviet conduct, Kennan says a lot about the nature of the United States and its role in the world. Indeed, at the end of the essay he implies that the U.S. holds a moral and political leadership over the rest of the world. Kennan's view of the U.S. is both popular within U.S. politics and as relevant today as it was in the 1947. What can we draw from Kennan to better understand the U.S. role in the world today; and what elements of Kennan's analysis pose challenges to global governance?
2). "
As we face up to the costs both of fundamentalist terrorism and of fighting it, must we not ask ourselves how it is that when we see religion colonize every other realm of human life we call it theocracy and turn up our noses at the odor of tyranny; and when we see politics colonize every other realm of human life we call it absolutism and tremble at the prospect of totalitarianism; but when we see market relations and commercial consumerism try to colonize every other realm of human life we call it liberty and celebrate its triumph? There are too many John Walkers who begin by seeking a refuge from the aggressive secularist materialism of their suburban lives and end up slipping into someone else’s dark conspiracy to rid the earth of materialism’s infidels. If such men are impoverished and without hope as well, they become prime recruits for jihad."
First, does a market based society alienate those marginalized from it; and if so, then is this a sufficient condition to foment terrorism, whether based on Islam or more domestic variants found in the U.S.?
3). Huntington writes, "It is my hypothesis that the fundamental source of conflict in this new world will not be primarily ideological or primarily economic. The great divisions among humankind and the dominating source of conflict will be cultural. Nation states will remain the most powerflil actors in world affairs, but the principal conflicts of global politics will occur between nations and groups of different civilizations. The clash of civilizations will dominate global politics. The fault lines between civilizations will be the battle lines of the future."
Do you agree with Huntington's hypothesis? Why or why not?

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

2. Introduction
Overview
Definition and its meanings
Three attributes of clash of civilization
Main Theory of clash of civilizations
Reasons for the clash of civilizations
Islam vs. Western civilizations
Conclusion
3. The Clash of Civilizations (COC) is a hypothesis
that people's cultural and religious identities will
be the primary source of conflict in the post-
Cold War world. It was proposed by political
scientist Samuel P. Huntington in a 1992
lecture at the American Enterprise Institute,
which was then developed in a 1993 Foreign
Affairs article titled "The Clash of
Civilizations?", in response to his former
student Francis Fukuyama's 1992 book, The End
of History and the Last Man. Huntington later
expanded his thesis in a 1996 book The Clash of
Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order.
4. Huntington began his thinking by surveying the
diverse theories about the nature of global politics in
post-cold war world period. Some theorists and
writers argued that human sights, liberal democracy
and capitalist free market economy had become the
only remaining ideological alternative for nations in
the post-cold war world. Specifically Francis
Fukuyama argued that the world had reached the
‘end of history’ in Hegelian sense.
Huntington believed that while the age of ideology
had ended, the world had only reverted to a normal
state of affairs characterized by cultural conflict. In
this thesis he argued that “the primary axis in the
future will be along cultural and religion lines”.
5. An advanced state of human society, in which a high level of
culture, science, industry, and government has been reached.
Civilization entered the English language in the mid-18th century
with the meaning “the act or process of bringing out of a savage
or uneducated state.”
Origin from Latin word civilis-citizen.
Civilization is a cultural entity defined by objective elements
such as language, history and religion etc whereas Clash of
Civilization is a clash of cultural spheres within a single global
civilization.
Differences among civilizations are real and basic:
As mentioned before, civilizations are differentiated in terms of
history, language, culture, tradition & religion. These
differences are products of centuries, which are too fundamental
that cannot be changed easily. Unlike political ideologies,
civilization has been built deep inside our minds and will not vary
according to time. This is the main reason why Huntington
believed that if there was a future war, the ultimate cause
behind it would probably be the differences among civilizations.
6. In the 1993 foreign affairs article, Huntington
writes:
“It is my hypothesis that the fundamental
source of conflict in this new world will not be
primarily ideological or primarily economic.
The great division among humankind and the
dominating source of conflict will be cultural.
Nation states will remain the most powerful
actors in world affairs, but the principle
conflicts of global politics will occur between
nations and groups of different civilizations.
The Clash of civilizations will dominant global
politics. The fault lines between civilizations
will be the battle lines of future.”
7. Objective elements include language,
history, religion, customs, institutions
Subjective elements include variable levels
of self-identification
Civilizations are dynamic; they rise and fall,
divide and merge
8. 1.“The Clash of Civilizations?” that still has a
question mark to it) is a very narrow, one-
dimensional view of conflict in the contemporary
world. In effect, it attempts to relate conflicts
straight and simply to cultural differences
between peoples. It then relates peoples to
predominant cultures and groups all cultures into
8 major civilizations (Western, Islamic, Sinic,
Japanese, Orthodox, Hindu, Latin American and
African). It disregards or downplays all other
evidence to the contrary (regarding culture,
conflict and anything else that might contradict
the simple paradigm of “The Clash”).
9. 2.The historical and contemporary evidence of
conflict does not in any way support the argument of
“The Clash”. Sam Huntington personally admitted
that much in a discussion round at Harvard, but made
a vague reference to “predictions of future confirm a
strong case is made of the fact that modernization is
not equal to westernization. Just because people in
other cultures drink Coca-Cola and wear Nike shoes
does not mean that they also inhale the Western
system of values with it. Ah, yes. But this much was
known by anthropologists long before and has been
debated at length. It is, however, not an argument
that differences and frictions between cultures (or
even civilizations) will necessarily grow and there is
much evidence to the contrary (think of elite
formation or the growing importance of “epistemic
communities”).
10. 3.The argument does not in any way explain
why conflicts occur in the first place. In
particular, there is no discussion of the
importance of democratic vs. authoritarian
regimes, justice vs. equality, struggles over
the control of resources, ethno-political
mobilization, and ethnic entrepreneurs and
so on. In short: The major ingredients of
violent conflict are ignored for the sake of a
one-dimensional, wrong-headed argument.
11. 4.Clashes of “civilizations” could only occur if
the world is ordered according to Huntington’s
thesis of the “structure of civilizations”:
Countries group around the “core states” of
their own civilizations against other countries
that group around the core states of their own
civilizations. The core state of “The West” is
then, according to S.H., the United States of
America. Russia, India, China, Japan would be
the other “core states”, while Latin America,
Africa and Islam do not have core states (yet).
And here is part 1 of the hidden agenda of S.H: If
the West is to counter the “challenge” of the
rising civilizations, it must “rally” around the
U.S.A. Europe as an alternative model of
“western civilization” would be disaster for S.H.
12. Today, most Christians believe in the Trinity, meaning
that God has 3 forms (Father, Son, Holy Ghost/
Spirit). The concept of trinity was not adopted by
Christianity until the Council of Nicea in 325 AD.
Some of the early Christians were Unitarians. Even
today, there are Christian Unitarian churches that do
not accept the Trinity. Notable Rationalist Unitarians
include thinkers such as Ralph Waldo Emerson
(American), scientists such as Isaac Newton (British),
as well as famous figures such as Florence Nightingale
(British) in nursing and humanitarianism, Charles
Dickens (British) in literature, and Frank Lloyd Wright
(American) in architecture.
While in Islam.
Trinity is totally rejected. Jesus is neither God, nor
Son of God (in the literal sense). Jesus was a human
prophet and not divine.
13. Christianity and Islam both are Teleological
religions, that is their values and beliefs
represent the goals of existence and purpose
in human existence.
Irreligious people who violate the base
principles of those religions and perceived to
b furthering their own pointers aims, which
leads to violate interactions.
14. Two decades ago, after the end of the cold war, and
the triumph of liberal free market democracy,
Samuel Huntington predicted that future conflict
would be purely civilizational, and between nation
states. The West’s antagonists in these future
conflicts would be the world’s remaining
unassimilated non-Western cultures: Confucianism,
but especially Islam. In the past decade, civilizational
conflict with Islam has, indeed, escalated. These
struggles, however, are taking place, within and not
between, nation states, including the internecine
warfare (Fitnah) inside Islam. Finally, and most
importantly, culture and civilization are inseparable
from the economy, polity and society. Cultures are
not shaped, nor do they ever evolve, in a socio-
economic vacuum, making a purely civilizational
conflict virtually impossible.
