Abstract

The paper shows a proposal containing a group of conditions and norms to guide the relationships between different cultures to find solutions to situations of conflict, violence and domination. The model is proposed as a pluralistic one, an alternative model to the classic rationalistic and contemporary conceptions. This means we do not establish neither ideal conditions, nor perfectly rational individual nor universal and unique of its kind foundations of the proposed norms, but the real conditions of cultures are taken as standing points, some minimal capacities of the individual to the understanding and it is accepted the possibility in which norms can be established according to several criteria and different cultural conceptions.
