With multiculturalism debemos entender el termino a manera de aproximación Conocimiento of the Otro de la realidad the human and cultural diversity is expressed in the infinite and rich variety of peoples, cultures and races that make up humanity. Facing the "clash of civilizations" presented by contemporary thinkers such as Samuel Hutington, thought multicultural understanding of others proposed as a means and method of fertilization in the human adventure of learning. If Western thought has always been characterized by an ethnocentric and exclusionary tinged messianic salvation to the people who considered backward, barbaric and savage, the multicultural approach instead promotes dialogue between different cultures in which each interacts with another at the same level so that the meeting be a mutual enrichment and not an imposition of values \u200b\u200band attitudes, which may be very suitable and appropriate for a particular civilization but that may not be exportable to other human groups. Only an approach where dialogue is established between "equal" today can lead humanity to an exit passageway in which violence is embedded. The phenomenon of "colonialism" of Western civilization is the historical antithesis of multicultural thinking, the old "colonialism" of the nineteenth century has now acquired new nuances, new faces, but no less aggressive and harmful to non-Western peoples , or villages in the so-called "third world", colonialism far from trying to add value to those people with whom she is related, they have played in economic plunder and the acculturation of them. This has been due to two main factors, the first of them trying to secure the so-called civilized world energy resources of the "third world" to continue unchecked development, and the second, and not least, the belief Western man that their values \u200b\u200band attitudes to life have a "universal" nature and end point of the development of any civilization other than his own, so, the Western view the world is a vision "monochromatic" where there is no space to enrich themselves with the values \u200b\u200bgiven by the different peoples of mankind. However, in history we have two examples close in space teach us that another way is possible to approach others, I refer in particular to the historical development of the peoples of the Mediterranean basin and in the case of civilization developed in Andalusia few centuries ago, in one case as in another, trade, cultural and scientific, gave birth to two of the greatest civilizations ever known to history, in particular in the Mediterranean basin occurs all ideas flow a todos los niveles que harán posible el nacimiento y desarrollo de toda la civilización que conocemos hoy en día, allí surge la escritura, el desarrollo agrícola, el arte, etc. Todos estos valores culturales son exportados a occidente vía Andalucía y al resto de Europa, y todo ello fue posible gracias a una mentalidad en la que predominaba la idea de intercambio cultural como medio de enriquecimiento mutuo. En el caso de al-Andalus, no cabe la menor duda de cómo el intercambio de ideas que se produjo en esos ocho siglos en los que convivieron diversos colectivos humanos de pensamiento, produjo una de las civilizaciones más ricas que la humanidad jamás haya conocido.
Hoy en día en la llamada “aldea global ", in a globalized world by technology and by interdependence, the phenomenon of immigration and population movements, are a new opportunity for the world called" civilized "is enriched by the cultural contributions of diverse peoples to Europe to arrive with their cultural backgrounds, Muslims, American, Oriental, in the West seek a solution to their precarious living conditions in their home countries, Europe has two options to this fact, moreover unstoppable, or refuse and equipment behind of the defensive walls and continue to defend its values \u200b\u200bas unique and universal, or on the contrary, a fruitful dialogue and sincere "you a tú” con el Otro, esto no significa pérdida de los valores de identidad de cada pueblo, porque en la diversidad está la riqueza, mientras que en los sistemas homogéneos y monolíticos no hay mas que pobreza y miseria de pensamiento.
