CULTURES, RELIGIONS AND DIALOGUE
A HISTORICAL TOUR AND A PROPOSAL FOR PEACE
Abstract
We currently find ourselves in a context of geopolitical instability with serious economic consequences where some events at a local and global level acquire a very particular meaning, opening themselves to speculations full of contradictions and with millenarian tones. Furthermore, the pandemic has radically modified the perception of time and is becoming one of those turning points that change the course of history. From the global health emergency to the conversion of the Hagia Sophia into a mosque in Istanbul and the storming of the Capitol in Washington, D.C., with its violent altercations, we are faced with historical phenomena that will be analyzed for years in university classrooms for their cultural impact and emotional. Starting from this framework, in this essay I would like to take a trip in time starting from the East until reaching some central events in the religious history of humanity.
