| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The clash of civilizations is essentially the conflict among individuals form different civilizations. Individuals struggle for access to survival resources, and the scarcity of resources is the fundamental issue. When it becomes difficult to access resources alone, individuals tend to organize themselves in certain ways, and civilization could be one fo these ways. However, the conflicts among different civilization do not arise as easily as Huntington imagines, and the existence of buffer zones between civilizations is one of the facts that constrain conflict. Buffer zones appear with the emergence of civilization boundaries and are clearly visible in macro and micro cross sections. The buffer zones are the concrete expression of Knowledge shared by civilization and their exchange, interracial neighbouhoods, mixed marriages and so on. |
