Any attempt to have a North-South intercultural dialogue was so start from the premise that we do not live in a horizontal world of inter-cultural relations. The presupposition of horizontality assumes a false equality that does not contribute to a productive, critical dialogue between North and South. We should begin by acknowledging that the relations between cultures in the modern/colonial capitalist word-system are vertically organized, structured in a power relation of colonizers and colonized. This article discusses the concept of coloniality of power and proposes a third alternative beyond the Eurocentric versus fundamentalist contemporary cultural dilemma.
