Encounter between Two Worlds

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  13 January 2010

Extract

By adopting the theme “Encounter between two worlds” for the celebration marking the 500th anniversary of Christopher Columbus's first voyage to the Americas, the international community was seeking to highlight what the Old World and the New World have in common and what can bring the peoples on either side of the Atlantic closer together. Such concern is understandable in a community engaged in a ceaseless quest for a new world order based on dialogue and harmony.
