Abstract
In my paper I will try to describe, first of all, today’s religious and cultural tensions, in the frame of the so-called “return of religions” in contemporary world. I will discuss the common idea of “religion, what do we mean with this term and – connected with this topic – how a fundamentalistic development of religion is possible. My task will be to define a more specific strategy to manage religious and cultural conflicts. How is it possible to develop a true communication among religious worlds? Which motivation shall be at the basis of this practice? How is it possible to use language for the sake of an agreement, of an understanding between religious women and men? At the end of my essay I will try to answer these questions.
