Discussion Questions
1) What does Huntington see as the trends in the spread of
religious fundamentalism, and what are the causes of these
trends? Do you agree or disagree?
2) Why and when do religious or other cultural differences breed
conflict between different states? Can you think of states from
different civilizations that seem to get along well, or states
from the same civilization that are generally at odds?
3) What does Huntington mean when he says that the
paramount axis of world politics will be the relations between
the West and the Rest ? Do you agree?
4) Have events since the article was written seemed to bear out
or contradict Huntingtons thesis? Would Osama bin Laden
agree with him or disagree?
5) What do you think the foreign policy implications of
Huntingtons argument are?
