The trend of globalization has sharpened the debate on interculturality, which scholars examine from different and often conflicting points of view ('content' vs. 'practice', 'culture-specific' vs. 'universal', 'communication (meta)theory' vs. 'communication practice', 'individual' vs. 'collective', etc.). Whereas all these approaches are necessary to describe the multiple dimensions of interculturality, their dichotomous nature does not help to account for its internal complexity, which cannot be dissociated from the connections that exist among all these dimensions. The difficulty posed by the essentialist interpretations that tend to result from these dichotomies is compounded by the fact that in postmodern debates priority has been given to approaches that emphasize individual or collective agency over structural constraints which have to do with political economy or with cultural and linguistic codes and traditions. This paper aims mainly at suggesting that the dissolution of the boundaries that exist between these approaches should be pursued in order to get a fuller and richer approach to their common object of study. After discussing, by way of illustration, content-based and practice-based perspectives, we suggest that one way of getting beyond these dichotomies consists in focusing on the 'interactional' dimension of interculturality, which means laying emphasis on intersubjectivity and, particularly, on the individual subjects considered as members of different cultural communities who strive to transcend their sociocultural boundaries in order to reach harmonious interactions in a world in which inequality and the de-territorialization of people and cultures are central features.

이 글은 주광순 교수가 제안하는 상호문화의 세 가지 반성적 기재인 "이해", "대화", "상호변혁"이 본 필자가 주장하는 "함께-삶"의 세 가지 테제와 일치한다는 점을 딜타이의 "이해" 개념을 매개로 해명하고자 한다. 필자가 생각하는 "함께-삶"의 세 가지 테제는 첫째 '관계에 대한 의식', 둘째 '관계 맺기의 상호성', 셋째 '상호관계에 대한 같은 표상 공유'다. 딜타이의 "이해" 개념을 살펴 볼 때, 첫째 "이해가 정신의 구성물들에게만 해당된다는 점"과 둘째 "이해가 표현과 피표현체의 간의 관계"라는 점, 그리고 셋째 "이해가 [체험자와 추체험자의] 하나의 온전한 함께-삶을 이룸"을 의미한다는 점이 확인된다. 이런 맥락에서 딜타이의 "이해" 개념은 "함께-삶"의 테제들과 상호문화의 반성적 기재를 묶어 줄 수 있는 하나의 가능한 매개개념으로 여겨진다. 이러한 맥락에서 "함께-삶"의 테제와 상호문화의 조건을 딜타이의 "이해"개념을 매개로 해명하고자 한다.

This paper shows a theoretical-reflective analysis on the importance of vocational training and value education to transition into models that are inclusive in cultural diversity, typical of the globalized and hyperconnected environment of modern societies. Interculturality is contextualized as a key element in linking teaching-learning processes with the uniqueness and problems associated with cultural ethnocentrism and alterity. In this sense, the work is part of a thematic review that contributes to the understanding, inclusion and recognition of cultural, racial and ethnic diversity in the different formal spaces of learning. As summary, value education and transversality are the basis for building educational interculturality in future generations.
