English teaching and learning: Intersections with culture and interculturality

The intercultural perspective has knocked on the door of almost all disciplines of knowledge. From mathematics to sociology, the different weavings that make up the great tapestry of knowledge have recently been interwoven by the threads of the cultural. They are threads that generate a tone that had been absent in the chromatic distribution of the tapestry of knowledge in most disciplines. It is the tone of inclusion, of the superimposition of the human overtechnique, objectivity, productivity and the commodification of the vital experience offered by education. It is useless to learn about everything if education is not understood as a project of construction and co-construction and not of self-destruction of the human being and what surrounds him. Perhaps we have focused so much on knowing what is outside of us that we often overlook the importance of exploring and understanding what lies within our own being. A look inside ourselves always reveals that we are beings who need to think about ourselves, to think about the Other and to think about ourselves in relation to the Other.
