Abstract

Cross-cultural interactions have been occurring for a long time among Asians and have become more individualized with different practices, cultures, religions, and philosophical traditions, some of which have experienced confusion, rejection, and active engagement since the early modern era. Intercultural philosophy has been increasing the contact between different cultures and traditions. This encourages philosophers from diverse backgrounds to engage with each other in a mutually respectful manner and recognizes that their philosophical views may be incomplete or require revision. This paper explores various ways of intercultural philosophy, its presuppositions and rationales, and associated challenges. This includes contributions from scholars from different regions of the world including Asia. We also discuss the significance of intercultural philosophy, review some of the ideas presented in the existing literature, and examine the justifications for these ideas while addressing the challenges that must be overcome.
