The Role of Intercultural Communication in Adapting Ethnic Groups to the European Union Social Space

The volume entitled "The Role of Intercultural Communication in Adapting Ethnic Groups to the European Union Social Space" is based on three gnoseological dimensions that the authors develop from different perspectives, using interpretative models and knowledge strategies specific to the humanistic and social scientific field:1. "Intercultural dialogue and interethnic coexistence in the European Union" is a general theme that emphasizes the forms of interaction of the ethnic groups found in different geo-social spaces of the European Union.2. "The Role of Intercultural Communication and European Education" is the second dimension that underlies this volume, emphasizing European education and its role in the development of the global society.3. "Social values, integration and multicultural compatibility in Europe" is the third thematic basis of this volume. Multicultural compatibility is the basis of the principles of constitution and functioning of the social space of the European Union. The harmony of the relations between the different ethnic, religious and national groups is a mandatory condition in the functioning of the European space.
