1. THEME: CULTRAL EXCHANGE

2. PROBLEM QUESTION: Why if the cultural exchange is a tool to acquire knowledge and improve international relations, it is no more often used in underdeveloped countries?

3. APROACH TO THE PROBLEM

The exchange is a tool that every day is gaining more strength around the world, this presents three types which are: student, sport and culture, each one of them has completely different characteristics that give a different meaning to each type. Trade carried out in most of them have been successful, with the exception of the cultural that has limited by internal and external factors such as xenophobia, racism and ethnocentrism, not to mention a constant violation of human rights, especially against foreigners coming from third world countries. The governments of other countries have tried to dispel this great problem with attempts almost useless since the campaigns proposals have not been sufficiently thorough to society in general, this includes all social classes.

The problem of differences in ethnicity, race or xenophobia, involuntarily it is cultivated directly or indirectly from the early years of the life of a person, this happens in the 132 countries currently recognized by the Organization of the United Nations, some with more rigor than others, but all with the intention of consolidating a sovereignty and a national pride based on acts that infringe on the aesthetics and morality of a person with a desire to explore other cultures. The intention of the cultural exchange is defined in exchange human capital resources and try to in one way or another inculcating respect for other cultures, the union of the countries divided into first, second, third and fourth world, and finally, to increase the desire for a new and better world where the base of the organization by states is purely economic and not a moral one. Taking as a point of reference that the exchange service offered by the leading companies in the world occurs mainly in adolescents, highlights the fact that in general is the adolescent who is responsible for generating the movement of intentions, that is, as well as the cultural exchange transmits traditions, you can transmit elements of bad character such as phobias, egocentrism and bad habits. As well as the efforts to try to give you a little bit of reverse to this process have been banal, cultural exchange has been obscured because of the little interest by the aspirants to acquire new knowledge based on experience and not in orthodox studies, from here it should be noted that the most affected countries by these social factors are the underdeveloped countries have few economic capabilities and social constraints and the question arises as Why is that if cultural exchange is a tool to acquire knowledge and improve relations international, is not used more often in underdeveloped countries?

4. JUSTIFICATION

“The living culture is one where you interact with others, where people create, mix, and re meaning with those identified”. (ZARAGOZA, F. 1999)

The present project arises primarily with a desire to explore new methods of extracurricular learning, but also in order to appropriate knowledge and then be in the ability to transmit without an academic degree or major curricular previous study but purely experimental and empirical, based on the idea from several perspectives to explain the impact of international social conflicts
