Résumé
In this article we show the main ideas of the Palestinianthinker Edward Said about the possibility to establish bases for theIntercultural Dialogue by overcoming the exclusive semiological models,including that offered by the Hegemonic Imperial Discourse. Oppositeto theory of cultural conflict between irreconcilable hegemonicstructures, as proposed by authors like Samuel P. Huntington with hisClash of Civilizations paradigm, Edward Said advocates to promotediscursive bases that facilitate coexistence, dialogue and mutualenrichment among people and nations, following the model provided bythe musical technique of counterpoint
