Cornelis Hulsman believes that tensions between the Arab world and the West, as well as those between Muslims and Christians, should never be reported about in isolation but efforts must be made to understand tensions in their proper socio-economical and historical contexts. Only this will contribute to a better understanding between peoples of different cultures and will help to address problems various people(s) encountered. Media is able to play a prominent role in working toward intercultural understanding but they also can play a highly destructive role. For this reason an effective media watch is greatly needed.

Famous quotes containing the word views:
“The word “conservative” is used by the BBC as a portmanteau word of abuse for anyone whose views differ from the insufferable, smug, sanctimonious, naive, guilt-ridden, wet, pink orthodoxy of that sunset home of the third-rate minds of that third-rate decade, the nineteen-sixties.”
—Norman Tebbit (b. 1931)
“No work of art ever puts forward views. Views belong to people who are not artists.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
“Experiences in order to be educative must lead out into an expanding world of subject matter, a subject matter of facts or information and of ideas. This condition is satisfied only as the educator views teaching and learning as a continuous process of reconstruction of experience.”
—John Dewey (1859–1952)
