The Center hosted Dr. Khazal Al-Majidi for a lecture titled “The Historical Classification of Civilizations and the Balance of Their Elements,” moderated by Mr. Mohamed Hammam Fekry.
The lecture introduced key conceptual definitions related to history and civilization, and reviewed major classification models developed by leading scholars, highlighting their strengths and limitations.
Dr. Al-Majidi then presented his own comprehensive framework, identifying 28 civilizations across ancient, medieval, and modern periods, and proposed a “civilizational balance” based on 15 core elements, with ethics as the central criterion.
He concluded by discussing the present and future of global civilization, emphasizing the shift toward a multipolar world order that may give rise to new civilizations grounded in scientific progress and cultural diversity.
The session ended with an engaging discussion, where attendees contributed questions and insights that enriched the overall dialogue.
