Abstract

Taking into account that the slogan of the next World Congress of Semiotics refers to global semiotics, we analyze, in this context, the different meanings of global and of the associated terms, such as civilization, culture and communication. We distinguish two notions of culture and several aspects of global semiotics, while civilization is shown to be the first proposed notion of culture. Communication is a much more complex activity, whose relation to sign process is not yet clarified. We conclude that no status of semiotics could be accepted that is incompatible with its global nature. Semiotics is a meta-discipline global in all respects. We point out in this way the complexity of the tasks of the 11th World Congress of Semiotics.
