The topic of the paper carries a symbolic of the contemporary communication trends between people of different countries, ethnicities and cultures. Its concept is to emphasize the challenges multicultural education of students faces today. The purpose of the paper is to theoretically review the cultural mosaic and dynamics of relationships between students of different cultural background. Through a theoretical analysis we will unfold some of the difficulties which continuously follow the practice of multicultural education, with a special emphasis on: 1. Setting, namely, resetting cultural barriers between students, and 2. Describing possibilities that contribute to eliminate the same, in order to improve the fragile interethnic, respectively intercultural, relationships. We refer to data of many theoretic studies subject of analysis of some of the causes which produce dilemmas and contradiction in the relation theory and implementation of multiculturalism. We conclude by discussing key findings and identifying issues for further research to create a functional, open and democratic educational society.
