DZIAŁALNOŚĆ HUNÓW W EUROPIE JAKO PRZYKŁAD ZDERZENIA CYWILIZACJI
THE ACTIVITIES OF HUNS IN EUROPE AS AN EXAMPLE OF A CLASH OF CIVILIZATIONS

Summary/Abstract: The result of the military, political and economic activity of the Huns in Europe was the depopulation of vast areas, massive ethnic changes, and the destruction of many previous political organ- isms. The question arises as to why they were so successful. They had knowledge and skills that were alien to the European civilization of that time but perfectly known among the nomadic population of Central Asia and China. Therefore, their activity can be seen as a confrontation of different cultural models. In this sense, it was a clash of civilizations – almost in a sense proposed by S. Huntington.
