This paper explores the necessity and the relevance of distance learning in the field of Human and Social Sciences. The work is a presentation of our book Interculturality and Interdisciplinarity in Education, published in partnership with five universities from Russia, Serbia, U K, Japan and Romania. We present the project coordination Romanian-Japanese Interculturality, written in Japan Danube Friendship, approved by Japanese Embassy, in the field of Distance learning. We identified the challenges facing the application of Distance learning in education, studied the inter-relationship of social networks and we have coordinated some educational books. For example, Haiku Solidarity Book, Constanta, 2012, was inspired by the earthquake in the 11th March and its effect. We decided to publish students' works and their mentors as a sign of solidarity. These (inter)national experiences are examples of good distance learning, offering creative prospective visions to develop the system of international projects. We plead for passing from the monoculture to the inter one (M. Rey). European values will lose their special situation of universal norms accepted officially; they will enter the local spiritual creations regime. The Occidental value, if it doesn`t want to provincialize, will be obliged to establish the dialogue with the other ex-centric cultures, for instance, the Oriental ones. (Published Abstract)
