Culture - three videos - group 2
Hi everyone, once you've watched the three videos, have a think about these questions:
- What is the difference between society and culture?
- Do you agree with the 4 points about culture made in video 2?
- What kinds of things are different in different cultures?
- Do you think that developing intercultural competence requires a more ethnocentric or a more cultural relativist mindset?
- What problems can you see with these two standpoints?
Post your answers here...

ReplyDelete1. Society: organized group
culture: rules they live by
2. 4 points of video 1: agreed
3. greetings, language, rules, food
4. cultural relitivism, as more world open, open for new cultures
5. Ethnocentric: not tolerant enough for other cultures
cultural relativism: line has to be drawn at some point, not everything should be accepted (inhuman behavior)
Society is the structure whereas culture guidelines and rules (the way of living and human ideas)
ReplyDeleteWe agree on it, because we are also living in a society with cultural rules which are evolving with the time.
Behaviour, religion, tradion, language, food, education, parenthood
A cultural relativist mindset
Ethnocentric - could be understood racist and judgemental / Cultures could loose diversity, if everything is seen equal.

Delete1) Culture are the rules and guidelines that shape society. Society are the people and how they organize themselves in a certain area.
ReplyDelete2) We agree to all of the points.
3) Behaviour in general, habits, language, religion, living with many relatives or not in the same household, personal relationships and how people treat each other, art and music (what the majority likes most), how nature is treated
4) It is easier to develop intercultural competence with a more cultural relativist mindset, because it requires to think about other cultures.
5) It might be difficult to get out of the thoughts of one's own culture.
