Softskill - Interaction Culture [II]
Type II - Task
- What
parts of our material culture reflect culture diffusion?
- Please give three examples
of Ethnocentrism!
Answer:
- Interaction culture is probably reflected as culture diffusion.
- I
still quite remember what the lecturer spoke in the class. Ethnocentrism is
based on the ideas and beliefs of one particular culture and using these to
judge other culture. For example, in America in many years before now – people differ
whether they are black or white people. Black people get discrimination by the
white people, the white people assume that they are much better than them –
white people also called that the black people are Negro. Then now I think
there is no longer any discrimination in there, black or white people can live
together. Even in several cases there are white people married with black
people or now many black people become singers, rappers, actors, actresses and
they get appreciated by many people.And
I remember when I watched an Indonesian film; it’s called Ayat Ayat Cinta. There
is a scene where two American visited Egypt – when they got in into the train then
some people in the train looked them sarcastically, even local people didn’t allow
them to sit. The local people think American is such a heathen. So I think it’s
one of examples of Ethnocentrism. Even
ethnocentrism happens in our social life. Javanese sometimes they think they
are better. They are friendly, nice, hard working (I’m Javanese hahaha) so yeah
maybe sometimes I think there is no better tribe besides Javanese. Peace! Hehehe
