Ethnocentrism
1. On the lines below, write a definition of Ethnocentrism.
Find one on the web.
Ethnocentrism is when a group of
people think that they are better from other groups, or people from same
country think that their country better than other country. That makes many isms, for example, prejudice,
and specially discrimination. For
example, when I was at high school some Bedouins think that they are better
than the citizens, so they were fighting with citizens.
2. Read the cartoon. How is Ethnocentrism reflected in the
conversation below?
Some people do not give any
respect for other cultures like they are live in the world with themselves, and
they thought that they are better than all.
On the other hand some people try to know about how to treat people from
other cultural and give respect to them, because they know that the world is
not for them.
3. Looking at the cartoon characters.
Describe Bucky
This type of people like this
character will not agree or be kind for people how they are from different culture,
and they will only associate with people who from same culture or like what
they think. Moreover, this type of
people “intolerance people” will only prefer events that from their culture and
will not watch movies that shows people at
their cultures with all different things than intolerance people culture.
Describe the man talking with Bucky. Let’s call him Tom
People like Tom are interesting to know about other culture, and this type of people will be very happy to help or deal with people from different cultures, to show respect for them. Furthermore, tolerant people will have development in their ideas, experiments and general education from other people. For example, we can take from other people experience but may be people from our culture do not have experience on what we want so, we take them from other culture people.
