  • National Cultural Differences and Multinational Business
    Globalization Note Series Pankaj Ghemawat and Sebastian Reiche National Cultural Differences and Multinational Business The eminent Dutch psychologist, management researcher, and culture expert Geert Hofstede, early in his career, interviewed unsuccessfully for an engineering job with an American company. Later, he wrote of typical cross-cultural misunderstandings that crop up when American managers interview Dutch recruits and vice versa: “American applicants, to Dutch eyes, oversell themselves. Their CVs are worded in superlatives…during the interview they try to behave assertively, promising things they are very unlikely to realize…Dutch applicants in American eyes undersell themselves. They write modest and usually short CVs, counting on the interviewer to find out by asking how good they really are…they are very careful not to be seen as braggarts and not to make promises they are not absolutely sure they can fulfill. American interviewers know how to interpret American CVs and interviews and they tend to discount the information provided. Dutch interviewers, accustomed to Dutch applicants, tend to upgrade the information. To an uninitiated American interviewer an uninitiated Dutch applicant comes across as a sucker. To an uninitiated Dutch interviewer an uninitiated American applicant comes across as a braggart.”1 Cultural differences, while difficult to observe and measure, are obviously very important. Failure to appreciate and account for them can lead to embarrassing blunders, strain relationships, and drag down business performance. And the effects of culture persist even in life-and-death situations. Consider the example of Korean Air’s high incidence of plane crashes between 1970 and 2000. As an analysis of conversations recorded in the black boxes of the crashed planes revealed, the co-pilots and flight engineers in all-Korean cockpits were too deferential to their captains.

  • Introduction: in the Event—Toward an Anthropology of Generic Moments
    IntroductIon In the Event—toward an Anthropology of Generic Moments Bruce Kapferer Against the Case as Illustration: The Event in Anthropology The exploration of events and situations has long been at the focus of anthro- pological ethnographic description. In common with many other disciplines in the social sciences and humanities, this has been so in two main and frequently combined senses: (1) as exemplifications or illustrations, usually in the form of case studies, of more general ethnographic descriptive or theoretical assertions, or (2) as happenings or occasions, slices of life, that establish a conundrum or problematic that the presentation of an ethnography and its analysis will solve or otherwise explain. Most anthropological ethnographies offer examples or variations of the first. The second is relatively common, especially among histo- rians, but perhaps the work of Clifford Geertz is the most celebrated example in anthropology. An outstanding instance is Geertz’s (1980) study Negara, which opens with the mass suicide of the Balinese court before the Dutch invaders. This event sets the stage for his exploration of the Balinese theatre state, Geertz demonstrating the suicide as consistent with a Balinese political logic that pres- ents power as defined and determined in the performance of status. The concern with events and situations in this book seeks to extend beyond these more or less conventional usages and to argue for a deepening of the methodological significance of events and situations in anthropological ethno- graphic practice. The overall direction of the approach that I essay is one that takes the event as central to anthropological analysis rather than the concept of society, in relation to which the event or the event-as-case is commonly engaged, either to substantialize the abstract (society) or to provide a means to grasp the foundational or general organizational principles of society.

  • Cross-Cultural Universals and Cultural Relativities G E R Lloyd Needham Research Institute, Cambridge
    INTERDISCIPLINARY SCIENCE REVIEWS, Vol. 35 No. 3–4, 2010, 201–14 History and Human Nature: Cross-cultural Universals and Cultural Relativities G E R Lloyd Needham Research Institute, Cambridge Recent studies in a wide range of different, if overlapping, fields of research have converged on a number of issues concerning the cross-cultural universality, or the cultural relativity, of human cognition. Those fields include social anthropology, linguistics, history, philosophy, developmental psychology, evolutionary psychology, and neurophysiology as well as cognitive science, the synoptic discipline, itself. The conclusions that have been proposed differ sharply. Some researchers (for example, Nisbett 2003) are convinced that there are radical differences in the ways in which different groups of humans perceive and reason — and in the ways in which earlier humans have done so in the past insofar as their thought patterns can be reconstructed from the evidence available to us. Others insist that, despite surface differences, there are robust underlying cross-cultural universals in such areas as colour perception (Berlin and Kay 1969), the basic emotions (Wierzbicka 1999) and even the ‘common-sense’ classification of animals (Atran 1990). A first question that arises concerns whether or how far the parties to the disputes are merely talking past one another. Certainly there are major differences in the data cited and the methodologies used in those different areas of research. Social anthropologists analyse ethnographic field reports, including those stemming from questionnaires designed to elicit responses to key issues to do with how their subjects perceive and reason. These may relate to matters that do not form part of the ordinary experience of the people investigated, such as how they would classify animals or artefacts that they have never seen.

  • Invented Or Inherited?
    Call for Papers 12th UNEeCC Conference Culture: Invented or Inherited? 7-9 November 2018 University of Malta, Valletta Campus Culture is ‘the way-of-life in an ecosystem characteristic of a particular people’ (Keesing 1981:68). This is only one of the countless definitions given to this term which is ‘surprisingly’ and ‘notoriously’ difficult to define due to its dynamic nature (Smith and Riley 2011). Underlying dimensions characterising early and modern Europe, such as the economic situation of specific countries and humanitarian crises may be determining factors by which its collectivist culture has been constantly in flux, particularly in its production and consumption. One would question the affects which these factors may have on the transmission of traditional and popular European cultures and if their core components are, in fact, inherited or invented. The main objective of this conference is to develop critical arguments based on two concepts which can be non-homogenous and overlapping at the same time, namely (i) Culture inheritance and (ii) Cultural invention. Key questions relevant to this conference are: (i) ‘how does the concept of European Capitals of Culture consider the invention and inheritance of cultures?’; (ii) ‘What avenues are being taken by ECoC programmers to strike a balance in the promotion of cultural components which are ‘invented’ and those based on grass-root identities?’; and (iii) ‘What are the core arguments surrounding the questions of whether a culture is invented or inherited?.

  • Balancing Cultural Strengths in Teaching
    1 Chapter 1 Balancing Cultural Strengths in Teaching I feel like I have to leave my culture at the door to be taken seriously, to Tibetan Symbol of Balance not startle people, to have a chance at being seen as intelligent. Trying to learn through someone else’s cultural traditions makes getting my education even tougher. I grew up discussing things and comparing my ideas to others but classrooms are mostly just hours of listening. I want to apply what I’m learning at least hypothetically to serve my own communities, but mostly we just regurgitate facts, ideas, and theory in the abstract. I’ve learned over time how to negotiate this reality yet I wonder sometimes what it would have been like to learn within my own cultural epistemologies. My hope is that when I am a professor, I can teach in ways that embody many cultures, not just my own or the ones that are so prevalent in college and university classrooms. - African American doctoral student in education1 ulture is interwoven through teaching and learning (Banks & Banks, 1997; Gay, 2000; Tisdell, 2003). Similar to the student quoted above, each college student C brings culturally influenced ways of learning, communicating, and behaving as well as expectations about teaching with them into collegiate learning environments (Chávez, Ke, & Herrera, 2012; Ibarra, 2001; Rendón, 2009). Likewise, faculty bring cultural influences into teaching practices and into the interpretation and evaluation of students (Chávez, 2007; Ibarra, 2001). Teaching-learning relationships between faculty and students are embedded in culture. We propose that faculty apply a cultural lens to teach more inclusively across cultural frameworks.

  • US Immigration and the Cultural Impact of Demographic Change. An
    GLOBAL SHIFTS: U.S. IMMIGRATION AND THE CULTURAL IMPACT OF DEMOGRAPHIC CHANGE. AN ADDRESS Marcelo M. Sua´rez-Orozco* At the turn of the millennium we are witnessing intense new worldwide migration and refugee flows. There are now some 100 million transnational immigrants plus an estimated 30 million refugees displaced from their homelands. These flows are largely structured by the intensi- fication of globalization—a process of economic, social, and cultural transformation rapidly accelerating in the last decade.1 Globalization has increased immigration in a variety of ways. First, transnational capital flows (roughly a trillion dollars cross national boundaries every day) tend to stimulate migration because where capital flows, immigrants tend to follow.2 Second, the new information and communication technologies that are at the heart of globalization tend to stimulate migration because they encourage new standards of consumption and life-style choices. Would-be immigrants imagine better opportunities elsewhere and mobi- lize to achieve them. Third, the affordability of mass transportation—last year approximately 1.5 billion airline tickets were sold—has put the migration option within the reach of millions who heretofore could not consider it. Fourth, globalization has stimulated new migration because it has produced uneven results—big winners and losers. Globalization pains have been felt in many regions of the developing world—perpetuating unemployment and further depressing wages.3 On *Victor S.

  • Subculture and the Consumer Behavior
    SUBCULTURE AND THE CONSUMER BEHAVIOR 5 Apparently it seems that culture of a particular country or a society is homogeneous, but in reality it is composed of a larger number of more or less distinct groups. Each of these groups is known as a subculture. The knowledge of subculture provides important guidelines to marketers in formulating strategies for effective performance of marketing activities. School of Business Blank Page Unit-5 Page-120 Bangladesh Open University Lesson - 1 & - 2 : Different Types of Subculture and Their Influences on Consumption Objectives of these lessons After reading these lessons, you will be able to: Understand the subcultural context of consumer behavior Define subculture Identify different types of subcultures Know how different subcultures affect buying behavior Explain them for marketing decision making. Introduction Subculture is a part of the culture containing the important features of the main culture. In this lesson we shall highlight on the subcultural context, types of subcultures, subcultural influence on consumer behavior as well as marketing implications of the concept of subculture. Subcultural Context Affecting Consumer Behavior Culture, you know, is an extremely broad and encompassing term. It includes what we have learned, our history, values, morals, customs, art, and habit. Marketing takes place within a given culture. Marketers should know that experience, history, values, morals, customs, art, habit, etc. vary within a given culture requiring different marketing programs. Not everyone in the same country or society shares the same behavioral pattern of the dominant or main culture. It clearly indicates that there are subcultures, such as those of northerners, southerners, city-dwellers, the poor, teen agers, elderly, religious groups and so on.

  • Hwa-Byung:The
    FROM THE INSTRUCTOR In his prize-winning essay, “Hwa-Byung: The “Han”-Blessed Illness,” Wooyoung Cho taps a global skill set to shed new light on how culture shapes definitions of mental illness. His paper is an outstanding example of student-driven inquiry. I had never heard of the Korean culture-bound mental illness called hwa-byung when Wooyoung proposed this project. But even if I had, I would’ve had no idea where to find narratives about hwa-byung written by young men, let alone be able to translate them from Korean. (Are you curious yet?) In his research, Wooyoung learned that scholarly studies of hwa-byung have focused on middle-aged women and interpreted their symptoms as reflections of Korea’s patriarchal social structure. When he discovered that today more young men are being diagnosed with hwa-byung, he wanted to understand the social causes of their distress. One way he gathered evidence was by searching a Korean online forum and reading posts by young men about their hwa-byung experiences. When students in Marisa Milanese’s “Global Documentary” class read a draft of Wooyoung’s essay in a cross-section peer review exercise, they were understandably skeptical about his methodology. They asked for “a clearer understanding of why analyzing narratives is a credible method to gain insight into this illness.” Wooyoung responded with a revision that provided the theoretical framework necessary to explain the kind of authority those anonymous online posts have in the context of his project. He was wise to listen carefully to his readers.
