Cultures Diversity!
May 3, 2009 - 07:24 PM

Cultures are more than language, dress, and food customs. Cultural groups may share race, ethnicity, or nationality, but they also arise from cleavages of generation, socioeconomic class, sexual orientation, ability and disability, political and religious affiliation and language.

How culture definition different from country or country?How culture influenced people's behaviors and shaping their characters?What problems caused by cultural differences?

Our cultures give each of us a very strong idea of what are the right and wrong ways to live our lives. When people of different cultures meet, they may have completely different ideas about how life "should" be lived. This may lead to disagreements, misunderstandings, and violent conflicts.

I think the most important thing to keep in mind is that there is no one right way to live life. Cultures' answers to life are not "right" or "wrong", just different.

I think that culture changes from country to country mainly because of the natural surroundings of each country. The surroundings partly determine the types of food available, the climate and appropriate clothing and sports. Because the surroundings in each country are different, the cultures will be different. Human creativity in each country also shapes culture.
