Topic One: Vocabulary • Culture- A learned way of living that is shared by a group of people. • Cultural Patterns- A classification system that social scientists use to study cultures. • Multicultural- Of many cultures. Canada is a multicultural nation. • Acculturation- A process of intercultural borrowing resulting in new & blended patterns. • Ethnocentric- The attitude that one culture is best and that all other cultures should be compared with it. • Assimilation- The absorption of one culture into another. Cultural Diversity • Cultural differences exist. • We need to value the local , national and global contributions of all cultures to our society. Cultural Similarities • All cultures have things in common. • These cultural “universals” include religion, values, games, education, music and traditions. • One way to look at cultural similarities is to use Cultural Patterns. Cultural Patterns • • • • • • • Economic Political Kinship Artistic Religious Educational Recreation and Play Multicultural • Countries like Canada, which consist of groups of people from many countries and ethic backgrounds are referred to as multicultural nations. While these cultures in Canada live much the same as each other because of acculturation, they have some variation. • Ethnocentric & Assimilation When diverse cultures are respected and their ways accepted, people of many cultures can live in harmony. However, at times in past history, and in some cases today, one culture believes that it is superior and that others should change. This type of thinking is called ethnocentric. The absorption of one culture into another is called assimilation. Examples of Ethnocentrism and Assimilation • Residential schools • Western culture • Hitler and Germany in 1930’s
