Managing cultural diversity inclusive and exclusive approaches Dhanimol MM Abstract In plural societies, people of different cultures live together in a common geographic territory with a common social set up. Most societies in the world today are culturally diverse—some more than others—and it would be difficult to find a nation whose people have only one cultural background, a single language and a single identity. There are many factors behind the cultural plurality of the contemporary world such as the influence of globalisation, the destruction oftraditional moral values, the liberal emphasis on individual choice and migration. In the humanitarian aspect, a number offactors make a community or group different from any other. These include culture, ethnicity, geographical area, language, lifestyle, race, religion, sexual orientation and socioeconomic status. A society is made up ofdiverse elements with particular features that make it unique. Every society is known by its predominant culture. Top |
