Cultural relativism is the theory that moral truths are determined by different cultures. It argues that because cultures have different moral codes, there are no objective moral truths. However, cultural relativism has weaknesses. It cannot determine which actions are truly good or bad. If a culture approves of an action, it does not necessarily mean the action is morally right. Cultural relativism also does not allow for moral progress and assumes all beliefs are equally valid, which is problematic. While it acknowledges cultural differences, cultural relativism is flawed as an ethical theory.
The document discusses the concept of culture, defining it as the cumulative knowledge, experiences, beliefs, values, and behaviors shared by a group of people. It outlines several theories related to culture, including cultural determinism and cultural relativism. It also discusses how culture manifests itself at different levels of depth from superficial symbols to deeper values. Finally, it notes there are multiple layers of culture that can exist for an individual, including national, regional, gender, generational, social class, and corporate levels.
This document discusses culture and its influence on human behavior and business. It defines culture and examines how it is manifested through symbols, heroes, rituals, values, and norms. It also explores how culture shapes attitudes toward time, work, leisure, business, education, and religion. Hofstede's cultural model is presented, analyzing cultural dimensions like power distance, uncertainty avoidance, individualism, masculinity, and long-term orientation. The document concludes that understanding cultural complexity and distance is essential for international business success.
This document discusses several concepts related to culture, including ethnocentrism, cultural relativism, subculture, culture shock, cultural lag, and cultural dualism. Ethnocentrism is the belief that one's own culture is superior, while cultural relativism holds that no culture is superior and cultural beliefs are equally valid. Subcultures exist within societies and differ in language, dress, food, and other customs. Culture shock occurs when confronted with unfamiliar cultures, and cultural lag is the inability to adapt immediately to cultural changes. Cultural dualism refers to a culture influenced by another and practicing elements of both.
This document defines culture and discusses its key characteristics and components. It notes that culture is learned through social interaction and transmission, is a source of satisfaction for humans, and is both stable yet dynamic over time. The document outlines the main components of culture, including norms, ideas/beliefs/values, material objects, and symbols. It also discusses related sub-concepts such as cultural relativism, culture shock, ethnocentrism, and subcultures.
This document provides an overview of key concepts in sociological understanding of culture. It discusses culture as consisting of material and symbolic components that are shared and passed down through a group. Key components of symbolic culture discussed include values, norms, language, and symbols. The document also examines cultural diversity, change, and theories for analyzing culture, including structural functionalism and social conflict perspectives. Socialization and its role in cultural transmission across the lifespan is explored.
Culture is the knowledge, language, values, customs, and material objects that are passed between generations in a society. It consists of both material objects like clothing and shelters, as well as nonmaterial elements like beliefs and values. Key components of culture include symbols, language, norms, and sanctions or rewards for behaviors. Cultural change occurs through discovery, invention, and diffusion between groups. Societies exhibit cultural diversity, subcultures, and countercultures. Examining culture from functionalist, conflict, and symbolic interactionist perspectives provides different views on its role and influence in society.

Culture plays an important role in shaping moral behavior. Culture is defined as the shared knowledge, beliefs, arts, customs and habits of a society. Moral values and standards are acquired through communication between generations in a culture. However, cultural relativism argues that different cultures have different moral codes and there is no objective way to judge one culture's morals as superior. While cultural relativism warns against arrogance, it is also important to recognize that some moral values like caring for children and avoiding murder may be universally shared across cultures.
This document provides an overview of cultural relativism, ethnocentrism, and xenocentrism. It discusses how cultural relativism is important for cultural understanding and avoiding ethnocentrism. Ethnocentrism is the view that one's own culture is superior, while cultural relativism recognizes that different cultures should be understood on their own terms rather than judged. The document also briefly discusses xenocentrism, which is the opposite view that other cultures are superior to one's own.
Culture can be defined in several ways. It encompasses the characteristics and knowledge of a group, including language, religion, cuisine, social habits, arts, beliefs, and institutions. Culture is shared within a society and provides traditions and practices that are learned and passed down between generations. It is dynamic and constantly changing as societies adapt over time to new ideas and conditions.
Culture is an important concept in sociology and is defined in various ways by different sociologists. Culture includes knowledge, beliefs, arts, morals, customs, and other capabilities acquired by humans as members of society. It is learned and transmitted between generations. Culture has both material and non-material aspects. It is shared within a group and influences human behavior. Culture is also changing over time as it adapts to different environments.
Culture can be summarized in 3 sentences:
Culture is the shared knowledge, beliefs, norms, and practices of a group. It includes material and nonmaterial elements that are learned and transmitted intergenerationally. Different theoretical perspectives view culture as functional for society, a site of conflict and inequality, or as dynamic and open to various interpretations.
Society is defined as a group of people living in the same territory, relatively independent from outsiders, and sharing a common culture. A society exists through interactions between its members. Three classical theories about the origins of society are structural functionalism, conflict theory, and symbolic interactionism. Society functions through both visible written rules and invisible unwritten rules that guide people's daily interactions and behaviors. Culture is learned and shared among a society and encompasses beliefs, values, knowledge, and other aspects of a people's way of life.
Culture is shaped by the norms, values, beliefs, behaviors, and objects that make up a group's way of life. It is expressed through both material objects and nonmaterial aspects like ideas and attitudes. Subcultures exist as distinct groups within a larger dominant culture that differ in their values and behaviors. Deviance from cultural norms is a relative concept that depends on time and place, and plays a role in both social change and the reinforcement of social order through systems of social control.
The document discusses interpretive sociology and the study of culture. It outlines that interpretive sociology focuses on how meaning and interpretation shape social life, as opposed to external observable factors. Culture is a central factor for interpretations, as it involves shared meanings and values. While Weber advocated for value-neutral sociology, he recognized that meaning and cultural systems matter. The study of culture draws from fields like anthropology, literary studies, and history. It treats culture as a system of shared meanings that shape identity and social practices.
The document discusses three orientations for viewing other cultures: ethnocentrism, which is judging other cultures solely based on one's own cultural values and beliefs; xenocentrism, the opposite view that one's own culture is inferior; and cultural relativism, an approach of understanding behaviors and beliefs in the context of other cultures without imposing judgments of superiority.
Social, Political, and Cultural behavior and PhenomenaMiss Chey
Every society has norms that guide appropriate behavior. Culture includes shared beliefs, values, and symbols learned from one generation to the next. It is integrated over time as societies adapt. Culture exists through both material items and abstract concepts like language, values, and beliefs. There are various types of social norms including folkways, mores, taboos, and laws, which differ in how strictly they are enforced. Understanding culture requires recognizing that values differ in each society and should be considered within their own context rather than being judged according to one's own culture.
This document discusses the meaning and components of culture. It defines culture as the knowledge, beliefs, arts, morals, laws, and customs acquired by people as members of society. Culture is divided into material and non-material aspects. Material culture refers to physical objects, while non-material culture consists of ideas, beliefs, values, and institutions. Culture manifests through symbols, heroes, rituals, and core values. The document also discusses several theories related to culture, including cultural determinism, cultural relativism, and cultural ethnocentrism.
Culture consists of learned patterns of behavior, knowledge, and beliefs that are shared by members of a society. It facilitates interaction between humans and their environment. Culture is transmitted between generations through social learning and is both explicit and implicit. It includes beliefs, values, norms, and institutionalized ways of living that provide solutions to problems of survival. While culture is shared within groups, it is also dynamic and can adapt to changes over time.

Cultural Relativism
Introduction
Relativism is the idea that claims that truth is a conditioned notion that does not go behold cultural boundaries. This idea came to existence since the Greek era about 2400 years ago. I chose this topic because its cultural relativism has a wrong claim that each culture has its own equal and distinct valid modes of thought, perception as well as a choice. The truth is that moral truth is universal and objective. It is not right to maintain that man’s opinion in a given society will define what is wrong and right. This work is meant to look at the importance of multiculturalism in the whole world. This will facilitate curbing of virtues such as racism, political correctness, and postmodernism (Donnelly, 1984). It will as well do away the philosophy of social engineering that tends to show western culture as the most superior when compared with other cultures.
Cultural Relativism is a mistaken idea claiming that there are no objective standards to judge our society because each culture has its accepted practices and beliefs. It is a wrong idea because no one can reflect the intolerance of society reflecting its indigenous world overview. There is no objective truth about every person at every time. No one moral code that is worse than or better than any other. Following cultural relativism is like objecting to Hitler and Nazism, South Africa’s Apartheid, Genital mutilation in African young girls, Mayan infant sacrifices. This is because each of these practices was justified by the worldview of the society in which they were practiced. By accepting cultural relativism, we would be prevented from criticizing our cultural practices like slavery because our culture recognized them at that time. There would also be no need for, or argument for, social progress (Teson, 1984). This would deter societal development. Racism, Multiculturalism, deconstructionism, social engineering, and political correctness are the descendants of cultural relativism.
Multiculturalism
The central idea of multiculturalism is that there is no culture that has higher values than the other. Multiculturalism, which is a politicked form of cultural relativism, does not accept the idea that there are general truths, rules or norms with respect to both morals and standards (Steinberg, 2009). Enlightenment beliefs in objectivity, principles of freedom and reason and evidence that equally apply to all are time gone.
Multiculturalism dismisses the world overview of Eurocentric Western perspective that is based on the contributions of the white males that are dead. It also rejects the western civilization significance because it claims that the western traditions are mostly racism, elitism and sexism thus they cause most of the current problems (Donnelly, 1984). On the other hand, it accepts the Romantic view of nature as bei.
This document discusses cultural relativism and its implications for intercultural communication. It begins by defining cultural relativism as the belief that cultural practices should be assessed within their own context rather than by outside standards. While cultural relativism promotes cultural understanding, it is not without challenges. Some argue cultures are not static and influence each other through globalization. The document concludes that cultural relativism supports principles of mutual understanding and non-imposition in intercultural exchange. Specific cultural elements can be evaluated individually but one should not view entire cultures as superior or inferior to others.
Culture refers to the shared ways of thinking, behaviors, and objects that together form a people's way of life. It includes both material and nonmaterial aspects that are learned and shared within a group. The main components of culture are values, norms, symbols, and language. Culture is transmitted between generations and helps shape human behavior and society. Cultural beliefs and practices can influence health by impacting behaviors and perceptions of wellness.
Culture can be defined in many ways but generally refers to the shared beliefs, values, customs, and artifacts of a group of people. Culture is learned and transmitted between generations through enculturation and influences how people think and behave. There are material and non-material aspects of culture, including tangible objects as well as intangible elements like values, beliefs, norms, language, and symbols. Culture is dynamic and evolves over time through cultural transmission and education, as well as contact between cultures through processes like acculturation and assimilation. Overall, culture plays an essential role in human societies by shaping our perceptions and providing structure, meaning, and a sense of identity.
The document discusses the concept of culture from a sociological perspective. It provides definitions of culture from several anthropologists and sociologists such as Tylor, Linton, Goodenough, and Geertz. Culture is described as the shared patterns of behavior, beliefs, and worldviews that are learned and transmitted between generations within human societies. The key characteristics of culture outlined include that culture is learned, unconscious, shared, integrated across different domains like kinship and religion, and symbolic in nature. Culture provides a lens that shapes how individuals perceive and evaluate the world.

2. What is Cultural Relativism?
Cultural relativism is the idea that a person’s beliefs,
values and practices should be understood based on that
person’s own culture, rather than be judged against the
criteria of another.
3. Cultural Relativism vs Cultural Perspective
• Cultural relativism is the idea that cultures should be
evaluated based on their own standards and values.
• Cultural perspective is the idea that cultures can be
analyzed and understood based on our own cultural values
and norms.
4. Cultural Relativism vis-a-vis
Ethnocentrism
Cultural relativism debunks the concept of ethnocentrism- an idea that has
long haunted men, in their attempt to answer which among cultural behavior
should be the standard, if there is any. It is in exact opposition to cultural
relativism.
Ethnocentrism is the practice of taking one’s own people, society and culture
to be vantage point from which all else is viewed and judge(Bruce & Yearley,
2006).
Xenocentrism is the belief that one’s own cultural features are a downgrade
in comparison to those of other cultures. Xenoxentric individuals value
commodities, style culture or even ideas from another country or culture other
than their own(Bell, 2017).
5. Moral Relativism
In effect, cultural relativism results to, if not implies moral
relativism which maintains that different societies (and ages)
hold distinct systems of morality and that there are no objective,
and transcultural criteria for judging between these systems
(Herder as cited in Sikka, 2011.)
6. 1. What is considered morally right
and wrong should be judge based
on cultural contexts.
1. Cultural relativism might fall prey
into the idea that universal
standards do not exist.
2. Cultural relativism is an answer
to cultural annihilation.
2. If universal standards do not
exist, so thus morality.
3. Cultural relativism promotes
multiculturalism.
3. Cultural relativism gives birth to
ethical relativism, which veers away
from the idea that there are objective
moral standards.
Cultural Relativism: Its Strength and Weaknesses
