	Social identity - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Where personal identity is salient, the individual will relate to others in an interpersonal manner, dependent on their character traits and any personal relationship existing between the individuals.
		Social identity is a theory formed by Henri Tajfel and John Turner to understand the psychological basis of intergroup discrimination.
		As developed by Tajfel, Social Identity Theory is a diffuse but interrelated group of social psychological theories concerned with when and why individuals identify with, and behave as part of, social groups, adopting shared attitudes to outsiders.

	Electronic Magazine of Multicultural Education
		By sharing their cultural artifacts and personal narratives, preservice teachers integrate the twelve academic disciplines, link the academic standards to the ten NCSS thematic standards, and fulfill social studies goals and purposes.
		Cultural Artifact “Me Boxes” empower pre-service teachers to connect social studies with self, others, and society through the exchange of personal narratives.
		Importantly, narratives serve a critical function in both eliciting and developing the ability to see, understand, and value the complexity and richness of human lives—the essence of social studies and multicultural education.

	Rhetoric II: Sample Annotated Bibliography
		The books in this section discuss intercultural communication in terms of cultural dimensions and show how these dimensions apply to communication in multinational business settings, at the personal level, in interpersonal interaction, and at the national level.
		In contrast to Adler, the articles in this book focus exclusively on the personal aspects of and preparation for intercultural experiences.
		She begins with a discussion of variations in cultural orientation along six dimensions--individual, world, human relations, activity, time, and space--and the impact of these variations on organizations.

	A SOCIOLOGICAL SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY: NEEDS OF SELVES AND SOCIETIES
		At this personal level, integration also means a consensus toward the common purposes and values toward which all social members are oriented and around which all collective life is organized.
		The cross-cultural variations of this hypothesized drive to succeed and excel foreshadows our discussions of cultural personality types.
		In addition to the tension between nature and nurture there is the old dilemma of individual and community: the tension between personal freedom and social control.

		What I got from that was that he was a cultural person, with Indian cultural beliefs, and because he was that way, he was considered to be odd and strange, and needed to be worked on to change his ideas about spirituality, the role of Native Americans, and this kind of thing.
		But if you’re never had anything ever taken away from you, ever, and all of a sudden they take Flo Barnett away J: That was the first time I recall, because it was personal to David Miscavige, and he took interest in it and that was it.
		The one person who was told, I forget her name, a little blonde girl, she was told to speak to his wife about her smelling, and she actually went to Bruce Swadine’s wife and said that cologne you are wearing is irritating, it’s stinking up the whole place.

	Personal-Social-Cultural Perspective
		The following framework for cultural awareness and action in physical education is modeled after the Levels of Responsibility Model authored by Hellison, upon which much of the personal and social responsibility strategies in this guide are based.
		The challenge in physical education is to move from these token forms of recognition to a philosophy and practice that fully embody principles of multiculturalism.
		While the outline is not based on a firm foundation of curriculum experience as the Hellison model is, nonetheless it may afford teachers a framework in which to consider their developmental work with students in terms of cultural awareness and action.

	I'm Not Boring You, Am I?: June 2004
		In any event, since these separate blogs often refer to each other, and since the topic blog is generally the primary source of recruitment of readers to the personal blog, they may be considered analytically part of the same output.
		The ease with which blogs can be initiated and maintained may mitigate this tendency to some extent, since many people keep both a topic specific blog and a separate personal blog, but as multiple entries in multiple blogs becomes onerous, the temptation to merge them into one commentary may increase over time.
		I'm off to Halifax for the SCOS (Standing Conference on Organizational Symbolism), followed by a couple of weeks holiday so may not be able to blog for a bit, depending on whether conference has internet facilities available.

	Cultural appropriation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cultural appropriation is the adoption of elements of cultural expression of one societal group, such as forms of dress or personal adornment, music and art, religion, language, or behavior, by an external group, who often ignore the underlying purpose and intent of the expression.
		When combined with cultural appropriation, particularly if the cultural expression in its original context has attendant religious or spiritual value, or is an important factor in forging group identity, some people may feel that the subject culture has been cheapened, co-opted, or made the appropriation a "meaningless" part of pop culture.
		Obvious examples include tattoos of Hindu gods, Polynesian tribal iconography, Chinese characters, or Celtic bands worn by people who have no interest in, or understanding of, their cultural significance.

	Moral relativism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In philosophy, moral relativism takes the position that moral or ethical propositions do not reflect absolute and universal moral truths but instead are relative to social, cultural, historical or personal references, and that there is no single standard by which to assess an ethical proposition's truth.
		Moral relativism, in contrast, contends that opposing moral positions have no truth value, and that there is no preferred standard of reference by which to judge them.
		Moral relativism is often described as a temporal idea of the "new" that conflicts with absolute moral standards of tradition; however, moral relativism encompasses views and arguments that have been held for a very long time in many different cultures (for example, in the ancient Taoist writings of Chuang Tzu).

	Tourism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Tourism is the act of travel for the purpose of recreation, and the provision of services for this act.
		For a century, domestic tourism was the norm, with foreign travel being reserved for the rich or the culturally curious.
		Educational tourism: may involve travelling to an education institution, a wooded retreat or some other destination in order to take personal-interest classes, such as cooking classes with a famous chef or crafts classes.

	Cultural imperialism in the late 20th century
		In relation to the Third World, cultural imperialism can be defined as the systematic penetration and domination of the cultural life of the popular classes by the ruling class of the West in order to reorder the values, behavior, institutions and identity of the oppressed peoples to conform with the interests of the imperial classes.
		Cultural imperialism focuses on youth not only as a market but also for political reasons: to undercut a political threat in which personal rebellion could become political revolt against economic as well as cultural forms of control.
		Cultural imperialism sought to promote ideological confusion and political disorientation by reversing the meaning of political language.

	How Conservatives Can Set the Cultural Agenda
		Cultural conservatives run a great risk when they frame a debate over who has the best and strongest personal commitment to family life.
		And cultural conservatives seeking to revive civil society must make clear that they don't expect everyone to join a Rotary Club or volunteer at soup kitchens to solve society's problems.
		Conservatives now have the opportunity to usher in a new era of self-government that relies on strong families, active religious faith, rejuvenated civic associations, accountable local governments, a vigorous market economy, and private charities to help those who fall between the cracks.

	Personal Space for Students in Classrooms
		The characteristics of personal space as it relates to gender, age, personality, acquaintance, and cultural difference are extensively presented.

		This study compared the personal space requirements of third and fourth grade students of a traditional classroom environment to those of an open classroom environment.

	Advertising - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Personal recommendations ("bring a friend", "sell it by zealot"), spreading buzz, or achieving the feat of equating a brand with a common noun ("Hoover" = "vacuum cleaner", "Kleenex" = "tissue") -- these must provide the stuff of fantasy to the holder of an advertising budget.
		This branding attributes a certain personality or reputation to a brand, termed brand equity, which is distinctive from its competition.
		Generally, brand equity is a measure of the volume and homogeneity of, as well as positive and negative characteristics of, individual and cultural ideas associated with the product.

	Borrowed Power
		Not surprisingly, the most personal and passionate views on cultural appropriation originate from within a given controversy.
		Cultural appropriation may well be `a very complex subject,' as the editors assert, but this book does much to illuminate many of the issues and acts that account for that complexity.
		Instances of appropriation can be found in a number of cultural `domains,' and have been variously addressed by scholars in the fields of anthropology, history, sociology, ethnomusicology, postmodern literary theory, political science, and cultural studies.

	Cliff McLucas sets out his arts funding agenda for Wales
		Culturally, Wales is surely one of the richest nations in these islands - with a specific and unique historical and cultural backdrop, much of it created through our own Welsh language - but we currently don't mobilise it in any meaningful or co-ordinated way.
		If one is so inclined, it also invites one to entertain more contemporary notions of cultural studies, the construction of cultural identities and so on, and for them to be included in the debate.
		The images and materials that this cultural portfolio generates seems to me to be the kind of stuff that could immediately stand for Wales and its identity as a bilingual, contemporary small nation in Europe, and as such needs to be "managed" in a creative and entrepreneurial manner by somebody - a Minister for Culture.

		As a result, behavior is influenced more by social norms and social obligations than by personal desires (Triandis, 1986); cooperation and social harmony are emphasized (Waterman, 1984) and individual effort and achievement are expected to contribute to the collective good (Laaksonen, 1988).
		Third, applying a psychological measure developed in one culture to another creates three problems: (1) the psychometric properties of the measure may differ across the two cultures; (2) emics operating in the new culture are not included in the measure, and (3) etic dimensions may be measured improperly in the new culture.

		The paradox of American politics is that the country is shifting to cultural conservatism, yet the American people, and even many conservatives themselves, are deeply suspicious of the cultural message of conservative leaders.
		One of the great cultural achievements of conservatives in the last 15 years has been to convince political leaders from across the ideological spectrum that government ought not discriminate against religious believers and institutions.

		The advent of the era of the personal computer was acknowledged by Time magazine in 1982, when they broke with tradition by choosing the PC as their "Man of the Year." By the late 1980s, technology advances made it feasible to build a small computer that an individual could own and use.
		Prior to the PC, computers were designed for (and only affordable by) companies who attached terminals for multiple users to a single large computer whose resources were shared among all users.

		We as educators can nurture student self-direction and personal efficacy by providing students with opportunities before, during and after instruction to exercise some control of their own learning.
		Further, many parents are concerned that a reorientation toward student self-direction and personal efficacy will diminish the influence of home and school and inadequately prepare students for the work force.

		Superficial cultural appropriation is deeply offensive on several levels and to several parties, principally because you're not prepared to have a relationship with what you are taking from on its own terms.
		Hmm, I don’t think cultural appropriation is exclusively a new age phenomena (although various systems of new age thought and practice may rely on it)—like someone stated above, the appropriation of aspects of foreign cultures into a specific culture has been going on for a long time.
		I’d differentiate between syncretisation happening as an organic process within a culture, often taking place over hundreds of years and led by differing spiritual needs and personal experience, and the arguably consumerist pick and mix approach to the worlds spirituality that you get in new age and chaos circles.
