";s:4:"text";s:28313:"Some of them I discussed below. [31] Since ethnocentrism implicated a strong identification with one's in-group, it mostly automatically leads to negative feelings and stereotyping to the members of the outgroup, which can be confused with racism. Legend has it that, on a field trip to the Baffin Islands in 1883, Boas would pass the frigid nights reading Kant's Critique of Pure Reason. Ethnocentrism is an important concept in the study of intergroup relations. Examples like this abound on many Hollywood films. Blind spots … In European research the term racism is not linked to ethnocentrism because Europeans avoid applying the concept of race to humans; meanwhile, using this term is not a problem for American researchers. [5], Over time, ethnocentrism developed alongside the progression of social understandings by people such as social theorist, Theodore W. Adorno. For example, at an intergroup level, this term is seen as a consequence of a conflict between groups; while at the individual level, in-group cohesion and out-group hostility can explain personality traits. Thomas F. Pettigrew, in Encyclopedia of Social Measurement, 2005 Summary and Conclusion. Numerous explanations propose that people are ethnocentric because they are afraid, threatened, and insecure, and find security in the group and its ethnocentrism. [15][16], The ethnocentric classification of "primitive" were also used by 19th and 20th century anthropologists and represented how unawareness in cultural and religious understanding changed overall reactions to non-Western societies. This natural circumstance can be expected to … [11] When people use their own culture as a parameter to measure other cultures, they often tend to think that their culture is superior and see other cultures as inferior and bizarre. Previous models demonstrated how ethnocentrism might evolve … [23], Alternative or opposite perspectives could cause individuals to develop naïve realism and be subject to limitations in understandings. Delegitimization is the process of categorizing groups into extremely negative social categories and excluding them from acceptability. Thus, it is common to be exposed to content based on Westerners' point of view. "[9] In the War and Other Essays (1911), he wrote that "the sentiment of cohesion, internal comradeship, and devotion to the in-group, which carries with it a sense of superiority to any out-group and readiness to defend the interests of the in-group against the out-group, is technically known as ethnocentrism. [13] In this way, ethnocentrism is a term not only limited to anthropology but also can be applied to other fields of social sciences like sociology or psychology. It is natural that people believe that the way they think and act, or their culture is the most appropriate. Ethnocentrism in social science and anthropology—as well as in colloquial English discourse—means to apply one's own culture or ethnicityas a frame of reference in order to judge other cultures, practices, behaviors, beliefs, and people, instead of using the standards of the particular culture involved. These organizations can include the formation of the United Nations; aimed to maintain international relations, and the Olympic Games; a celebration of sports and friendly competition between cultures.

Behaviors associated with ethnocentrism include cooperation with members of the in-group, but not out-groups. Example: Eating bugs is gross. [31] Finally, scholars agree that avoiding stereotypes is an indispensable prerequisite to overcome ethnocentrism; and mass media play a key role regarding this issue. Both of these juxtaposing attitudes are also a result of a process known as social identification and social counter-identification. Following Kant, Boas pointed out the starving Eskimos who, because of their religious beliefs, would not hunt seals to feed themselves, thus showing that no pragmatic or material calculus determined their values. He further characterized ethnocentrism as often leading to pride, vanity, the belief in one's own group's superiority, and contempt for outsiders. Experts on the field propose that a way of overcoming ethnocentrism is to avoid the use of stereotypes in films. Ethnocentrism is a belief in the superiority of your own culture. The classifications of ethnocentrism originate from the studies of anthropology. Then, it focuses on theories that assume that humans are ethnocentric because they want to feel good about themselves, and this is achieved through a sense of superiority of one’s ingroup over others, as well as those theories that assume that ethnocentrism is useful to ethnic groups, and especially their elites and socially dominant people, when they dominate or exploit other ethnic groups or when the elites dominate or exploit the rest of their own ethnic group for self-aggrandising purposes. [14] However, the anthropocentric interpretations initially took place most notably in the 19th century when anthropologists began to describe and rank various cultures according to the degree to which they had developed significant milestones, such as monotheistic religions, technological advancements, and other historical progressions. Most rankings were strongly influenced by colonization and the belief to improve societies they colonized, ranking the cultures based on the progression of their western societies and what they classified as milestones. He taught social sciences at the Yale University. However, the term "ethnocentrism" does not necessarily involve a negative view of the others' race or indicate a negative connotation. Root cause: Ethnocentrism has some root causes from where it started and become the main problem of the whole world. Mead and Benedict were two of Boas's students. [32] The presence of ethnocentrism in media content creates an issue in the exchange of messages in the communication process. [4], The social identity approach suggests that ethnocentric beliefs are caused by a strong identification with one's own culture that directly creates a positive view of that culture. First, it reviews theories that propose that ethnocentrism is primarily, or even exclusively, shaped by factors outside the individual, such as socialisation, social norms, and social representations. [25] Scholars have recently demonstrated that individuals are more likely to develop in-group identification and out-group negatively in response to intergroup competition, conflict, or threat. Ethnocentrism exists virtually everywhere, including the United States. But ethnocentrism can lead to disdain or dislike for other cultures and could cause misunderstanding and conflict. In that work, Kant argued that human understanding could not be described according to the laws that applied to the operations of nature, and that its operations were therefore free, not determined, and that ideas regulated human action, sometimes independent of material interests. In his 1976 book on evolution, The Selfish Gene, evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins writes that "blood-feuds and inter-clan warfare are easily interpretative in terms of Hamilton's genetic theory. Ethnocentrism denotes a positive orientation toward those sharing the same ethnicity and a negative one toward others. [4], Although the causes of ethnocentric beliefs and actions can have varying roots of context and reason, the effects of ethnocentrism has had both negative and positive effects throughout history. [33], Judging another culture solely by the values and standards of one's own culture, Naturalism in Sociology of the Turn of the Century (by Alexander Hofman and Alexander Kovalev), A History of Classical Sociology.

Historical examples of these negative effects of ethnocentrism are The Holocaust, the Crusades, the Trail of Tears, and the internment of Japanese Americans. Researchers had found that ethnocentrism is dysfunctional in communication and similar fields because the lack of acceptance of other cultures leads to the creation of barriers for people of different backgrounds to interact with each other. The term "ethnocentrism" was first applied in the social sciences by American sociologist William G. There’s nothing wrong with et… To help, Malinowski would develop the theory of functionalism as guides for producing non-ethnocentric studies of different cultures. Ethnocentrism is the act of judging every other culture by your own culture's standards. ...Ethnocentrism Ethnocentrism is the belief that one’s culture is the centre of the world thus considering all other cultures as being inferior. You may also be viewed as narrow minded. Finally, the chapter discusses relevant explanations that tend to focus equally on fear and self-aggrandisement as causes of ethnocentrism. These events were a result of cultural differences reinforced inhumanely by a superior, majority group. These theories have helped to distinguish ethnocentrism as a means to better understand the behaviors caused by in-group and out-group differentiation throughout history and society.[8]. ... High l evels o f patriotism may also cause this result. [19], Scholars generally agree that Boas developed his ideas under the influence of the German philosopher Immanuel Kant. [24] These characteristics can also lead to individuals to become subject to ethnocentrism, when referencing out-groups, and black sheep effect, where personal perspectives contradict those from fellow in-groupers. "[10] According to Boris Bizumic it is a popular misunderstanding that Sumner originated the term ethnocentrism, stating that in actuality he brought ethnocentrism into the mainstreams of anthropology, social science, and psychology through his English publications. [19] Boas and anthropologist Bronisław Malinowski argued that any human science had to transcend the ethnocentric views that could blind any scientist's ultimate conclusions. The most common driver of intercultural conflict derives from something known as ‘ethnocentrism’. Comparisons were mostly based on what the colonists believed as superior and what their western societies have accomplished. [4] In his 1906 book, Folkways, Sumner describes ethnocentrism as "the technical name for the view of things in which one's own group is the center of everything, and all others are scaled and rated with reference to it." Ethnocentrism is the belief that one's culture is superior to another culture, and that their own culture showcases the best way to live life. William G. Sumner, who coined the term ethnocentrism, is famously known as America’s first sociology professor. People with the best intentions sometimes travel to a society to “help” its people, because … Another group of explanations proposes that people are ethnocentric because it helps them increase their own or their group’s importance, esteem, prestige, power, and material well-being. Ethnocentrism comes from our judgement of other's cultures. * Before the prophet hood of Muhammad (saw) … With its omnipresence throughout history, ethnocentrism has always been a factor in how different cultures and groups related to one another. Cinema has been around our society since the beginning of the 20th century, and it is an important tool that allow to entertain and/or educate the viewer. Ethnocentrism thus is conceived critically as involving overgeneralizations about cultures and their inhabitants, others' or one's own, on the basis … The Ethnocentrism Concept The term "ethnocentrism" stems from a more general concept developed by Sumner [1906]. [27][28], The positive examples of ethnocentrism throughout history have aimed to prohibit the callousness of ethnocentrism and reverse the perspectives of living in a single culture. Ethnocentrism can explain the basis of one's identity by excluding the outgroup that is the target of ethnocentric sentiments and used as a way of distinguishing oneself from other groups that can be more or less tolerant. Scholars believe this term was coined by Polish sociologist Ludwig Gumplowicz in the 19th century, although alternate theories suggest that he only popularized the concept as opposed to inventing it.

[33] However, that exchange of information can be hindered by ethnocentrism because it can diminish the interest of interacting with people from other cultures. The ethnocentric person, when assigning status or value to various cultures, will automatically assign to their own culture the highest status or value, and therefore believe that it is intrinsically better than others. Others reject other point of views within their own culture, and see … In Adorno's The Authoritarian Personality, he and his colleagues of the Frankfurt School established a broader definition of the term as a result of "in group-out group differentiation," stating that ethnocentrism "combines a positive attitude toward one's own ethnic/cultural group (the in-group) with a negative attitude toward the other ethnic/cultural group (the out-group)."

[19] In his 1911 book The Mind of Primitive Man, Boas wrote that: It is somewhat difficult for us to recognize that the value which we attribute to our own civilization is due to the fact that we participate in this civilization, and that it has been controlling all our actions from the time of our birth; but it is certainly conceivable that there may be other civilizations, based perhaps on different traditions and on a different equilibrium of emotion and reason, which are of no less value than ours, although it may be impossible for us to appreciate their values without having grown up under their influence. A study that used several in-group and out-group orientations have shown a correlation between national identity, consumer cosmopolitanism, consumer ethnocentrism, and the methods consumer choose their products, whether imported or domestic.[30].
