CULTURAL AWARENESS AS THE BASIS OF CRITICAL THINKING
Journal Title: Вісник Львівського університету - Year 2018, Vol 18, Issue
Abstract
This paper aims to investigate how the individuals of different cultures face misunderstandings or conflicts during communication process and what is the cause of this. The article stresses that main basis of this is cultural differences that affect our interpretation. As the members of various cultures, we attach symbolic meanings to the events and objects. Of course, people from any two cultures make the same observation but their interpretation would be very different. This is because they attach various cultural meaning to what they see. The article also indicates the more general cultural differences like high and low context cultures by E. Hall and cultural dimensions by G. Hofstede.
