PLANS: I plan on researching more about this topic to expand the information on its wiki page. I would like to have more headings with information that I have researched. I will begin by reading through my sources and making a summary version of what I will add. Hopefully I will add more information that is helpful to readers about how cultures get into cultural conflict, and how to respond. SUMMARY VERSION I will begin by discussing how cultures work, taking from Michelle LeBaron's article. -culture is multi-layered -culture is constantly in flux -culture is elastic -Culture is largely below the surface, influencing identities and meaning-making, or who we believe ourselves to be and what we care about -Cultural influences and identities become important depending on context I will then get into how to respond to cultural conflict, taking again from Michelle LeBaron's article -Cultural fluency: familiarity with cultures and awareness of:

     -Communication,
     -Ways of naming, framing, and taming conflict,
     -Approaches to meaning making,
     -Identities and roles.

-High context communication -low context communication -people have a range of starting points for making sense of their lives, including:

     -universalist (favoring rules, laws, and generalizations) and particularist (favoring exceptions, relations, and contextual evaluation)
     -specificity (preferring explicit definitions, breaking down wholes into component parts, and measurable results) and diffuseness (focusing on patterns, the big picture, and process over outcome)  
     -inner direction (sees virtue in individuals who strive to realize their conscious purpose) and outer direction (where virtue is outside each of us in natural rhythms, nature, beauty, and relationships)  
     -synchronous time (cyclical and spiraling) and sequential time (linear and unidirectional)

I'll be looking forward to your expansion. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 05:48, 11 March 2013 (UTC)

Organizing the article's page will make it easy for viewers to see what the main points of this conflict are. Also, I like your approach on breaking down the issue entirely. Not only do conflicts exist between cultures and within cultures, but you brought up a valid point on how to respond to the issue. The bullet points that you broke down regarding areas that will need to be taken into perspective are very key points that will really address greater causes of conflict. I think you have a great foundation to start writing your final draft to add to the article's page. Great job and can not wait to see the final project.

Redirection from 'Cultural invasion'

'Cultural invasion' is redirected to this article. I don't claim to understand how it has been redirected. However, I suggest that cultural invasions don't necessarily result in cultural conflict. Also, this article doesn't appear to include a link to the provenance of cultural invasion. For editors who might be interested, I have inserted the provenance of the concept in Note 3 of Canadian cultural protectionism, which cites 'cultural invasion'.John Desmond (talk) 13:29, 20 October 2024 (UTC)

The implication of my above comment, which I should have identified, is my belief that 'Cultural invasion' merits its own article. However, I perceive it as a vague concept, which is why I haven't submitted an article for it.John Desmond (talk) 14:59, 20 October 2024 (UTC)
