COMPARE AND CONTRAST

Compare and Contrast

[Writer's institute]Summary

Both the articles begin by stating the main reasons behind the mindset that would create a division between races in terms of social and cultural differences. These disparities are expounded by explaining the differences of Eastern and Western culture. The authors of both the articles highlight the main identifiable differences that exist although they unanimously dismiss that distinctions on the grounds of culture need to be highlighted. They do this mainly because of the belief that all cultures possess the tendency to act as others do and accept that humans have an inherent trait to do whatever they can do.

Human beings can achieve almost anything if they have the resolve and determination to do so. In this context, Piller's assessment is a little diverse for the fact that that it points out the existing differences that can encourage inequality. However, she also highlights the various sources of miscommunication which have apparently resulted in the creation of existing linguistic and racial stereotypes.

Perhaps the most significant element that has played a pivotal role in the formation of such stereotypes is the clear difference in ideologies. The dissimilarity between the collectivistic and individualistic approach is mainly the culprit. I have personally witnessed and experienced the long-standing effects of this conflict of civilizations within my own circle of friends and I can easily claim that such differences have widened the rift between the perceptions and thought patterns of the east and west. There exists a pressing need to create awareness among the general masses regarding the hatred that spouted as a result of such differences. This is because human conditions cannot be arbitrated through cultural backgrounds as they are more dependent upon the abilities of an individual or their desire for change. Those individuals who are opposed to change often tend to be problematic to society as they seek their own good through such behavior. It is the presence of these capabilities that ends up changing their human and economic condition.
