Ethnocentricity

Today's word is a difficult one, but easy to understand in the same time. Ethnocentricity. There is a concept in sociology and anthropology, which means we begin to believe that the rules, values ans beliefs of our culture are the only ones that are valid. This is a very wrong mindset, a limiting one. Everyone around us have different rules and values than we do, and their are not better or worst tha our own. In the end, this is the main cause of the last centuries war, of the extremism or most of the crimes. Once i understood this i realized that i will give my child the experience needed to understand this concept. Being that reading, learning and ultimately living in another culture anytime an occasion rise, i think this is a must. What do you think about?
