Culture is a wide topic,different culture in different place,even in the same city,it must have the diversity of cultural in this city.
As far as the culture be concerned,because of the communication.It's undeniable that people need communication,need expression and need the understand of each other,so the diversity of culture is being more and more important.On a large scale,it's obvious that the diversity of culture is different from countries,such as cultural values,cultural dimensions,and something different insocial customs.Is it a complex culture?But how can we balance the diversity of culturel?
Firstly,talk about the cultural values.Differences between Chinese values and Western values are reflect clearly that culture diversity is impact of our communication.For instance,Chinese values and American values are different in conception of the self,the Chinese are collectivist,placing high value on group cooperation and individual modesty,but on the contrary,the Americans are individualist,placing high value on self-reliance and freedom from externally imposed constraints.It's a general phenomenon that so many Chinese are used to beginning their English conversation with "My English is poor."But at the beginning of a presentation,the American will say,"I believe that my presentation will be of great value to anybody present."This is a part of cultural diversity,just in conception of the self,it's obvious that we can't try to balance this phenomenon,but we can try to accommodate to each other,that's may be the first thing to balance the cultural diversity.
Secondly,talk about the cultural dimensions,it's sometimes amazing how different people in other cultures behave,as far as I know,cultural dimensions include power distance,masculinity and femininity,uncertainty avoidance and so on,as with the uncertainty avoidance,cultures of low uncertainty avoidance have less concern about ambiguity and uncertainty and have more tolerance for a variety of opinions,but in cultures with high uncertainty avoidance have low tolerance for uncertainty and ambiguity,like in France,cultures are used strong uncertainty avoidance,in contrast to The United States,Canada and so on.It's the habit,not a really problem,but because of that,you may find there is so many different things in the world,in the colorful world,never mind their behaviour,it's unmodifiable cultural dimensions,that's the second thing to balance the cultural diversity.
Lastly,talk about the social customs,I wanna say an important thing about the social customs,that is punctuality.In topic of punctuality,Americans tend to place more emphasis on punctuality than people in many other places do,but in Spain or India,an hour later or even two hours later is common,nobody thinks anything of it.That's a deeply gap between Americans and Spanish.For instance,if someone invented you to a party by host in six o'clock,usually the person arrived in fifteen minutes is American,in one hour is Spanish,in two hours is Indian.Different people in different countries have different culture,we must treat with different ways.As an American want to meet an Indian in seven o'clock,he/she may asks this Indian arrived in half past five o'clock.
In general,cultural diversity may be a problem between countries,but accommodation with each other can boost the cultural integration,so many cultures in one world,so colorful world we live in.
