World Views Exercise #2

 World Views Exercise #2 – Cultural Reading + WViews quiz



Week#4 – World Views Exercise #2 – Cultural Reading + WViews quiz

 chosen article ‘Dress Code' .




 The conflict

This article analyse the conflict of dress code between locals and expatriates. It shows how locals are angry from how foreign people dress which unacceptable in UAE culture without any knowing from these people about locals feelings.As a result, it creates a chain of  negative charges between two side which can lead to high risk of conflict for a long term .





  The basis/ the cause of the problem

             the cause of this problem is lack of understanding the culture which lead to conflict. It is unacceptable to wear dress that make chest are appear or wearing transparent clothes and nudity at the beach . Both side blamed. locals needs to know that these people when they dress tight and short , they doing it in there home with out any shame because it is normal in there countries. Also expatriates need to aware that they are in Muslim country and Muslim locals are sensitive with these clothes.
         



       The cultural View

        the cultural View(s) (I/G; H/S; P/F) behind the conflict is H/S because UAE culture consider who wear like foreign people as a shame. They shamed people who wear tight clothes or short or chest appear because this is what they leaned from first day of their life. Because of lack of understanding culture most foreign people did not recognize the problem until they read newspaper or saw news on TV channel . Foreign people considered that as a normal behavior because most of them came from I/G .

         Best solution 
    
     the best solution is to unite all governments to educate their people about other culture staring from primary school, ending with high school. Also every airline can form brochure about their culture and give it to foreign visitors . In addition, every country can print their opinion on how to act in their culture and what they like and don't like in their country.



B. My  WorldViews quiz

     By analyzing worldview below it result that, I'm open minded man with no P/F as it shown in my world view quiz. which is total of 4, So it is barely effect me because in this amazing country "UAE", they stay away from that concept and giving freedom and safe environment to residents. As it shown below H/S has total of 7 which can effect me. Shame is enormous thing in my culture every one rear that . I rather die than get shame my self in front of my family and my society. I/G ,total of 11, is the one who control my life.
