Description
Summary:Our world today is highly diverse and pluralistic, with a wide range of cultures and lifestyles, philosophies, and belief systems. Yet, we also experience the interconnections, the overlapping of cultures, rationalities and beliefs. It is not difficult to see the extremely intricate interconnectedness of human life across the planet and the oneness of humanity. The consciousness of human interconnectedness is changing the way we construct our identities and orient ourselves toward life in the world. Today, neither people nor institutions can avoid contact or knowledge of some cultures. Whether people accept, reject, or modify the concepts or values which they encounter from other societies and cultures, whatever they do will greatly affect their identities and the way they look at their own identities.
