Appiah's Ideas on Widely Varied Cultural ConceptsAs far as Appiah is concerned, discernment about any of the characteristics of value is said to be based on the context of the culture. which is honored with. The reason why one society seems different in some way compared to another society is because values ​​differ and a difference in value will always result in a difference in societal behaviors. This has, however, been influenced by issues of globalization, where interactions with other people from another society have shaped new societal values ​​and influenced the way people define certain things. These interactions lead to the adoption of new values ​​as well as the acceptance of the importance of the beliefs of others. His whole point is that people will always be known, treated and separated based on their beliefs, values ​​and norms in their culture (Pratt, 1991). The vision of a particular people's culture will always be valued as long as it is. not create conflicts or imperialism between different societal cultures. The importance of cultural identity is that it gives length to the culture that enables sustenance and, in doing so, serves as a protective agent against the values ​​of others that can influence a society. However, Appiah warned that such a view could be unhealthy as people think they are better than others. He indicated that exploring the cultures of other societies and being tolerant in learning about them can help people from different cultures live well with each other (Pratt, 1991). Application to the analysis of the culture of Mary Louise Pratt Mary Louise Pratt is for the idea of ​​replacing the Western world course with the alternative of multiculture...... middle of paper ...... opportunities and freedoms of life that those from privileged groups view with a sense of entitlement. Hierarchies of race and class make it harder for the less powerful to be heard. The cultural differences of privileged races are widely exposed in the media and books, giving them credibility, while those of inferior races are less emphasized. Dominant races are allowed to ignore the cultures, perspectives, and languages ​​of other races without suffering negative consequences (McIntosh, 1989). Peggy McIntosh argues that silence and denial of the existence of white privilege prevents an overhaul of the social system that could create a more just society. Works Cited Pratt, M. L. (1991).
