Book Fundamentals of Comparative and Intercultural Philosophy

Download or read book Fundamentals of Comparative and Intercultural Philosophy written by Lin Ma and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 2016-03-25 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discusses the conditions of possibility for intercultural and comparative philosophy, and for crosscultural communication at large. This innovative book explores the preconditions necessary for intercultural and comparative philosophy. Philosophical practices that involve at least two different traditions with no common heritage and whose languages have very different grammatical structure, such as Indo-Germanic languages and classical Chinese, are a particular focus. Lin Ma and Jaap van Brakel look at the necessary and not-so-necessary conditions of possibility of interpretation, comparison, and other forms of interaction and how we can speak of similarities and differences in this context. The authors posit that it is necessary to dissolve the question of universalism versus relativism by replacing the ideal language paradigm with a paradigm of family resemblances and that it is not necessary to share a common language to engage in comparison. Numerous case studies are presented, including many comparisons of Western and Chinese concepts.

Book A Review of the Intercultural Paradigm

Download or read book A Review of the Intercultural Paradigm written by Gebhard Deissler and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2011-11-02 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Document from the year 2011 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, , language: English, abstract: As this research comes to its provisional end, after an exploration of the inner-outer horizons of culture in quest for a missing link for its management in line with the requirements of our global, multicultural age in global business, geopolitics and other material and immaterial systems, we may assume that, based on a more complete representation of human nature we are approaching more comprehensive cultural solutions as well. If one succeeds in embedding the intercultural acquis in the holistic structure of man with its naturally beneficial axiomatic for the individual and society, locally, regionally and globally, the hoped for global cultural Eldorado is within human reach, whatever negativity may seem to bar the way. We have extended human cultural awareness so as to understand it within the context of life as a whole, where it reveals itself as a factor of wholistic human identity, evolution and enhanced creativity, unless it is mismanaged due to limited cultural awareness.

Download or read book Intercultural Errors Versus Transcultural Solutions written by Gebhard Deissler and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2011 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Document from the year 2011 in the subject Pedagogy - Intercultural Pedagogy, course: Interkulturelles Management, language: English, abstract: The ethnocentric, the cultural/intercultural and the transcultural mindsets respectively create a cultural wave that spreads across and impacts the sea of time and space and thereby those who share that time-space continuum. The ethnocentric perception is not aware of this interconnectedness, while the cultural or intercultural mindset can have variable degrees of awareness of it but cannot transcend the divisionary logic of this perceiver's creative logic. Only the transculturalist is fully aware of the interconnected field, where the perceiver's consciousness co-creates the cultural world. Due to his awareness of a culture integrative transcultural dimension of his constitution he can transcend the interculturalists fragmentation of the world by an integrative momentum based on a solid multidimensional scientific axiomatic.

Book Principles of Multicultural Counseling and Therapy

Download or read book Principles of Multicultural Counseling and Therapy written by Uwe P. Gielen and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2008-06-19 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an era of globalization characterized by widespread migration and cultural contacts, psychologists, counselors, and other mental health professionals face a unique challenge: how does one practice successfully when working with clients from so many different backgrounds? Gielen, Draguns, and Fish argue that an understanding of the general principles of multicultural counseling is of great importance to all practitioners. The lack of this knowledge can have several negative consequences during therapy, including differences in expectations between counselor and client, misdiagnosis of the client’s concerns, missed non-verbal cues, and the client feeling that she has been misunderstood. This volume focuses on the general nature of cultural influences in counseling rather than on counseling specific ethnic groups. Counseling practices from all over the world, not just those of Western society, are explored. Bringing together the work of a diverse group of international experts, the editors have compiled a volume that is not only concise and teachable, but also an essential guidebook for all mental-health professionals.
