Gaining new information about people or other groups b. Diffusing more serious conflict c. Increasing cohesiveness Conflict as Destructive: Assumptions: a. conflict is a destructive disturbance of the peace, the social system should be adjusted to the needs of members; rather, members should adapt to established values When conflict does arise, the strong spiritual value of pacifism dictates a nonresistant response-often avoidance. Ting-Toomey (1991): suggests that these orientations are based on different cultural values for identity and face saving. Low conflict cultures 1. Interpersonal practices that build security and trust 2. Strong linkage between individual and community interests 3.
Coordinated efforts of the international community to achieve and advance a common standard and international system of law to protect the human dignity”. The role of this community is to promote and engage by participating within their community. Support such issues as racial justice, religion and culture differences among the citizens. As this community continues to expand we want to be even more proactive in maintaining inclusive activities that build common interest while maintaining respect for differences. It is important that culture diversity is not lost but yet is advocates for its uniqueness instead of stereotyping one another.
Josiah Royce loyalty theory requires you to scrutinize the actions and aims of our communities and others and to work to reform the disloyal aspects. The philosophy of loyalty calls upon us to embrace and create more cosmopolitan and inclusive communities. However any human community no matter how devoted they may be to loyalty, is not going to be perfect and may even fall
That is where there is much debate on the idea of contextualization and if we, as messengers should do it or not. I think the way Muller goes about describing contextualization is great, he encourages us to strip down our cultural ideals and look at the culture we are in focusing on the values of that culture; at the same time he also informs us that quite simply, there are certain things about other cultures that will never allow you to be the same as the people you are with and instead of taking that as this awful thing, we take it, address the current place we are at, and from there we share the gospel to the likes of the relationship we share with the culture we are in. Overall, I can say that in reading The Messenger I was challenged and reminded
World order is defined under the Uniter Nations Charter as the “maintenance of international peace and security”. It generally refers to a system of internationally set arrangements preserving global political stability. The notion of world order is important as it promotes peace and resolves conflicts between and within nations. As numerous conflicts arise, whether it may involve social, political, moral or religious differences, world order is present to stimulate peace and security as well as promote economic stability and social progress for all nations. International law, international systems as well as principles currently exist to aim to resolve disputes, however the compliance predominantly relies on the discretion of state sovereignty and jus cogens, which both act as barriers in achieving world order.
If we don’t follow the laws, regulations, and conventions then we take responsibility for the action and accept the consequences. The fifth CRT principle speaks of support responsibility to globalization. The business should support improvement of domestic rules and regulations where they unfairly get in the way of global trade (Caux Round Table, 2003). This could be compared to White’s second guideline regarding honesty. Even though we will often be unsuccessful, our objective must be total honesty (White, 1978).
Perhaps more so than Emotivists, Prescriptivists see ethical language as fairly meaningful. They believe that the terms used are able to create absolute rules that everyone ought to follow. It would seem that ethical language is seen by many as very meaningful, although for varying reasons. However agent centred theories such as Virtue Ethics would argue that our main focus of morality should be on becoming as virtuous as possible, rather than deciding what is meant by ethical language. Therefore it would seem that perhaps morality should be more focussed on individuals’ actions rather then defining what is meant by ‘good’ and
To come to an understanding and to stir action on a subject it is important to be friendly, to understand where they are coming from, to instill empathy, and to work towards a common goal. Doing all this with a calm voice is most effective. King brought a great awareness to the problem and a light for the future. To continue on we should address the issue bold and strong like King did but also in the friendly manner in which he set his voice. To yell and point fingers and call names will get us nowhere.
They can be successful by working together as one. As a citizen, be trustworthy and follow your natural instinct of being good person. As a government, don’t be seen as a domination force. Trust the people and leave them alone. If a country is directed intelligently, its natives will be content.
Basically, in the marjuana debate, the generations are all offering the choice of whether or not we as a society want to have open acceptance to each of us as humans to accept people having choice on the matter or not, which is an important value since creating that choice is a big choice on whether we want to be free or bound to conventional tradition that dictates that it is immoral to have drugs period while not considering the reasons why people take drugs, whether to calm themselves or make them ignore their problems. Besides the consideration of social values, cultural values are also important as
