Internalization is the process through which a person takes in part of the culture or societal norms and makes it a part of his or her identity. It may involve taking in positive or negative aspects of one’s culture and could sometimes involve identifying with the oppressing power. Ho (1995) stated that it is only through understanding of client’s internalized culture that a social worker can begin to understand diversity issues for a client. According to him, the concept of internalized culture, refers to what client believes and identifies with that may be taken from a number of cultural systems such as ethnicity, age, sexual orientation, class. However, it is also crucial not to make assumptions that individuals are representations of their cultures.
While Rose showcases the effect of prejudice and its impact on conflict, he endures using his jury, the major influence personal experience has on people, and each other, making the decision from come personally. The play, being set in the 1950’s America, impacts on all the textual concerns that Rose presents. For instance, all the racial tension which created the rift in the 1950’s between different groups of people supported the significance of the play. Personal pressure is a factor which affects conflict, with its power and conformity it can impact on how others think and how they view the whole situation. However, personal experience is also a factor which impacts on every conflict, and from what the person has experienced from their own past, it can change the way that person views the other.
Belonging is a basic human need. A sense of belonging is usually founded in family. A healthy sense of belonging leads to self confidence and the expression of individuality. In order to belong a person needs acceptance and this can come from shared beliefs and experiences. Belonging may result in a deep connection to place.
We need to be physically safe in our environment. We also need to feel emotionally safe. Love and belonging: once our needs for safety and security are met we need love and belonging. We need to feel loved and that we belong in a social group. The need for love and belonging can be met in an ECCE setting by operating a key worker system.
Belonging and being accepted into a group can have both negative and positive effects on an individual’s sense of personal identity. As humans we naturally want to belong and feel accepted. We are usually brought up in a specific way and mingle with people that are similar to us and without knowing we form an invisible bond with these people. Whether it may be religious views, cultural similarities or similar up bringing all these factors help us to become the person we are. Lars Fr.
First, in describing autonomy/connection it is the ways that people desire for personal identity and space but also have a longing to be together and to belong to another person. Next, the novelty/predictability dynamic infers that we want for new and exciting things within our relationships yet we also wish to keep a routine and predictable relationship. Finally, the dynamic of openness/closedness describes the struggle in relationships for our desire to share different parts of our lives with others but also wanting to keep certain parts of our lives separate and private. Mattingly, Oswald, and Clark (2001) studied the importance of understanding why some people are more effective at maintaining relationships and how important that understanding is in helping people who are struggling with interpersonal issues. Their research included integrating individual differences such as relational-interdependent self-construal (RISC) and communal orientation and how this integration can benefit the relationship process.
Acceptance can either be for circumstances in a persons’ life or their feelings about the circumstances. Caring is important because the client should feel as if their issues are truly of concern to the counselor.
BELONGING The concept of Belonging is a multi-layered concept, particularly in the novel "The Namesake" by Jhumpa Lahiri, the news article "Burqas and Fries" by Erika Hayasaki and the play "Romeo and Juliet" by William Shakespeare. A person's sense of belonging is determined by the relationships they share with themselves and other people. Whether it's family, friends or society in general, humans have a desire to belong and be an important part of something greater than themselves. The ideology that one must belong to oneself before they can belong anywhere else, justifies this complexity of someone's Identity and the Relationships they share. These two concepts both encapsulate the notion of Belonging being a multi-layered concept and are fostered into each of the composer's texts coherently.
Yes, this sounds clichéd – but it nevertheless speaks of the conformity that the belonging process often demands in order to overcome the dilemmas associated with belonging. Thus, belonging in a sense can be paradoxical; That in order for one to ‘belong,’ one must often lose a sense of identity. However, in order to positively belong, one must first construct themselves as an individual to know where they belong. These notions of belonging are demonstrated in Heat and Dust, Eveline and Kindness. Belonging cannot be conferred or passively accept, but must be established once we construct ourselves individually.
Once these needs are met, people need safety and security, for example, a safe working environment by having law, limits and stability. Maslow theorised that only when the basic needs of emotional well being and physical wellbeing were met, people could concentrate on higher order needs of influence and personal development. Social needs refer to the feeling of belonging or being part of a group. Once that person feels like they belong, they develop a want to gain a degree of importance. Esteem needs can be categorised by external or internal motivators, self respect, accomplishment, self- esteem are all internal motivators.
