Misconception of Identifying Ethnic Groups by Cultural Elements

Misconception of Identifying Ethnic Groups by Cultural Elements
The common misconception in relating ethnicity and culture is to define ethnic groups by cultural elements. Firstly, ethnic group is a category of people which is bound together by common characteristics that differentiate them from other groups. On the other hand, culture is a system of knowledge shared by a relatively large group of people. Culture consists of values, beliefs, religion, experiences, behaviours and traditions acquired by a group of people that is passed down generations by generations (Browaeys & Price, 2008). In my essay, I would like to clarify that ethnic groups cannot be defined by their cultural elements with several examples.
Commonly, characteristics and traits of an ethnic group is identified by its cultural elements. Elements such as language, religion and customs are used to differentiate a group and another. Specified cultural elements are categorized to represent different types of ethnic groups. However this assumption is not suitable to apply in many situations. It is troublesome to identify ethnic group by cultural elements. This is because the people within an ethnic group does not necessarily possess the identical cultural elements. For instance, the Cham people in Vietnam belong to one ethnic entity, however in different areas this group of people possess different cultural elements. The Cham people in south central of Vietnam and in Mekong Delta have distinctive differences in religion, language and customs. In the south central Vietnam, the Cham practise localized Hinduism and Islam as religion. They speak south central dialect and their writing is originated from a script in Sanskrit. In term of custom, these Cham people are considered matrilineal and practice exogamy. On the contrary, the Cham in Mekong Delta majorly practise Islam. They speak in Mekong Delta dialect and...

Paadoxes of Universe

 

travel, I maintain, is possible. The paradoxes of time travel are oddities, not impossibilities. They prove only this much, which few would have doubted: that a possible world where time travel took place would be a most strange world, different in fundamental ways from the world we think is ours. I shall be concerned here with the sort of time travel that is recounted in science fiction. Not all science fiction writers are clear-headed, to be sure, and inconsistent time travel stories have often been written. But some writers have thought the problems through with great care, and their stories are perfectly consistent.1 If I can defend the consistency of some science fiction stories of time travel, then I suppose parallel defenses might be given of some controversial physical hypotheses, such as the hypothesis that time is circular or the hypothesis that there are particles that travel faster than light. But I shall not explore these parallels here. What is time travel? Inevitably, it involves a discrepancy between time and time. Any traveler departs and then arrives at his destination; the time elapsed from departure to arrival (positive, or perhaps zero) is the duration of the journey. But if he is a time traveler, the separation in time between departure and arrival does not equal the duration of his journey. He departs; he travels for an hour, let us say; then he arrives. The time he reaches is not the time one hour after his departure. It is later, if he has traveled toward the future; earlier, if he has traveled toward the past. If he has traveled far toward the past, it is earlier even than his departure. How can it be that the same two events, his departure and his arrival, are separated by two unequal amounts of time? It is tempting to reply that there must be two independent time dimensions; that for time travel to be possible, time must be not a line but a plane.2 Then a pair

People naturally resist making changes in their Lives. Docx uploaded successfully

People naturally resist making changes in their lives. What kind of problems can this cause? What solutions can you suggest?

There is a phrase meaning: "rivers have their smooth areas and their rough regions and life of people go up at this time and go at a different time". People therefore have to innovate, keep learning new things to overcome challenges. People, however, refuse to make changes in their lives. This leads them to be unable to adapt to new environments.

Growing up, studying, making friends and getting jobs ... are the important issues of everyone's life. Each query is inserted in the various situations that have different difficulties and require specific skills. For example, the environment between high school and University is not the same thing. In high school, teachers devote full attention to you, make sure that you deeply understand deep subjects, doing homework and learn the lessons of the heart. However, you must motivate you to study. It's not the teachers ' duty. If you do not make changes in methods and still wait for help from teachers, dramatically reduces your study and you certainly get poor results.

Making changes is difficult, but it does not mean that we cannot do it. in my opinion, there are some steps to help you get into a new habit. The first step is to change your mind. You should carefully consider the advantages and disadvantages between the new stuff and the old. For example, the send mail through the (I) nternet faster, cheaper and more convenient than making them by hand. Next, you should learn it a little everyday, ask the help of your family and your friends. Finally, you'll be an expert.

In conclusion, the world stands today is not the same point, but always changing every minute. If you do not update, study new techniques and skills continuously, you will soon be without contact with the world.

Man's life change always day-by-day. Therefore, it sets ...
