Eoyang, Eugene – ADFL Bulletin, 1990
Reflects on the actual use of the English first-person plural pronoun "we," exploring cultural and social values of such usage and how the pronoun, as currently and frequently used, actually excludes populations and individuals assumed to be included and supports ethnocentric values. (CB)

Takooshian, Harold – Counseling Psychologist, 2003
Is it truly important to "internationalize" counseling psychology? If so, how can we best do this? This reaction to Leong and Ponterotto (2003) documents four general points about international psychology today--its origins, growth, ethnocentrism, and diversity--and relates these to their bold and comprehensive proposal to…

Klass, Morton – Education and Urban Society, 1990
Notes Allan Bloom's attack on anthropologists and the concept of cultural relativism. Rejects the idea that the study of other cultures leads to giving up one's own culture. Suggests that Bloom represents a nativistic revitalization movement which has found that anthropologists make excellent scapegoats. (EVL)

Papastephanou, Marianna – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2005
In this paper, I discuss globalisation as an empirical reality that is in a complex relation to its corresponding discourse and in a critical distance from the cosmopolitan ideal. I argue that failure to grasp the distinctions between globalisation, globalism, and cosmopolitanism derives from mistaken identifications of the Is with the Ought and…

While we often assume media are highly effective tools for learning, research shows an unpredictable relationship between text and audience response, with variable interpretation being the norm. This can be especially problematic in anthropology, whose central goal is to understand different cultures; some studies suggest that films may reinforce…

Katz, Bernard; Beech, Robert P. – Counseling and Values, 1978
A counseling center in an inner-city community serving an essentially minority population with a staff of middle-class professionals provided the opportunity to examine empirically whether the values of one group were indeed different from the values of the other. Results indicate qualitative and quantitative differences on the Rokeach Value…

Coleman, Michael C. – OAH Magazine of History, 1987
Discusses the rejection of popular racist beliefs of the nineteenth century by the Board of Foreign Missions of the Presbyterian Church in its missionary interactions with American Indians. Identifies the ethnocentrism at that time as distinct from racism and suggests reasons for the commonality of the former and the rejection of the latter. (AEM)
