DestinyandPersonalResponsibilityOneimportantvariableaffectingcommunicationacrosscultu... Destiny and Personal Responsibility
One important variable affecting communication across cultures is destiny and personal responsibility. This refers to the degree to which we feel ourselves the masters of our lives, contrary to the degree to which we see ourselves as subject to things outside our control. Another way to look at this is to ask how much we see ourselves able to change and act, to choose the course of our lives and relationships. Some have drawn a parallel between the personal responsibility in North American settings and the view itself. The North American view is vast, with large spaces of unpopulated land. The frontier attitude of “King” of the wilderness, and the expansiveness of the land reaching huge distances, may relate to generally high levels of confidence in the ability to shape and choose our destinies.
In this expansive land, many children grow up with a heroic sense of life, where ideas are big, and hope springs forever. When they experience temporary failures, they encouraged to redouble their efforts, to “try, try again.” Action, efficiency, and achievement are valued and expected. Free will is respected in laws and enforced by courts.
Now consider places in the world with much smaller land, whose history reflects wars and tough struggles: Northern Ireland, Mexico, Israel, Palestine. In these places, destiny’s role is more important in human life. In Mexico, there is a history of hard life, fighting over land, and loss of homes. Mexicans are more likely to see struggles as part of their life and unavoidable. Their passive attitude is expr4essed in their way of responding to failure or accident by saying “ni modo”(“no way” or “tough lick”), meaning that the failure was destined.
This variable is important to understanding cultural conflict. If someone believing in free will crosses paths with someone more passive, miscommunication is likely. The first person may expect action and accountability. Failing to see it, he may conclude that the second is lazy, not cooperative, or dishonest. The second person will expect respect for the natural order of thins. Failing to see it, he may conclude that the first is forcible, rude, or big headed in his ideas of what can be accomplished or changed.

命运和个人责任
一个重要的变量是影响跨文化沟通的命运和个人的责任。这是指在何种程度上我们觉得自己是我们生活的主人,相反在何种程度上我们看待自己不受外界控制的事件。另一种方式来看待这是要求我们对自己多少能够改变和行动,来选择我们的生活和人际关系的过程。有的画在北美之间设置的个人责任和看法本身就是一个平行。美国的观点是巨大的,与无人居住的大片土地空间。的“王“的荒野,以及巨大的距离达到土地扩性,前沿的态度可能涉及到的能力,塑造和选择自己的命运的信心水平普遍较高。
在这广阔的土地,许多孩子长大后的生活,那里的想法是大英雄的感觉,希望永远弹簧。当他们暂时的失败经验,鼓励他们加倍努力,以“尝试,再试一次。“行动,效率和成就的价值和预期。自由意志是法律的尊重和由法院强制执行。
现在考虑用更小的土地,其历史可以反映战争和艰难的斗争在世界各地:北爱尔兰,墨西哥,以色列,巴勒斯坦。在这些地方,命运的角色,是人的生命更重要。在墨西哥,有一个艰苦的生活历史,对土地的战斗,家园的损失。墨西哥人更倾向于把它当作自己的生活和斗争中不可避免的一部分。他们的消极态度是expr4essed他们的方式作出反应,说“倪modo的“失败或意外事故(“没有办法“或“硬舔“),这意味着失败是注定。
这个变量是很重要的认识文化冲突。如果有人相信自由意志与他人交叉路径比较被动,缺乏沟通是可能的。可以预期的第一个人的行动和问责制。没有看到它,他可能会得出这样的结论,第二个是懒惰,而不是合作,是不诚实的。第二个人将期待的变薄自然秩序的尊重。没有看到它,他可以得出结论,第一是强迫,粗鲁,或大在什么可以改变他的想法完成或领导。
