In psychology there are several authors that talk about culture shock, for example Kohls, he talking that is a "the most pronounced reactions of psychological disorientation" that In general this it present when a person change or meet to a very different culture.
The cultures shock o in Chile is something that in the last time is taking more force because to Chile now is more attractive to immigrant, before did not have much culture diversity. for example, many Colombian people come north of Chile, in general of black skin this situation generate problems with some chilean person a day in the in the news the Chilean women argued against Colombian women, said that they took away their husbands and were traffickers this is an example cultural shock that is occurring in Chile, many times prejudice.
I never experienced a cultural shock in general I relate to people very similar to me and when I met people from other cultures gives me a lot of curiosity and never experienced a psycholorical disorientation I like cultural diversity.
The situation in the north of country, is very difficult, represent a great cultural shock.
ReplyDeleteI don´t know so much about the colombian people, but i think that as we learn more about un "other", more we approach a more comprehensive and complete society.
ReplyDeleteWe need to know more about the all people. Maybe the chilean people don´t travel for a very long time. And the understanding it´s necessary.
