Course

Semester 5

This course explores numerous questions and analyses cultural similarities and differences with regards to Eastern [such as Indonesian] and Western [such as American and British] cultures. Recognizing that each society has its own beliefs, attitudes, customs, behaviours, and social structures, students are able to understand that people have a sense of identity, standards by which to live, and goals to strive for; that the term “culture” has many different meanings, referring to the patterns of belief and behaviour common to a particular group of people [such as the reasons why English people think and behave the ways they do].
