Ethnocentrism is the act of believing your own culture is not only better but more right than others. My guess would be that counter ethnocentrism is counteracting this. Like culture relativism, which is trying to accept other cultures for being just what they are and not judging them.
Ethnocentrism a noun.
Ethnocentrism can be both good and bad.
"How strongly do you agree with the statement: 'My culture is superior to others'?"
Cultural ethnocentrism.
Cultural relativism was in part a response to western ethnocentrism
A banana. It has absolutely nothing to do with ethnocentrism and so is a perfect non-example.
The main difference between ethnocentrism and xenocentrism is the preference of culture. Ethnocentrism is a preference to your own culture standards while xenocentrism is a preference to different cultures.
ethnocentrism
Ethnocentrism is the tendency to judge other cultures by the standards of one's own culture. Examples: A Westerner thinking that using chopsticks at every meal to eat is strange, silly, or a "stupid" way to eat An American making jokes about the Korean practice of eating dogs.
The opposite of ethnocentrism is cultural relativism, which is the belief that all cultures have value and should be understood and judged based on their own standards and beliefs rather than comparing them to one's own culture.
True
Every culture in the world developed ethnocentrism. It's just human nature to see your own culture as normal and other cultures as abnormal. European ethnocentrism is just more well known because Europe was so powerful.
