内容説明

A truly global, multicultural, and cross-cultural reader, One World, Many Cultures features 60 selections by major authors from 31 countries. The readings explore cultural differences in relation to race, class, gender, region, and nation, challenging students to compare their experiences with the experiences of others in radically different cultural circumstances. Eight thematic chapters explore cultural perspectives on human experiences around the globe: family life, adolescent relationships, gender roles, work, conflicts of class and race, the struggles of individuals against governments, the immigrant experience, and a new chapter on social customs, rituals, and sports.
