m some main characteristics at different levels of cultural
heterogeneity;
- but person who belongs to one cultural entity can depend to
other cultural entity as well. For example, a person who
lives in Baku can define himself as Azerbaijani, Caucasian,
Muslim (Christian), Azerbaijani turk (Russian), Asian or
Eastern.
m also can include some different nations (e. g. Western,
Arab, ]urkish civilizations)
!
m ifferences based on history, language, region, religion, tradition, culture as
they are more fundamental and stable than other differences between people;
m World becomes ³smaller´, interactions and awareness of differences between
cultures increases;
m Separation from local identities because of economic and social changes;
m West is at the peak of its power; non-West wants to shape the world in non-
Western ways rather than Western ways (dual role of West);
m Cultural characteristics are the least compromised by the people;
m Economics regionalism increases day by day (e. g. North American Free ]rade
Area, Association of South East Asian Nations, Economic Cooperation
Organization).
