What is cultural diversity? Diversity is nothing more than a difference from the majority. In any culture there is a majority and many minorities. Culture is a set of norms that set standards for a society of what is acceptable behavior.
In every culture there are basic standards for social interaction such as personal space distance, eye contact, amount of body language displayed in public, negotiating style, etc. In America, we stand about eighteen inches apart when engaged in normal conversation; prefer very direct eye contact; are pretty demonstrative with body language and negotiate very directly always asking the other party for their “bottom line”. In other cultures they may stand closer or farther than we are comfortable, may view direct eye contact as rude, be more or less open to displaying body language and negotiate more indirectly.
In America, many of us have a peculiar habit of assuming that those who differ from our norms are wrong. We tend to view the world from a rather myopic view leading to those outside this country calling us “Ugly Americans”.
Cultural diversity makes our country richer by making it a more interesting place in which to live. Just think how boring a meal would be without Chinese, Mexican, Japanese, Italian, German, French or Indian food!
Cultural diversity also makes our country stronger and better able to compete in the new global economy. People from diverse cultures bring language skills, new ways of thinking, creative solutions to difficult problems and negotiating skills.
The full text of the amendment<span> reads as follows: The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
They implemented this into the constitution in order to give more power to the states/people in creating and executing laws. Each state is needed to follow a certain set of rules and regulations. The state is not allowed to create laws that change or remove those sets of rules. However the state IS able to create laws outside of that, like school districts, housing, marriage, etc.</span>
A resource will always have value as long as people are willing to pay for it. This happens because the resource is sought after which means people see worth in this resources. One example of this are precious minerals which have no apparent reason why anyone would consider them expensive other than the fact that peopl are willing to pay for them.
