Answer:
Cognitive dissonance
Explanation:
The term Cognitive Dissonance was first introduced by Leon Festinger and it refers to what happens when a person has two or more contradictory beliefs or ideas and experiences psychological stress because of that. In other words, when two ideas are opposite to each other, the person will experience stress and will try to reduce this difference to reduce their discomfort. This usually happens when <u>new evidence contradicts the person previous belief and it creates stress</u> (cognitive dissonance).
Therefore, the state of conflict that someone experiences after taking an action, making a decision, or being exposed to information that is contrary to his or her beliefs is known as cognitive dissonance.
A cultural system creates a unique world that is experienced as "reality" by its members. The people of a certain culture come to accept the "realities" which form its culture.
However, when groups of different cultures come together, their "realities" become confronted. Creating a clash of cultures. The outcome of this clash is decided by the material power of each of this groups. The group with the most material will emerge victoriously and end up influencing the other group with its cultural system. Therefore, individuals from the influenced culture will end up learning a new "reality" by force. On the other hand, individuals of the influencing culture tend to see the others as "objects of study".
Clashes of cultures have been occurring throughout time, affecting the cultural authenticity of groups. Due to the constant blend of cultures, it is nowadays, very difficult to consider that a certain cultural group is "truly authentic".
