This chapter talks about culture and media, starting with the definition and elements of culture. The ideas of cultural diversity and cultural change are also introduced in this chapter. Dragged along with globalization, we are facing more culture conflicts than before. It seems necessary to understand and respect the culture differences among different countries.
This article written by Sunniva Heggertveit-Aoudia, gives a brief list of the countries that have laws around disadvantaged groups of the population. Singapore is a good example of a nation who embraces its diversity successfully (2011).
The "Culture Diversity" (2009) defines what culture diversity is, talks about types of differences it covers and tips for communicating with culture awareness.
