Cultural relativism is incorrect as a philosophy
My view is that cultural relativism is incorrect as a philosophy. For instance, if one believes everything is relative how can it be that cultural relativism is the correct view? Is this not itself exculsive and therefore not relative? And, if say, Mr or Mrs Ahmed from Pakistan or Somalia, wishes to leave their country of origin to come to live and work in England, is this choice not showing a preference for a different culture and country? And, if they vote with their feet to come to live in another country and culture why would they wish to subscribe to cultural relativism? Surely, their decision to leave suggests that they accept a different culture and show a preference for English culture. <Read Post>
