Multicultural society
Acculturation
- It’s an ongoing process throughout your life
- It’s a two-way process » how the environment is receiving you and how you adapt to the environment
- It’s a process of social, psychosocial and cultural change from the encounter between two (or more) cultures. People adopt, acquire and adjust to a new cultural environment as a result of moving into a new culture.
- Het is een proces dat blijft voortbestaan
Acculturation model at individual level
four different acculturation strategies
- Integration: people maintain aspects of the heritage culture, while also adopting aspects of the host society/host society culture.
- Assimilation: fully adopting the host society and losing maintenance of heritage culture.
- Segregation: maintaining the heritage culture without having a lot of interaction with the host society » focus on own culture.
- Marginalization: people lose touch with heritage culture but also don’t have (much) contact with the host society
Acculturation model at societal level
- Multiculturality: A society witch people are integrated. Meaning that people are allowed to maintain aspects of their heritage culture, while also being actively part of the host society.
- Melting pot: Type of society where people lose (parts of)their heritage culture, or are not in touch with their heritage culture, but mainly adopt the common culture in a country (= assimilation)
- Segregation: reflects a society with very different groups, different communities, but with very little interaction. Some groups maintain their heritage culture
- Exclusion: groups that are not part of anything. Individuals or small groups that aren’t part of their own cultural community or they are not able to establish their own cultural community. They’re also not part of the host culture/society.
