中西方文化差异ChinesevsWesternCulture制作人：姚露燕 主要的区别中国和西方文化之间的主要区别是，中国是一个东方国家,和它的文化遗产与西方的完全不同。中国的文化已经有5000年的历史，中国有自己发展的音乐文化，他们的乐器，他们的绘画技巧，和他们的医药历史，而不是抛弃他们，烹饪方法等,相比完全不同的和独特的西方文化。中国文化注意饮食健康，而且有一个完善的方法来保持健康。而西方文化更先进，喜欢冒险和探索。中国人更注重集体利益而不是个人获得正确的决策，和相信采取中间路线,以避免极端主义。 西方文化:1.西方文化是建立在个人主义而不是质量(集体主义)。例如，在美国，总是谈论个人权利,而不是把整个社会放在个人权利上面。这显然和中国文化不一样，把社会和家庭放在个人利益前面。 Chinese:1.Aculturebasedonmasses(collectivism).Peopleplacedcountryandfamilyaboveyourownself.
