There are as many ways to be human as there are cultures. Moving from one culture to another can be profoundly disorienting, because the rules are changed at a level that affects our humanness, our identity, at its most basic. The papers collected here address this transition of identity. They look at the experience of traveling to cultures quite different from our own, at the Culture Shock that comes from returning home after long periods away, and perhaps the most disorienting event of all, the experience of cultural dislocation at home. All of these events tell us about the process of being human, by looking at how human beings change as they move from one culture to another. CULTURE SHOCK will be of use to graduate students going into the field; travelers interested in understanding other cultures; university faculty looking for controversial topics for classroom discussion; business people who must work overseas; those interested in social identity and how it changes. Clitoridectomy, ethnicity, racism, culturally determined cognitive strategies, attitudes toward leprosy and even social interactions in a pub come under analysis in this fascinating collection of articles.
