The Advantages of Multicultural Societies
Today, migrating to other countries has been a common thing. Many people live, study, and work in other countries to get better lives. However it is undeniable that migrating gets an effect of multicultural societies. The people must adapt to different culture in the country they live. They will accept the new culture from the new society they live in daily activities. The different cultures coexist in one country. People accept multicultural societies because multicultural society has some advantages.
First, people can know different culture of other countries. They learn other culture which they often see everyday. They learn it because they have to adapt to the culture where they live. By knowing the different culture people will experiences and rich of knowledge about culture that they may choose the most appropriate to be applied in daily life.
Second, Live in multicultural culture is very interesting. Such multicultural culture has divergent culture with different types of people. How monotonous this world if only in a society only exist one culture. Sometimes people will boring and do not get the variation in seeing the habit of people. If people have learnt the cultures each other, they will respect to them. Respecting another culture is important in multicultural societies in order to live in peace through diversity. Like in USA, Americans live peacefully with the people who have the different cultures. They really respected the individual freedom and plurality.
Third, people can bring the good culture from different cultures which they have learnt. They will take the advantage and absorb the thing that useful for their own culture. Of course it must not be contradicted to their own culture. It will enrich their culture.
One cultural society is not more desirable than multicultural ones. A lot of countries welcome the different cultures as the new culture in their countries. Accepting new culture will add our basic culture which we have. Since we still preserve our own culture and it is not contradicted to our culture.
