Management and Organizations Global Environment
Questions: 1. How does the Australian culture compare to other world cultures (eg. Your home country or other countries that you have visited)? 2. Do you agree with the survey results for the Australian culture? Why or why not?. Answer: Introduction: 1. Australia and New Zealand have different backgrounds and thus automatically this is replicated in the individualities of the particular native populations. The Maori have combatant approach individuality but sense that their agreement with the British was never privileged by the other sides. On the opposite side to this situation, aborigines have more of victim acknowledgment. They experience that they were persecuted by Christian missionaries and that their nonviolent existence was traumatized by English defense force. Apart from that, it can be stated that New Zealand with its 8% mono-cultural aboriginal Maori inhabitants having considerably more political influences is far more ethnically cognizant than Australia with its multi-cultural Australian aboriginals who correspond to less than 1% of the entire inhabitants. However, it is required to mention here that the national anthem of New Zealand is sung in both Maori and English, while, Australias national anthem is harmonic in English only (Binder 2016). History says that Australia was established by the British as a punishing outpost and on the other hand, New Zealand was established by them as a spiritual outpost under Samuel Marsden. Therefore, whereas the Australians might have a stressed association with England, New Zealand is amalgamated in its admire for the homeland. Kelsey (2015) has stated that disagreement in New Zealand was built approximately the splitting up between Maori and immigrants. Whereas, it can be found that Australians conflicts were depended on a class struggle that was characterized by the Eureka religion and mythology. It can be seen that Australia has forever preserved a close collaborator standing with the USA. On the other hand, New Zealands principled stance in 1986 fir banning nuclear motorized warships from inflowing into the land of New Zealand (geert-hofstede.com 2016). Most importantly, it can be mentioned that Australians are far more imaginative in words use. Whereas, on the contrary, New Zealan ders do not use the rhyming jargon, colloquial and entertaining expressions or blasphemy to the same degree as Australians (Moran et al. 2014). 2. Several survey results have found out that Australia is a land of racists, as the surveys have found many anti-Muslim and anti-Semitic. The survey result says that half surveyed populations among the Australians harbor anti-Muslim emotions and a quarter is anti-Semitic. Apart from that, surveys reports have found out that one in three have admitted some stage of chauvinistic feelings against the aboriginal population (news.com.au 2016). However, it can be said that a 12 year examination, which was carried out by the foremost universities, found out that NSW and QLD to be the most chauvinistic nations, while Victoria was one of the major broadminded. The survey was conducted among 12,512 people in different parts of Australia and it was found out that 48.6% were off-putting towards Muslims, Asians (23.8%), indigenous Australians (27.9%) and Jews (23.3%) and black Africans (27%) (news.com.au 2016). However, it is required to mention here that as per the analysis, xenophobic hotspots in Australia leaned to be in those regions that had financial adversity, latest colonization and below-average educational heights (Yazdifar and Askarany 2012).
