Abstract:
Education of communion, patriotism, self-awareness and choices is closely related to the studies of nationalism, as the perception of identity and traditions of identification, development opportunities and future priorities, cross-cultural communication, based on dissemination of tolerance and respect, and cultural studies, that form the criteria of creativity, imagination and the joy of discovery. Cultural horizons, mediated by evidencies as a prerogative of evidentiality, which do not need proof of the vast, singularity and originality, promote the search of strong and meaningful support, f

Abstract:
Volunteer tourism has become a popular phenomenon worldwide and questions have been raised about the work that international volunteers do in Third World countries. Scholars have debated the possibility of a cross-cultural ‘misunderstanding’ developing between international volunteers and local community members. This research is based on the idea that there can be a possibility for cross-cultural understanding to take place. This thesis aims to gain better insight into the role that volunteer tourism organisations (VTOs) play in fostering cross-cultural understanding between the volunteers an

This has sparked unparalleled marketing opportunities for automotive manufacturers and the continent is fast attracting major players in this sector.

Culture is made up of numerous components that interact upon the individual to help form and shape his/her perspectives about the world. Two such components are machismo (the degree to which a population views gender roles as particularly male oriented) and self-construal (the internal attributions of individualism/collectivism). In a survey conducted among native English speaking individuals and native Spanish speaking individuals within the Midwestern United States, a measure of both of these components was used to determine whether there are differences in scores for selfconstrual and machi

This difference in construing the self in turn affects the above mentioned judgmental processes. However, when relying on cross-cultural studies alone, the

Abstract:
Unlike previous empirical studies that focus on barriers to entry in international trade, we focus on barriers to exit as measured by passport costs for a cross-section of countries. We test four common theories on the determinants of such exit barriers and find that macroeconomic and brain-drain explanations do explain high barriers to exit. However, institutional and cultural hypotheses do not appear to be empirically robust explanations of such high barriers. Our findings hold when applying instrumental variables, changes in specification, and changes in cross-country periods.
