Racism in education

The rise of the action of student brawls, a total of 339 cases during 2011 which resulted in deaths of up to 82 people, because of various prevention efforts have not been based on the completion of the root of the problem. It takes a thorough and ongoing efforts to resolve the fight.

Cases concern the National Commission for Child Protection (Komnas PA) gives an alarming picture. The case was not only jumped 260 percent over the same period in 2010, but also the quality and casualties who died from the fighting rose to 100 percent.

In my opinion, children affected by family and school environment. High and low frequency of fighting between adolescents depends on the quality of family and school.

"If parents disciplining their children emotional and upset the correct way to train, then the emotional expression of children will be more focused. Perhaps there are parents who teach their children, if struck by a friend at school, it did not retaliate when hit right. Supposedly, parents and teachers report to respect the laws of the school.

Global Youth Culture

Global youth culture is the transdisciplinary category by which theorists and policy analysts attempt to understand the emergence of the complex form of hybrid culture and identity  that increasingly occur amongst youth throughout the word due to the proliferation of media like film, television, popular music, the internet and other information and communication technologies (ICTs) in their every day lives.

For example, the effect of music for young peoples. For me, music is something that many multi-function effects on our lives. Sometimes the music inspires us in acting, music to picture ourselves according to the lyrics in the songs, and good to hear music with all the things that we like are contained therein. Song with the lyrics and the music sometimes affect the way we perceive. As social beings we ourselves would be constantly changing in accordance with our growth and development with age. Development and growth is largely influenced by the environment, and there is also the influence of music.

An now, especially in Indonesian country the people like korea music,style and korea film. The behaviour that we see or hear in every time is influenced in youth culture lives.

the habits of youth people to imitate the western culture

Habits of Westerners who have been entrenched can we see it almost every day through the electronic and print media which unfortunately the culture of Western people that are negative in nature and tend to undermine and violate the norms of the western, so watched and emulated by people we are mainly young people who want freedom like the West now. Western culture is culture-can we start from the clothing and fashion, music, film to the interaction with the opposite sex. 
Such as clothing and fashion model clothing 'U can See' adopted by Westerners imitated by the families of our youth, especially by women who take pride in their clothes so as not to cover her nakedness. In magazine issue recently read about the author of "Slipknot" concert in New York are decorated with screens painted blood red pentagram with a goat's head, known as the symbol of "Satanists". During the concert they often say swear words are dirty. If Western culture is replicated here, then we will assume teenagers will experience anomie in him as the next generation.

What is ethnocentrism?

Ethnocentrism is the tendency to see the world only through their own cultural perspective. Based on this definition is not always negative sebagimana ethnocentrism is generally understood. Ethnocentrism in certain cases also a positive thing. Unlike the general assumption that ethnocentrism is something that is merely bad, ethnocentrism is also something that is functional because it encourages the group in the struggle to find the power and wealth. At the time of conflict, ethnocentrism is really useful. With the existence of ethnocentrism, the groups involved in conflict with other groups will mutually support one another. One example of this phenomenon is when the expulsion of ethnic Madurese in Kalimantan, many Madurese elsewhere condemned the evictions and to help the refugees.

Ethnocentrism has two types of opposing each other. The first type is a flexible ethnocentrism. A person who has this ethnocentrism can learn ways of ethnocentrism and perceptions put them appropriately and react to a reality based on their cultural worldview and interpret the behavior of others based on their cultural background. The second type of ethnocentrism infleksibel. Ethnocentrism is characterized by an inability to get out of perspective can only be owned or understand something that is owned by the perspective and not able to understand the behavior of others based on their cultural background.

Different between Indonesian people with Australian people

Helo friands................
Kali ini my posting adalah tentang pengalaman saya kemarin, yaitu pada perkuiahan Cross – Cultual Understanding. Semua mahasiswa berjumpa dengan native speaker, dan kebetulan dia eoang wanita yang berasa dari Negara Australia. Dia biasa di panggil dengan nama panggilan yaitu Kirrilly, dia di Indonesia epatnya di Salata dan Kuliah di UKSW (Universitas Kristen Satya Wacana) untuk belajar Bahasa Indonesia. 

Kita berbincang – bincang sekitar kurng lebih 2 jam, kita share tentang kebudayaan yaitu antara kebudayaan Indonesia dan kebudayaan Negara Australia. Saya mengambil kesimpuan bahwa di Australia tidak seperti di Negara Indonesia yang mempunyai banyak beragan aneka kebudayaan daerah. Seperti: tarian daerah, masakan daerah, lagu daerah, pakaian adat/daerah, dll. Bisa di bilang negara Australia tidak mempunyai kebudayaan yang khas.

Kemudian satu ha lagi yang berbeda dengan oang Indonesia. Banyak warga negara Indonesia yang bakat akting, dari yang menjadi Tarzan sampai cting yang harus menghabiskan air mata pun di lakukan oleh para aktor dan aktris Indonesia, apalagi kalau acting tentang kisah asmara khuusnya para remaja, pasti hampir semua stasiun televisi tayang tiap hari. Tetapi di Negara Australia warga di sana jarang atau tidak bisa akting.
Walau di australia tidak terkenal dengan duni akting, tetapi di tiap – iap negara pasti mempunyai ciri khas masing – masing. Seperti di negara Austraia, negara ini terkenal dengan negara Kanguru. Karena di negara ini banyak hewan kanguru yang hidup di sana. Bahkan hewan – hewan samai hidup berkeliaran di jalanan. Mungkin saking banyaknya kali yaaaa..........!!!!!!!!! Kemudian hewan lainnya seperti wambat dan cocobar ( seperti burung).

****Cukup sekian...........semoga dapat beranfaat buat kalian*****
