Different culture adaptation
Jiroušková, Oxana ; Morgensternová, Monika (referee) ; Štětovská, Iva (advisor)
Processes of globalisation, advances in communication and transportation technologies, economical and political instability, and of course famine and wars, they all cause increasing migration flows in the world. That is why an adaptation of migrating people for a new cultural environment becomes one of the most important topics for research in cross-cultural psychology. Major part of the Czech researches has a reference to adaptation of Czechs in foreign countries, not to an adaptation of foreigners in our country. This is the reason why we focused on this topic in our research. Our topic is inter-cultural adaptation and psychological problems connected with the adaptation of immigrants in the Czech Republic. We made 22 interviews with immigrants from different parts of the world, all inteviews were then qualitatively analysed. The results of my research proved that foreigner's adaptation process for Czech culture is individua! and depends on many factors like intern~l (personality) and external ones (attitude and behaviour of Czech majority). Czech society to be closed. Foreigners often feel refused of majority. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
