Cíle předmětu
Students will be provided knowledge and skills related to social, political and economic institutions in various cultures. Special attention will be devoted to the development of students´ critical awareness concerning the ability to evaluate on the bases of explicit criteria accepted in their own culture and in other cultures. This approach will be based on the analytic attitude to culture phenomena, their context, the awareness of the own ideological perspectives and values, like e.g. human rights, religion, etc., as well as of the potential conflicts between cultures. Students will be led towards empathy, i.e. accepting different systems of culture values and negotiating in international business interact.
