Culture, does it influence people's notion of Heroism?
I am one of the fortunate few who had the opportunity of living two very different cultures, my native semi-conservative Lebanese, Arabic culture, and my new western, liberal united states culture.
I Could compare and contrast all types of differences including peoples dreams, life expectations, ways to attain life's goals, ways to react to different situations, but one of the most wonderful differences is peoples notions of Heroism. How the difference in our cultural, educational and religious background will affect our ideas about whom to chose as our elite. Why do people in my culture mainly idealize war heroes and religious leaders? Why do teenagers and young adults in the western society
have rock and movie stars as their ultimate dream characters?
