Standards of Intellectual and Cultural Integration
Originally by: Mona Hasan: Sudan.
The Arabic Magazine - Sep. 2017.
Men of wisdom once said (Disciplining Before Education), for disciplining is the main substance of the individual's morals, and the strongest influencer upon the formation of his personality and its capability of being affected. This emerges when we talk about the Arab generations in the West, whose parents abandoned their homelands immigrating to countries which mostly differ culturally and religiously from their homes, for several uncountable reasons. And although the percentage of assimilation of the different side in the West is much higher than in our Arabic countries, yet these immigrations have formed small communities within western societies that are almost detached intellectually and socially, but it doesn't deny the fact that others have integrated completely or partially within the western societies' intellect and culture. At last, the human being undoubtedly must get affected by the surrounding environment and its culture, and the intensity of the affect depends on the individual's disciplining, his culture and intellectual inheritance, plus the viewpoints of the Arab generations in the West regarding homeland differ, for many view homeland as the originality, birthplace and family, others view homeland whereby decent life is achieved and humanity is respected.
