摘要

非洲是一个文化相当多样化的大陆。这种多样性并不一定与殖民时期在非洲建立的国家边界平行。然而,非洲几十年的国家建设一定留下了印记。现在在非洲是否有可能区分民族文化,还是传统的民族语言差异更重要?本文采用跨文化心理学的方法来研究这些问题。2012年,Minkov和Hofstede在该杂志上发表了一篇文章,分析了撒哈拉以南非洲七个国家在次国家行政区域层面的世界价值观调查数据。他们认为,民族文化在这个地区也是一个有意义的概念。这项研究重新审视了这个问题。它采用了一种创新的方法,着眼于民族语言群体,而不是行政区域,并使用了更广泛的非洲晴雨表调查数据集。报告发现,尽管Minkov/Hofstede的研究仍有其价值,但在几个重要方面,情况更加微妙。没有一种模式能充分描述整个非洲的情况

National Culture and Africa Revisited: Ethnolinguistic Group Data From 35 African Countries
Africa is a continent of considerable cultural diversity. This diversity does not necessarily run in parallel to the national boundaries that were created in Africa in the colonial period. However, decades of nation building in Africa must have made their mark. Is it possible nowadays to distinguish national cultures in Africa, or are the traditional ethnolinguistic distinctions more important? This article uses an approach developed in cross-cultural psychology to examine these questions. In 2012, Minkov and Hofstede published an article in this journal analyzing World Values Survey data from seven countries in Sub-Saharan Africa at the level of subnational administrative regions. They argued that national culture is also a meaningful concept in this region. This study reexamines the matter. It uses an innovative approach, looking at ethnolinguistic groups instead of at administrative regions and using the much more extensive Afrobarometer survey data set. It finds that although the Minkov/Hofstede study still has merit, the picture is more nuanced in several important ways. There is not one pattern that adequately describes the situation in the whole of Africa.1

期刊介绍: Cross-Cultural Research, formerly Behavior Science Research, is sponsored by the Human Relations Area Files, Inc. (HRAF) and is the official journal of the Society for Cross-Cultural Research. The mission of the journal is to publish peer-reviewed articles describing cross-cultural or comparative studies in all the social/behavioral sciences and other sciences dealing with humans, including anthropology, sociology, psychology, political science, economics, human ecology, and evolutionary biology. Worldwide cross-cultural studies are particularly welcomed, but all kinds of systematic comparisons are acceptable so long as they deal explicity with cross-cultural issues pertaining to the constraints and variables of human behavior.
