Topic: US culture vs Indian culture (Read 1039 times)
If we talk about the culture, no two cultures are same. The Indian culture is unique and has its own values, but America culture is not unique, its mixture of different culture. This is one of the major cultural difference that Indians are very much family oriented, and the Americans are individual oriented.
Exactly work culture, ethics is also different. In America people tend to work only 8 hours a day, they prefer only work at working time. Basically they go office at 8 AM and come at 4.30 PM. But when we see this in India, people go office at 9 AM and they return at 10 PM, means people work more than 12 hours. It shows that people don't give their 100% at work place.
So time of working is totally different.
India belongs to Russia.
India and Russia are good friends. They do co-operate on various fields such as defence, nuclear energy and education. Russia recently built a few nuclear reactors in India. Also, there are a lot of joint ventures between the two countries in the defence sector.
what if he's talking about the other Indians?
Despite all these cultural differences, we need international relations(India–United States relations) for development. You all know on 05 June 2014, media reported that India Prime Minister Narendra Modi had responded to US President Barak Obama's invitation to travel to Washington with the intention of visiting Washington in September 2014 for bilateral talks with the US Government.
India belongs to Russia. There are a lot of differences between American and Indian culture and values.Few similarities are also here as mentioned by rigon. One thing you know in all area Americans is ahead but the spirit of competition is more in Indians people as compared to Americans. And competition is what brings out the best in people and achieves the best results.
He said that the Indians are more intelligent when compared to the Americans. I found that difficult to believe and therefore I asked him for the proof. He didn't mentioned anything about the spirit for competition.

But its not like that if you will do well research you will find that Indians are more intelligent and have capability to get good job as comparison to Americans.
Do you have any proof for all this? If Indians are that intelligent, why India remains as a third world country? Even China, has leaped light years ahead of India. Indians are good at only one thing. Increasing their population.
No doubt we all are true at our front.
Is there not any similarity in both the cultures?
Both US and Indian countries are in two different continents but still they have a few similarities. These are as below:Is there not any similarity in both the cultures?
1. Both countries are democracies.
2. In both these countries the religion has strong holds within the country population.
3. Both these countries have a big film industry with lots of film stars.

Martians are much better than both named in the title.
No doubt we all are true at our front.

Similarity is there.....both the countries consist of human beings!
If every one has this kind of world view,all the differences must disappear!
No doubt we all are true at our front.

For example, in Asian countries, when the children of a household gets married, they are welcome to live in their family home while western couples are expected to move out into their own place to start their own life and family.
If the couples move out to their family houses, then it is definitely the right thing to do. Adults should be self-sufficient, especially those who are married. What is the point in living with all the extended family members, as there will be frequent quarrels and lack of privacy?
you have to respect it and live under the same roof with your parents,brothers,uncles etc.......
Hmm that’s big theme to discuss , But yes we could say that , but you can not judge American family's by only that fact . American's are staying less with the family because country is giving them a change to start their life good job , and everything else ...
You would like to say that Americans stay less with the family because country is giving them to change to start their life. I am not agree with your statement. This statement shows that Indians is not getting opportunity to start their life good job and everything else. But its not like that if you will do well research you will find that Indians are more intelligent and have capability to get good job as comparison to Americans. For example, in Asian countries, when the children of a household gets married, they are welcome to live in their family home while western couples are expected to move out into their own place to start their own life and family.

American culture is oriented towards goal.. Americans are known to plan things ahead and they love controlling the nature and dominating the world around them.. Somehow, I think most of the Asian countries are more family orientated like China, Japan, Malaysia, Indonesia & India etc while western countries value personal independence more than connections to the family.
