Xenophobia

Xenophobia pictures Xenophobia is expressed in fear of foreigners, as well as fear and hatred of everything else, unfamiliar, unfamiliar, incomprehensible, perceived as dangerous and therefore hostile. In the event that xenophobia is elevated to the rank of worldview, then it is the cause of national enmity for the religious or social division of people.

Xenophobes often find a lot of excuses in their address and thus give an explanation that they are sick with this disease. People who are afraid and dislike of foreigners, imply an irrational fear and even sometimes a real hatred of people.

The manifestation of xenophobia

Xenophobes lack tolerance for foreigners and people speaking an unfamiliar language. Sometimes xenophobia is not always clearly defined, unequivocally it is not welcomed by the authorities and often the surrounding people are negative about this phobia. Xenophobe does not accept new people, but refers to new events as an obvious danger or hostility. Often this is their personal worldview. The theme of xenophobia is multifaceted and is the subject of disputes among psychologists who believe that each person finds his own understandable facet of this phenomenon for himself.

Xenophobia - examples of

Special organizations in America distribute memos that contain information about the negative attitude towards those people who experience and proclaim hatred towards people of other nations, different religions, different nationalities and sexual orientations.

It is believed that xenophobia can develop under conditions where people do not want to take measures to eliminate it. The hatred of xenophobia is undisguised aggression against people, as well as the apparent non-acceptance of good-order rules.

Certain groups of people hide behind xenophobia and thus explain their hatred, causing constant turmoil in society. Xenophobes can not hide their emotions when other people of foreign nationality appear and are demonstratively trying to leave this place. At the same time, they spoil the mood, dizzy, nervousness, aggressiveness, increased sweating and weakness.

The causes of xenophobia

The origin of xenophobia as the most fear of people is difficult to explain. The factors and mechanisms that generate xenophobia are politically biased and the social nature of their origin. But it may also be that the origin of the fear of people hides in childhood memories that have been preserved for life, and they influenced the further worldview. It should be borne in mind that involuntary imitation of the parents also affects the attitude towards other people. If the parent showed a negative attitude towards people of a different nationality or to strangers, then it is indisputable that this behavior will be copied by the child and will repeat the model in the future. An important provoking factor in the development of xenophobia in adolescence is films, the yellow press, peer stories. The receptive mind of a child works in such a way that it passes all information through itself and takes it as a standard.

Teenage xenophobia has stereotypes based on religious, racial and ethnic differences. These stereotypes are an excuse, as well as a basis for crimes and hatred among young people. Psychologists recommend learning to control their emotions to adolescents as early as possible. As a patient with xenophobia, ceasing to control his behavior is capable of inappropriate actions.

Biosociology believes that xenophobia is an adaptation tool in evolution that promotes survival, as well as the transfer of genes to offspring. For example, fear of strangers can be based on the possibility of infection by pathogens.

Combating xenophobia

Many people are interested in the issue of how to treat xenophobia. This is possible, but the patient's personal desire to get rid of social phobia is necessary, as obsessive irrational fears, as well as hatred towards people, greatly spoil life and lead to frequent conflict situations with others. If you do not get rid of xenophobia, you do not know where it can lead a person. Fears, hatred, aggression and extremism will grow. And in time turning to a therapist, you can avoid the above problems.

The fight against xenophobia includes special treatment: training, hypnotherapy, psychotherapeutic methods.

Xenophobia and Extremism

Extremism means adherence to any extreme views and, in particular, measures. The basis of modern extremism and xenophobia lies in the development of communications, but with all this there is a lack of human unity. Previously, such contact of different cultures was difficult. At present, it is intense, fast and close. The possibilities of modern air transportation allow a person to overcome a considerable distance in a short time and find themselves in another country and environment, for example, with the purpose of earning. Living in another country a person keeps in touch with his native culture, and xenophobes perceive the presence of foreigners negatively, while commenting thus: came in large numbers, that there was no life from them.

Living in a different cultural environment, foreigners feel at home, actively participating in the life of society, while their cultural standards are not denied. This situation applies to civilized Europeans who act as hosts, and strangers are Arabs, Turks, and Chinese.

There is a reverse problem with which it all began. Europeans have penetrated all corners of the globe, living at the same time in European way, making a great impact in the life of other cultures. Xenophobia and extremism are based not only on the conflict of civilizations, but also on the decline of civilization. Expanding, xenophobia is a sign of a weakening of the national spirit.

A healthy and confident people living in their native homeland do not experience xenophobia and it only arises after the threat to the existence of this people.

Xenophobia in Russia

Extremism and xenophobia are primarily based on spiritual grounds, as the spiritual crisis of the whole of European civilization provokes these manifestations. I especially wanted to note that xenophobia in Russia is ahead of the whole planet.

Spiritual crisis in Russia is opposed to spiritual revival. For example, some Muslims have a dislike for Russians, explaining this by the fact that they can not understand their behavior: disbelief in God, profanity, trampling in the dirt of motherhood, moral life of a person. A person with certain traditions respectfully accepts the fact that someone else of faith has other family customs, and on the contrary, the lack of faith itself, as well as the foundations, causes hatred and contempt.

It is the revival of the foundations of the traditions of Russian life that will give a chance to defeat xenophobia and extremist manifestations. First of all, we are talking about the revival of the moral and religious culture of the Russian people. The eternal foundations of life are becoming topical: mutual respect, faith, historical memory and conscience.
