Response to Connor’s Post

Upon reading your post I found one part in particular that you mentioned that was very interesting. When you stated that the differences in cultural interpretations could not be resolved in agreeable terms. This is an excellent point that I did not think about while doing the readings assigned for the lecture. The dedication that the elected officials have to their countries could be conceived as a result of the fact that the people that are in international positions are elected by the inhabitants of the country. The elected officials of today have much more in common with their people than the others that are in similar elected positions on the international scene. As long as the international representatives for the countries are elected by the people, the cultural interpretations will continue to be difficult to resolve in agreeable terms
