1. Rationale
In the context of globalization of the world, the area of cross-cultural
communication has become more and more popular. However, each culture has its
own features. We can not understand all cultures in the world.
Positioning in two opposite sides of the world, America and Vietnam are
different not only in geography but also in culture. Vietnam has a unique culture,
long history associated with the formation and development of the nation.
Vietnamese culture has been influenced by different cultures: first by the Chinese
culture during the one-thousand year Chinese Empire; then by French Colony of
one hundred years. Nevertheless, the typical values and characteristics of
Vietnamese culture have not faded away but have been preserved and enriched in
our societies of all periods.
United States is a multicultural nation, is home to many diverse ethnic
groups, traditions, and values. American is regarded as “a salad bowl” where the
various groups have remained somewhat distinct and different from one another,
making up a richly diverse American culture.
American culture and traditions have many differences with Vietnamese
culture and traditions. With the process of globalization, our country will have a
negative impact on all aspects of the world that the country faced. The situation
and the above trends will create both opportunities and challenges intertwined with
the development of the country in the coming years. With the desire of finding
