Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cultures that place a high value on ascription, or the status one is born into, view personal power as a threat to the social order. Individuals are expected to conform to their given role, and personal power is viewed as disruptive to the stability of society. In contrast, cultures that value individualism and achievement place a high value on personal power as a means to success and self-fulfillment. Isolationism is not directly related to views on personal power.
