Europe versus Asia: Truth versus Virtue

Geert Hofstede

European Review, 1996, vol. 4, issue 3, 215-219

Abstract: Two major contrasts between Western and Eastern thought are discussed. Eastern people put a value on long-term thinking. They do not regard the search for certainty as important but accept multiple interpretations as simultaneously valid.
