An excerpt from TheUniversals
Dr. Cleofe M. Bacungan
Â
Different cultures vary in their ethical manifestations. There are prohibitions about food, especially meat and styles of clothing. The status of women differs. Free enterprise and socialism have different economic values. There are the values of hiya and pakikisama, expressing the Filipino’s manner of communication and behavior. These are actual modes of conduct – subjective and situational. Their attitude depends on the accepted practices and ways of behavior of a given people at a given time. But beneath such diversity, there is a clear convergence on some basic values which can be truly called universals. No culture tolerates indiscriminate lying, stealing, or violence within the group. Incest is taboo by all cultures. Health, safety, productivity, efficiency, integrity, freedom, justice, beauty, love, family, solidarity, and respect for the dignity of man are always valid for all mankind.
