Development of attitude self-analysis capacity from the perspective of preventing socio-cultural non-integration

Abstract

This article contains general ideas about the issue of developing the capacity for attitudinal self-analysis from the perspective of preventing sociocultural non-integration. To be socioculturally integrated, refugees must adheere to certain values, opinions and attitudes of the reference group. The increased effort to which refugees are subjected to seek adaptation in the current conditions of strong socioeconomic ascent and informational explosion amplifies the emergence of sociocultural integration difficulties. In our view, sociocultural non-integration is due to either attitudinal self-analysis deficiencies, or to social conditions that favor the appearance of certain disintegrative behaviors, destructive and dysfunctional for the stability of the social system. In this article, we highlight our aspiration for the development of the consciously and purposefully chosen non-conflictual attitude of perspective preventing sociocultural non-integration. We believe that developing the capacity for attitudinal self-analysis requires a good knowledge of personality, involving the acceptance of one’s identity and the acquisition of discernment to distinguish between permitted and prohibited conduct, between constructive and destructive conflicts, between legitimate means and illegitimate, between desirable and undesirable goals from a sociocultural point of view.
