Cultural relativism is the principle that an individual's beliefs and activities should be understood by others in terms of that individual's own culture, promoting the idea that no culture is superior to another. This perspective encourages the examination of cultural practices without ethnocentric bias, fostering a deeper appreciation and understanding of cultural diversity.
Moral absolutism is the ethical belief that certain actions are intrinsically right or wrong, regardless of context or consequences. It contrasts with moral relativism, which suggests that morality is context-dependent and subjective.
