Is there more homogeneity in their values instead of saying culture?

• bilbo0s 2y ago
  But the word "culture" is what was used. Not the word "values". There can be a discussion about whether or not "values" would be a better term. I think that's fair. But switching to a discussion based on values moves the goal posts a bit and we should acknowledge that fact.

    I consider them both to be fairly interchangeable in this context, it's obvious that crime isn't linked to whether someone prefers croissants or bratwurst.

      So by "homogeneous" you don't really mean homogeneous, you mean upstanding people who don't commit a lot of crime or problems? Eastern Europe is much more homogeneous than western Europe, there is also more crime and problems there, so I don't see a strong link between the two at all.

        I think it's both. If you have two communities that believe they are acting in an upstanding manner, but both have different values, then neither trusts the other. I do also think though that some cultures, religions etc have "better" moral standards.
