CULTURAL VALUES : what are the most important cultural values in the Tunisian culture?
Throughout
this paragraph we would like to highlight four important values in Tunisia :
1- Charity :
Tunisian peoples are contibuting to help others such as the case of the Libyan
refugees who find in tunisia a "suitabal home" .
2- Honor and
respect : are also very significant for ewample if a person loses his honor and
dignity he is ruined in the eyes of his family and community . This cultural
value dictates why tunisian peoples have always raise the slogan of honor and
dignity as a principal right in the revolution .
3- Privacy:
Tunisian rarely talk about anything that is personal .it's considered to be
rude to ask too many personal questions although asking about somebody's family
is generally considered to be good manners
