1、浅析中美文化礼仪差异对商务交际的影响摘 要经济全球化的发展以及中国的入世，各国间商务交往及商务谈判的日益频繁，对不熟悉他国礼仪的谈判者产生了巨大的挑战。商务谈判过程中的利益忽略很可能会导致商务谈判的失败。因此，一桩成功的商务谈判必须从了解彼此的利益差异开始。美国作为当今世界经济强国，也是中国重要的贸易伙伴，但是中美两国的文化差异对谈判产生了巨大的影响，使谈判不能顺利进行。所以研究中美文化差异对中美两国谈判的影响是十分必要的。中美文化差异对国际商务谈判影响方面的研究主要是由北美学者进行的，特别是法国、荷兰、瑞典、阿根廷和俄罗斯。中国有着几千年的悠久历史，而美国只有短短几百的历史，在历史发展过程中

20、opulation increased 20%. As for the total population of the United States, about 77% of them live in urban areas, nearly half of them concentrated in the 37 large cities, to the large extent, which was put forward by the employment opportunities. As a result of new immigrants moving into the large c
21、ities, residents of large cities are going to move to the suburbs, and then the suburbs population grows faster than that of the urban area.The composition of the population has Significant changes: (1) the aging population. 1990 census shows that the United States has more and more elderly people,
22、the proportion of young people has a sharp decline. (2) The male population increased faster than the growth rate of the female. From 1980 to 1990, the United States male population increased by 10.55 million, women had an increase of 10.44 million, which was the first time in this century. (3) Ethn

The majority of them believed Christian, Roman Catholic took 24% of the total population, which was regarded as the second-largest religion, Judaism regarded as the third largest r

In addition, the United States had a variety of strange sects, such as sending the devil, Jesus and decadent, and Peoples Temple and so on.Chinese of all ethnic groups
27、is an integral part of the family of nations of the world, with the exception of Han ethnic nation, there were 55 groups are minorities. Our culture tour costumes of ethnic minorities mainly aimed at ethnic minorities of Chinas clothing culture, so it is necessary for the research of the general cha
28、racteristics of the Chinas ethnic minority costume culture.China is a united multi-ethnic country. As early as half a century ago, Comrade Mao Zedong pointed out in the article of the Chinese revolution and the Communist Party of China”: China is one of the worlds largest countries, its territory eq
29、ualed the whole area of Europe roughly. In the vast territory on its territory and the whole area of Europe roughly. In this vast territory, with vast land fertile, which gave the source of our food and clothing, with many mountains, which gave the broad masses of our forests; with many rivers and l
30、akes, which gave us the benefits of boats and water supply; with many long coastlines, which gives us the convenience of the transport from overseas of all ethnic groups. From very early ancient times, the ancestors of our nation labored, interested, reproduced in this vast land. After the foundatio
31、n of Peoples Republic of China, after careful scientific identification, there were 56 nationalities in China, they are: the Han, Mongolian, Hui, Tibetan, Uygur, Miao, Yi, Zhuang, Buyi, Korean, Manchu, Dong, Yao, Bai, Tujia, Hani, Kazak, Dai, Li, Lisu Lisu, Wa, She, mountains, Lahu, Shui, Dongxiang,
32、 Naxi, Jingpo, Kirgiz, soil, Daur ,Qiang, Brown, Sarah,brave man, Xibe, Achang, Pumi, Tajik, Nu, Ozbek, Russian, Ewenki,security, Yugur, Jing, Tatar, Dulong, Oroqen, Hezhen, bus doors. In addition, there are some outstanding people in the Community that had not been recognized. According to census s
33、tatistics of 1982 ,in the 55 ethnic minorities, the Zhuang minority had the largest population , about 13.38 million people,in addition,back, Uygur, Yi, Miao, Manchu, Tibetan, Mongolian, Tujia, Buyi, Korean, Dong, Yao, Bai, Hani and other ethnics population are over one million; Hezhe has the least
34、population, only 1476 people. Less than 7% of the total population of ethnic minorities in China accounts for a total area of about 50 - 60% of large areas, especially in the vast south-west, northwest and northeast border areas. They made rich and powerful offering to their homelands independence a
35、nd prosperity, but also created their own culture.The progress of the formation of the Chinese of all ethnic groups experienced at least two thousand years of differentiation or integration. From the names of the Summer, Xu, Di, “Yi, Zhu Pu, Baiyue and other names of other family perspective emerged
36、 in the ancient classics, China was a multi-ethnic country as early as in the Qin Dynasty, and the establishment of the feudal autocratic system of the Qin dynasty made multi-ethnic country under the central government of such a high degree of unity. Therefore, the culture of various nationalities i
37、n China has long-term development of the historical tradition, including clothing culture. From the prospective of the reality of the situation, the costumes culture of Chinas ethnic minority has the following five general characteristics:Firstly, China has a wide range of ethnic minorities, and has
38、 the vast distribution, and numbers of ethnic minority areas and has long been in the situation of difficult transportation, and under the situation of communication difficulties, so ethnic costumes are colorful, costumes culture is content-rich, and there are inexhaustible resources of clothing. Th
39、ere are 55 ethnic minorities in China, living in 70 percent of the county over 2000 counties in the country, with a broad distribution. In these ethnic minorities, some of the nation but also has many branches, such as the Miao Miao is divided into the five categories ,such as red, black Miao, White
40、 Miao, Young, sprout, of which , sprout includes the bulk of saplings and seedlings, Typhonium Miao, Mongolian yarn Miller flowers ,which were divided according to different costumes. As a result, not only different nationalities have different costumes, but also the same nation has different costum
41、es because of different branches, which made the costumes of Chinas ethnic minorities particularly rich. In the past, because the Han Chinese clothing of urban and rural residents that took the vast majority of our population are more confined to dark blue, part of ethnic minorities also advocates d
42、ark blue, so some people say we are the blue ants of the country. In fact, seen from the prospective of a very colorful minority costumes, the saying of blue ants of the country is not very realistic. Chinas ethnic minority costumes no matter seen from the terms of quality and color, or no matter se
43、en from the terms of style are very rich. Yunnan Province which has 24 ethnic minorities held the first National Arts Festival in September 1988 , thousands of people to the ranks of minority literature and thousands of people of ethnic minority costumes performing team amazed Chinese and foreign gu
44、ests. Kunming National Song and Dance Troupe chose the title of Sun, moon and Wind & Fire ,introduced a national sentiment evening dress club, including Spring Light, Summer on Rongrong, cool autumn wind, raging fire in winter, the four scenes displayed 300 sets of national costumes, the varieties,
45、singular styles, rich colors, the alarming patterns amazed everyone. A short span of half an hours show convincingly proves: Yunnan is not only the sea of songs and dances, but also the ocean of the ethnic minorities costumes. This is a microcosm of multi-ethnic of China. Secondly, as a result of di
46、fferent natural environments and different national customs and different aesthetic tastes, the Chinese ethnic minority costumes show the significant differences between the North and the South, mountains and grasslands, showing different styles and characteristics. Chinas natural conditions are dif
47、ferent between north and south: north is very cold and has more wind and snow, with vast forest steppe, the multi-ethnic minorities who live in the north lived on animal husbandry and hunting; south is humid and rainy, with mountainous basin Ling phase, during which more ethnic minorities engaged in
48、 farming. Different natural environments, productions and lifestyles resulted in a different national character and national psychology, but also resulted in a different dress styles and costume features. Mongolian, Tibetan, Kazakh, Kirgiz, Tajik, Yugur, soil and other ethnic minorities who Lived in high altitude grassland and engaged in animal husbandry took from the animals fur for their wearing, and skin sewing clothes, pants, cloaks are the light board, and some set color cloth or thin fur to the collar, cuffs, hand-made clothes, lap. Kirgiz ethnic Tibetans are muc
