Individualism Sample Clauses

Individualism. Individualism is the idea that the individual’s life belongs to him and that he has an inalienable right to live it as he sees fit, to act on his own judgment, to keep and use the product of his effort, and to pursue the values of his choosing. It’s the idea that the individual is sovereign, an end in himself, and the fundamental unit of moral concern (Xxxxxxx, 1991). According to our informants, this is the ideal that the Norwegian society is based on, in which the individual’s rights to life, religion, liberty, property, and the pursuit of happiness are recognized and protected. Norway is a high modern society where people are individualistic, independent, and autonomous while Somalia is a traditional society where people always live together with their family members and in clans. Most of the respondents we interviewed from Somalia said that they were shocked when they just came to Norway when they saw some individuals staying alone in their apartments. According to our respondents, in Norway a youth above the age of 18 has the freedom to choose his/her partner without the interference of the parents while in Somalia they practice arranged marriages. The official age of getting married in Somalia is 15 years and above but sometimes young girls below the age of 15 are forced into marriage. In Somalia the bride price is paid to the girl’s parents or guardians by the groom’s parents or guardians before getting married while in Norway nothing is paid to the pride’s parents. In short marriage is free in Norway.
