文化冲击的客观原因、过程与应对——以美剧《尼基塔》为例

Causes,Process of Culture Shock in Nikita and Its Countermeasures

文化差异是文化冲击产生的客观基础。从美剧《尼基塔》第一季中的艾历克丝的视角看,其面临的特工组织是一个具有森严等级、十足刚性、明确目的、群体倾向、语境依赖等文化特征的组织。这个组织给艾历克丝造成了文化冲击,电视剧展现了这个过程的迷惑期、危机期、恢复期、调整期的四个阶段。后来艾历克丝主要通过自我教育、获取信息、识别差异等手段进行调整适应。

Cultural differences are the origin of culture shock. As Alex has experienced,the Division she joins is an organization characterized by its rigidly stratified system,masculine culture,clearly defined objectives,collectivist orientation and high-context culture. Alex＇s culture shock could be divided into four stages of confusion,crisis,recovery and adaptation. Through self-education,information acquisition and difference identification,Alex overcomes the dizziness of the culture shock.
