Cross cultural understanding: a handbook to understand others’ cultures

A.
 
Freedom 
Americans commonly regard their society as the freest 
and best in the world. Americans‘ understanding of freedom is 
shaped by the Founding Fathers‘ belief that all people are 
equal and that the role of the government is to protect each 
person‘s basic ―inalienable‖ rights. The U.S. Constitution‘s 
Bill of Rights assures individual rights, including provisions 
for freedom of speech, press and religion. No one single 
church dominates or controls in the US, there is a religious 
diversity.
