Four Sudan`S Cultural Values – An International Benchmarking Analysis

Abstract

The case study for this article is limited to four cultural dimensions of the Republic of Sudan (power distance, individualism vs collectivism, masculinity vs femininity and uncertainty avoidance). This limitation is a direct consequence of the political and the economic contexts in Sudan which are making impossible a scholar survey (ex. GLOBE research about national norms and values) in this country. In analyzing these dimensions, we will focus on a comparative presentation of the above-mentioned norms with the similar ones belonging to the countries of the ten International Clusters (Globe classification). For the Easter European Cluster, the author selected Romania, for the Nordic Cluster – Sweden, for the Germanic Cluster – Germany, for the Anglo-Saxon Cluster – United States, for the Latin European Cluster – Spain, for the South American Cluster – Mexico, for the Confucian Cluster – China, for the Middle East Cluster – Kuwait, for the South Asian Cluster - India and for the Sub-Sahara Cluster – Namibia.
