Cross cultural example in Holland Michigan The Holland Area Arts Council is honoring local African American artists during the month of February 2007, known as Black History Month. This event is one of many recognizing the diversity of Holland, Michigan, historically known as Tulip City founded by Dutch immigrants in the 19th century. This is a clear example of a community DOING what many only talk about.

Recently, I looked for an article in Wikipedia on cross-cultural psychology, and was amazed to find that Wikipedia does not have one. Can I propose that an article on this subject is added to Wikipedia? ACEOREVIVED 19:04, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
would people who watch this page please review the article, Early infanticidal childrearing, which makes many claims about anthropology and about non-Western societies? I was once involved in a flame-war with another editor, and it would be inappropriate for me to do a speedy delete or nominate the page for deletion. More important, I think others need to comment on it. I engaged in a detailed exchange recently with one other editor here, on the talk page; you may wish to review the discussion but it is getting involuted and I ask that you comment separately.

Cultural universal (also referred to as Human universals) is a stub article with not enough notability for its own page, and I thought I'd propose a merger in favor of deletion. I personally know very little about this subject but a detailed and concise history is found on the site linked below.
It seems there were a few studies done on this, initially with a linguistic perspective, then the topic broadened a bit after WWII (George Murdock) until interest was lost in the mid-sixties. Since then, a book was published in 1991 with a comprehensive (but largely ignored) list of universals and a German scholar is working on the subject currently.
Maybe this deserves a mention?:
This interest in the exploration of universals was dampened following Clifford Geertz’s relativist critique of universals as banal, vague tautologies, trivial, and as mere clichés in his 1965 essay, “The Impact of the Concept of Culture on the Concept of Man.” -Antweiler, C. Our Common Denominator: Human Universals Revisited.
