摘要:In Amy Tan’s famous novel:The Joy Luck Club,ethnocentrism held by different groups including the mainstream so ciety and minorities is to blame for cultural conflicts.In this article,it gives the theoretical framework by discussing the definition,function and consequences of ethnocentrism.The second chapter probes into Amy Tan’story and gives examples of ethnocen trism held by family members within the minority group and by people around them.It concludes that the ethnocentrism is not limited to history or to some specific country or races.High level of ethnocentrism is dysfunctional,leading to misunderstanding and conflicts with out-group members.It is indicated that cultural relativism is the reasonable method people should adopt when they are involved in intercultural communication.
