Exploration and Implication of Value Orientation Patterns in Social Policy-Practice with Ethnic Communities in Bangladesh

摘要

Purpose Value orientation patterns (VOPs) are the fundamental existential and relational problems among traditional ethnic communities in Bangladesh. Using Kluckhohn and Strodtbeck’s analytical framework (e.g., man-nature, human nature, time, activity, and relation), we explore, compare, and imply VOPs and its interrelationships in social policy-practice among Muslim, Hindu, Santal, and Oraon ethnic groups in Bangladesh.
