Ethnocentrism

    Ethnocentrism means to keep a strong belief in the superiority of one’s own group or society. It is the logical theory of Ibn-e-Khaldoon’s philosophy who is known as the father of Sociology. However, effortlessly, it means to love, respect, and support each other.

   According to him without ethnocentrism, no state can be developed or run successfully. Because it helps to create a peaceful society. Initially, love and cooperation are necessary to prove themselves a strong state. By the account of the interaction, major issues get solved gathering. Likewise, ethnocentrism develops internal unity between relatives, neighbors, and society members.

   So, it is the root of Ibn e Khaldoon’s philosophy in which he exposed how to build and begin a state: how to move on; how to improve themselves superior to others.  Thus, if today’s era people follow it, then surely prosperity itself comes towards every individual.
