In chapter 7 it discusses about the
characteristics of high and low long term orientation so thinking about long term decision making and short term thinking. Chinese are traditionally strongly influenced by Confucius thoughts which promote ideas of hierarchy of relationships, hard word, ideas of thrift, persistence, etc...These characteristics belong to long term orientation culture, like in Asian culture. In American culture the thinking is quite different, the mentality is more heuristic feelings. The views on marriage is different like in American culture they marry for "love" and how tehy feel in the current time but in a high long term culture society they might marry for class and financial stability or stability of any sort. It's basically now vs. future.
