Reverse ethnocentrism :
Thinking that another race is more superior then the person's own race
Intense Racism:
Persuasive negatives beliefs that devalue and discriminate
Symbolic Racism:
Attitude towards people seen as outgroup, other outgroup seen as causing trouble or discrupting dominant values
Tokenism :
a subtle form of prejudice
Arms length prejudice, non prejudicial actions are demonstrated in public and social settings, but warmth and friendliness are withheld in private settings
Many different forms of racism. Hope you have gained a new level of insight -
As we all mature into another level in this forum ,nevertheless , we should have Ethono-relativism, which is based on a deep and heart felt respect for every other culture in order to maintain harmony, thread creators who do not think twice, but create a potential hazardous thread , ought to be heavily warned!

i dont know how you got ur own definition of ethnocentrism, but i am studying the business aspect of it.
Its concerned with the orientation of companies towards international management.
For example, in its early stage in expansion into overseas market, it will send its own people over there first. The overseas branch will have the tendency to adopt the culture of the home country of the business
Only when the company size grew in that overseas market, then will it adopt the culture of the host country. That will be polycentrism.

Lets us understand that why theres racism. what is the cause of racism worldwide and here? Its what we have seen and observe that certain races are always so conspirical or have they done something so bad that they instigated racism? and since when when we are young everybody has a silver spoon in his/her mouth? please be not naive in beliving that we are living in a equaliity society? For there are still terrorist acts and wars in the world right now.

i believe people who practise racism are suffering from the opposite of diffethnophilicity. it is a chronic illness that demonstrates itselt in different morphologies across the world, meaning, two different people who contracted this may develop racism against two different alternations.
