摘要：It has been argued that culture effects how individuals implement, understand, and teach the curriculum of business courses within a society’s educational institutions. The curricula and their subject matter of business faculties reflect the societies in which the curricula are developed and taught. The essay presents a rubric for analyzing this curricular phenomena based on Hofstede and Hofstede’s conception that a society’s culture constituted in and presented in individuals’ views and routines is determinate of professorial understandings and teachings of business subject matter. In particular, Hofstede’s indices on Power Distance, Uncertainty Avoidance are applied to select business curricula from the Slovak Republic and the United States. The analysis includes, for purposes, a summary table of curriuclar attributes also from a convenience sample; this time of university business programs — two from the Slovak Republic and two from the United States. The overall purpose is to determine if Hofstede’s orginal research is the same today in an era of educational globalization for three distinct populations.
