This study aims not only to critically analyse our society’s socio-cultural attitudes dealing with cultural diversity in the globalized reality, but also to present academical necessity of the intercultural perspective as attitude change.
Girard believes that culture originated from social processes of imitating others and from mechanism to control the degree of imitative behaviors. It can be said that culture functions as a system for controling imitative desires.
Phenomenologically, the legitimacy of imitative desire is determined by whether the consciousness intentionally coincides with its object. But the distorted desire cannot correspond to the essence of its objects. Because intentionality of the consciousness is distorted by prejudiced Pre- Understandings.
As a result, this study, focusing on Girard’s Mimesis Theory, aims to clarify that we need to enhance our judgment ability to face essential facets of desires through phenomenological Epoche, so rather than formally and superficially imitating others’ mimetic desires.
