In the past anthropologists looked down on the objects of the research, asking themselves "what is the difference between him and me" in such a way that the research subjects were placed in a lower, unequal position. In fact, people should think about the fact that "the difference between you and me" is the prerequisite to dialogue.
過去人類學家研究的態度是俯視對象，尋找「他和我有什麼不同」，兩者地位並不平等；然而事實上，應該是去反省「我和他有什麼不同」，這樣才有對話的可能。
