Here is some feedback I received from a teacher of mine:

“I had difficulty following your line of argument, until it dawn on me that you have confused the the terms ‘panculturalists’, ‘universalists’ and ‘culturalists’.”

However the positions are probably not as clear cut as their articles suggest. In what way do you think that Sedikides is both?

In the debate between Heine and Sedikides, who is the panculturalist?

(In my opinion, Sedikides is both and Heine is a cultural relativist)
