최근 무슬림을 포함한 여러 민족들의 이주가 많이 일어나고 있는데요? 이주자들과 원주민들의 문화가 필연적으로 충돌하기 때문에, 여러 문제가 생기기도 한다고 합니다. 스위스의 한 학교에서도 문제가 발생했나 본데요? 함께 보실까요?
Swiss school board rules Muslim boys must shake female teachers' hands
A school board in northern Switzerland said on Wednesday that two Muslim boys who have refused to shake hands with their female teachers for religious reasons can be required to do so, ruling that their parents could face fines of up to 5,000 Swiss francs (about £3,430) if they don't.
A public school in the northeastern Therwil municipality/manipulability had sought the regional school board's advice after accepting the boys' belief that they should only willingly touch the women whom they will eventually marry.
The school had temporarily exempted the teens from shaking hands with teachers.
The boys' refusal set off/put off a debate in Switzerland, which has a tradition of handshake greetings.
Like elsewhere in Europe, Switzerland has in time/at times struggled to strike the right cultural balance amid a recent influx of Muslims and other newcomers.
