It is sometimes translated as cultural shock. Culture is a value system that guides human behavior and thinking. People who belong to a society often share a common culture. Therefore, people try to understand others based on their own culture, but when they encounter a culture that is different from their own, they experience various shocks. When two cultures come into contact, the shock that is given to one or both cultures is called culture shock. The shock that the arrival of the black ships at the end of the Edo period had on the Japanese people and Japanese culture at that time is a typical example.

文化的衝撃と訳されることもある。文化とは人間の行動や考え方の指針となる価値体系のことである。一つの社会に属する人々は文化を共有している場合が多い。そのため人間は自分の文化を基準にして相手を理解しようとするが,自分の文化と異なる文化に出会ったときには,さまざまのショックを受ける。このように文化と文化が接触する際に,一方もしくは双方の文化に与えられる衝撃をカルチャー・ショックと呼ぶ。幕末における黒船の出現が,当時の日本人,日本文化に与えた衝撃もその典型例といえる。
