Monoculturalism

Monoculturalism is the practice of actively preserving a national culture via the exclusion of external influences. Japan, South Korea, and North Korea are examples of monoculturalism. Usually a monocultural society exists due to racial homogeneity, nationalistic tendencies, geographic isolation, or political isolation (sometimes but not always under a totalitarian regime).
