A Venn diagram is an illustration that uses circles to show the relationships among things or finite groups of things. In a comparison Venn Diagram, circles that overlap have a commonality while circles that do not overlap do not share those traits. As per the image, a Venn diagram can be used to compare individualism and collectivism. As the image suggests, individualism stresses individual goals and the rights of the individual person. Collectivism focuses on group goals, what is best for the collective group, and personal relationships. Individualist cultures stress the importance of each person taking care of themselves without depending on others for assistance. Those in collectivist cultures may instead stress sharing the burden of care with the group as a whole.
