Family Values
The family is the centre of Argentine life with
extended families still having prominence.
The heads of powerful families command widespread
respect, but with this comes a responsibility to care for
others in terms of security, jobs, etc and to maintain
personal and family honour.
Honour is in all respects the be all and end all and it
routinely affects day-to-day life at home, in the
community and in business.
How do people greet each other?
Initial greetings are formal and follow a set protocol of
greeting the eldest or most important person first
A standard handshake, with direct eye contact and a
welcoming smile will suffice
Maintaining eye contact indicates interest
In general, Argentines prefer third-party introductions,
so you should wait for your host or hostess to introduce
you to others at a small gathering
When leaving, say good-bye to each person individually
How do they react to
strangers?
Argentines are generally very hospitable people
