Answer:

Cultural relativism is the perspective that a foreign culture should not be judged by the standards of a home culture and that a behavior or way of thinking must be examined in its cultural context.

This concept is also related to neocolonialism, xenocentrism and ethnocentrism. All of these implite a culture that believes is better than other.
