Malinchism

Malinchism (Spanish: malinchismo) is a form of attraction that a person from one culture develops for another culture, a particular case of cultural cringe.[1] It has been described as an ethnic inferiority complex or national self-hatred.[2] The term is used in Latin America, and especially in Mexico, to refer to the development of an admiration for the culture, ideas, behaviors, and lifestyle of the United States over those that are homegrown.[3]
