Cultural Identiy and Education:
...educators and learners, we must point out that "cultural identity", an expression that we use more and more, cannot pretend to exhaust the whole meaning of the phenomenon "identity". the attribute "cultural," expanded from the restrictive attributes "class", does not exhaust the understanding of the term "identity". In reality, we men and women become special and singular beings... in truth, we are neither only what we inherit nor only what we acquire but, instead, stem from the dynamic relationship between what we inherit and what we acquire.

There is a lot more to a person's identity than just what comes from his cultural milieu. People of a common background do share certain beliefs and ways, but any given person in the group has values, talents, and qualities that go far beyond those shared attributes. When you talk about cultural identity, you're necessarily talking in generalities -- not a bad thing, as long as you are clear that you're just discussing how a certain population is similar, one member to another. If you say that the Japanese educational system fosters cooperation and shared goals, but discourages individuality, that is true. But if you try to extend that and say that the Japanese people are clonelike or unimaginative, you'll be gravely mistaken. It would be better to say that conventional Japanese ettiquette favors a narrowly-defined, do-as-everyone-else-does ethic; but that privately, a Japanese person is very much his or her own person.
