RIGA - Latvia's society is the least tolerant of Muslims and Roma people, while most Latvians and Russians have no ill feelings toward each other, according to the study "Intercultural Stereotypes and Prejudices in Latvia", carried out by researchers from the University of Latvia's Institute of Philosophy and Sociology.
Martins Kaprans, a researcher at the Institute of Philosophy and Sociology, said that intercultural interaction encompassed not only openness toward others, but also prejudices. This is especially evident in the reluctance of residents of Latvia to accept people of other cultures.
