Summary: In the modern world it is very important to understand the terms “globalization” and “culture”. Globalization is a process which involves changes in the natural human life. In other words we may call it as changes in the culture of that particular human being or any other particular group. Culture of a group or particular person mainly tells about the life of people or person, living traditions, historical values, religious matters in that particular social system. So we could say culture is a subsystem with in a lager social system. Now a days every modern critic usually thinks about the globalization and effect of globalization on culture. Does it having positive effect on the culture or does it having negative effect on culture. So it is very important to understand what is global culture? and how it is effecting social life, political life etc. For seeing how the world globalized here we compared three different eras and observed the effect of globalization on culture. Globalization is nothing but interaction, integration exchanging of views and other aspects of culture. It is very important to spread any matter from one part to the other part. If you observe the modern world we could easily say it is modernized or in other words globalized. Globalization is helping us to see different cultures, social activities and cultural division around us. Author discussed three different examples from different periods from twelfth century to current twenty first century to show how globalization showing effects on the culture. In the first example i.e. Ebstorf Mappa Mundi author giving an example of views of particular culture on birth and their belief on God’s creation on mankind. Every culture in the ... ... middle of paper ... ...evelop. But the original impact of globalization is shows on culture in some particular aspects. So every place different from other place in terms of culture and habitats. So it is very important for every culture or ethnic group to adjust. In my views globalization is very beneficial as long as it is not harming the main culture activities. Bibliography: 1. J. Tomlinson 1999: Globalization and culture. 2.

Globalization is nothing new and will continue to manifest itself in non-western societies and cultures throughout the world. Some cultures accept the changes that come with globalization. Most cultures bring and find both economic and cultural growth to be the outcome of accepting globalization. However, there is always the risk that globalization comes with the possibility of destroying rituals and unique cultural practices bringing about a decline or stoppage in the progress that a society was achieving. Globalization is an unstoppable force; while we are powerless to stop it, we must be responsible when introducing change, and strive to preserve the heart of the culture being effected by globalization. (Kim, 2009)
Cultural globalization involves the “spread of culture beyond the region or state from which it originated.” (Davies 1). To understand what cultural globalization is, one must understand what falls under the category of culture, which includes religion, language,
According to Cox & Blake (1991), developing an organizational culture that values cultural diversity in the workplace is one of the spheres of activity in the management of cultural diversity (p.46). As part of a valuing diversity approach, organizational leaders should ensure that the organization is flexible enough to accommodate employees from different cultural backgrounds. The process of developing an organizational culture that values cultural diversity includes valuing cultural differences, promoting cultural inclusion, and treating cultural differences as prevailing value systems.
Diversity is a concept that I believe most people do not have the correct knowledge of nor do they understand what it truly means. Being able to help educate others about diversity would mean the world to me, therefore it’s important for me to understand diversity. In order to understand diversity it’s especially crucial to have an open mind so that one can truly understand. I have traveled to Ecuador, worked with Me to We, taken diversity focused classes, participated in the 2015 Global Youth Summit, as well as created an awareness presentation with fellow students to further my understanding and knowledge of diversity.
Globalization is the action of all nations to interact on a global scale to better the undeveloped countries and to lessen the risk of of one nation to attack another because of their need for a vital product such as oil, minerals, food and especially land. By sharing the wealth of one country with the needs of another country, they develop and obtain higher standard of living that can be reciprocated to the wealthy country in the form of a finished product or a natural resource. Globalization has been a very good thing for America and will continue to do so, when America eliminates unwanted and nonproductive illegal immigrants.with this continued influx of people are resources are at a breaking point.
Globalization is a term which became popular after the 3th quarter of the 20th century. It is used to describe the movement of people, information, commodities and financial tools across national borders which increase the interconnection between countries economically, politically, socially and culturally. The effects of globalisation on different fields are one of the main discussion topics of these days. One can easily find thousands of articles on the impacts of globalisation on economy, agriculture, politics, democracy, science and even on climate. However, globalisation and its effects on culture is an unheeded area. The defenders of globalisation consciously avoid discussing culture, because they all know that globalisation is the main source of cultural genocide.
In Haiti, the family is the most important aspect of their culture. When making important decisions, especially involving the health of a family member, the family is consulted. Family is so important to the culture that everything a person does is reflected onto the family. Everyone represents the family they are in. Because of this, every Haitian family has a reputation which can affect its status and respect in society. Families are so close to one another that it is mandatory to visit a sick member, even if they live far away. In a healthcare context, this can lead to a large number of visitors.20
Globalization is the worldwide movement, which contains economic, financial, trade and communications integration. Meanwhile, globalization is a process of interaction among the people, companies, governments and different nations. Moreover, this process is driven by the international trade, investments and the development of technology. Then, the process would be effect on the economy, environment and culture as well. In this portfolio, cultural impact of globalization will be discussed.
The biggest Concern regarding culture is that globalization contributes to the loss of culture. As western culture is imposed on the rest of the world there is less diversity and we become more homogeneous, meaning be become more like one big culture. Take any of the big companies for example, Apple, McDonalds, or Starbucks you can find then in an increasing number of countries. This homogeneous culture though does not have to be a terrible thing furthermore, Mark Pagel argues that is a valuable thing. According to Pagel globalization helps culture because “it increases our sense of togetherness via the sense of a shared culture. In fact, breaking down of cultural barriers – unfashionable as this can sound – is probably one of the few things that societies can do to increase harmony among ever more heterogeneous peoples.” Palgel is right, we like know we have a connection to other people, we like knowing that the things we enjoy and the things they enjoy are the same. A few years ago, I went on a mission trip to Peru and as scary as it was to be outside of the country with only the support of my fellow peers- who were also quite nervous about the endeavor- it was comforting to see familiar restaurants like KFC, McDonalds, Starbucks and Papa Johns. Even some of the school children we met were familiar with the same social medias like Facebook, and Instagram. I recall sing
Another negative effect is the merging and interaction between cultures. When those cultures become globalized, their chances of facing loss of tradition and culture will be extremely high. The ones that are most likely to b...
Human culture is a very diverse element of humanity. It has a variety of different building blocks that create the full meaning of the term. It involves aspects such as food, customs, music, language, and art. Similar patterns of culture form groups of people with common beliefs and lifestyles known as societies or communities. Culture can vary based on location of the society and the history of how the culture arose. Culture is constantly changing in so many ways and controversy arises between these societies with different views. In Barbara Gallatin Anderson’s book, Around the World in 30 Years, and several of the case studies the class has discussed this year, these diverse cultures were closely analyzed and the problems that arose from
The definition of globalization is, “Globalization is the connection of different parts of the world.

As Tomlinson mentioned in his article, Globalization and Culture Identity, who we are as a society changes when we travel, speak to different people, experience new things and interact with other societies outside of our own. This concept translates to globalization’s effect on culture as well. Through
culture - is something that is supposed to be respected and cherished - each and everyone has a set of values that justifies its existence, however globalization allows us more diversity and possibilities to see new and vider wiews around the world.
