What Is Globalization
Culture Effects
Globalization has many benefits and detriment to the culture in the developing
countries. Many developing countries cultures has been changed through globalization,
and became imitate others cultures such as, America and European countries. Before
globalization it would not have been possible to know about other countries and their
cultures. Due to important tools of globalization like television, radio, satellite and
internet, it is possible today to know what is happening in any countries such as,
America, Japan and Australia. Moreover, people worldwide can know each other better
through globalization.
Furthermore, globalization leads to disappearing of many words and expressions from
local language because many people use English and French words. In addition, great
changes have taken place in the family life, young people trying to leave their families
and live alone when they get 18 years old, and the extended family tends to become
smaller than before
In conclusion, as we can see, the process of globalization has involved all the countries
around the world. Developing countries such as India, China, Africa, Iraq, Syria,
Lebanon and Jordan have been affected by globalization, and whether negatively or
positively, the economies of these countries have improved under the influence of
globalization. The size of direct foreign investment has increased and a lot of bad habits
and traditions erased, but also globalization has brought many drawbacks to these
countries as well. Many customs and cultures are disappeared such as traditions clothes
and some language and expressions have changed. In addition, the violence and drugs
abuse are increased and a lot of deadly diseases have spread under the influence of
globalization. However, although globalization has many disadvantages, we believe that
globalization has brought the developing countries many more benefits than the
detriments. For example, we can see there is more and a biggest opportunity for people
in both developed countries and developing countries to sell as many goods to as many
people as right now, so we can say this is the golden age for business, commerce and
trade.
