Cultural Globalization

1. Summary
Globalization is an integrated process that takes place at the same time in the field of economic political environment and technology development of culture. Globalization has a constantly connected network in modern society. All life in modern society can be connected to everything. Globalization has a great impact on the material, social, economic and cultural life of modern society. Globalization. Communication technologies such as mobile phone computers, e-mail, and the Internet increase the connectivity of our lives. Connectivity in globalization plays an important role in modern society. Connectivity in modern society, which is a capitalist society, has many effects in the economic realm.
We must resist the dominance of capitalism in the process of globalization. Because we do not deal with direct empirical judgments, and the effects or consequences of globalization on culture distort our understanding of culture and culture in some way. Globalization is easy to understand as a global market process. Cultural globalization is called "cultural imperialism," "Americanization," and "Westernization."
Clifford Geertz said that culture is not power and that social events can be the cause. Culture is the context in which events can be interpreted meaningfully, and is the root context in which man is born and begins. Culture influences people individually and collectively. The way to recognize the cultural consequences of globalization is to understand how regional action can result in globalization. Consumption behavior of people creates not only the employment of workers but also the results of industrial processes that accompany consumed resources and production processes. In other words, culture is created and formed at the same time as globalization has its effects.
People think that globalization will lead to a single global culture. In a global marketplace with tightly connected systems, I think it will affect not only the economic realm but also other sectors. Indeed, globalization is unified in some respects. But increasing globalization does not necessarily mean that the world is being unified economically or politically. The impact of globalization does not affect the entire world. Therefore, assumptions about globalization must be coordinated against society, politics and the environment. Countries called the Third World did not participate in globalized communication. The most important global economic regime is determined by developed countries except for third world countries. It is far from saying that globalization is part of the world and the unification of economic prosperity and social and technological development of Africa.
Therefore, we must understand that the concept of globalization is not integrated, and that the concept has not yet been established.
However, Western critics argue for a globalization culture in which globalization encompasses everything. Cultural globalization is a kind of cultural imperialism. Especially, it is assumed that American culture will affect world culture. Famous American brands such as "Nike, Starbucks" dominate the world. These multinational corporations have a sort of totalitarian culture.
De-territorialization
We live in different parts of the world. However, globalization is changing our experience of locality. We can identify change through de-territorialization. De-territorialization means the loss of the natural relationship of culture to geographical and social territory. This means that the boundaries and quantity of the nation are corroded. We are no longer bound to the area.
Culture was supposed to exist spatially, and to be integrated and parallel. But the connectivity of globalization undermines such a concept. This is because the diversity of globalization interferes with the meaning and combination of local culture. If globalization is a proliferation of complex socio-economic links, de-territorialization implies a range of areas where everyday life is performed and experienced. Cultural identity. Identity is a differentiated, institutionalized and socially regulated aspect of modern life.
2. What was interesting?
The concept of cultural imperialism was interesting. As an example of cultural imperialism, I think Americanization comes first.
It refers to the phenomenon of American politics, economy, society, and culture that is shaped by the American culture. Examples include hamburgers and Coca-Cola. It also refers to a phenomenon that imitates or prefers American culture. In some cases, Americanization has a negative impact but also a positive impact. People see globalization equated with Americanization. It is because America is a powerful nation and is influenced by American culture all over the world. I also think of American culture as globalization. It was interesting to know the meaning of cultural imperialism in detail.
3. Discussion Point
Globalization is a stepping stone to further promote your own unique culture in the world. In the world of standardized monitors, national competitiveness will come not only in technology and capital, but also in the times when culture will become a standard for judging the level of the country. Nowadays Insadong becomes a street of unknown nationality, and foreigners do not look into our culture as before. Shopping and business, not cultural observations, can be done in other countries as well. There must be something else attracted. If we take a subordinate attitude to match ourselves to Western civilization in the era of globalization, we may be neglected in terms of culture. In addition to the Internet, the nation 's share of English has risen to 95%. Under the same "English", if the individual is treated as an individual, then the concept of a nation that is divided into languages may disappear by 2050. Our culture and language have a deep history and science that is well respected and something unique. We think that we are overlooking immediate globalization and overlooking the essence of the essential situation. Is there any way to accept globalization with our national identity?
