Will globalization lead to the loss of cultural identity.

Dear Kitos,
Thank you in advance!
Will globalization lead to the loss of cultural identity.
Globalization is a tremendous and complicated process that affects various aspects of human life in both positive and negative ways. While many people consider globalization as a “powerful wave” that will destroy the cultural identity of all human beings, others oppose to that opinion by stating that cultural identity will not be affected by any changes in our society. From my point of view, culture is an attribute that people have carried and will throughout centuries.
First of all, culture is something that has occurred and developed from the ancient times. While a lot of different processes occurred on the Earth, cultural heritage was about to be destroyed at some certain historical moments. But, no matter how hardly some opponents of cultural traditions tried to disrupt them, there were always people who kept to their cultural traditions and values and passed them to the next generations. Moreover, with the development of science and technology people all over the world have gotten the chance to explore not only their cultural roots but also cognize other foreign cultures and determine their cultural identity. Globalization has given people an individual right to choose which culture they would prefer to belong to.
Above all, the global integration and communication performed by the means of the Internet and other technologies allows people to get deeper knowledge of other cultures and widen their horizons. Though people are getting access to new technologies more easily, it does not mean that using computers impacts their identity. Technologies make our life easier, but they should not set our life on an entirely different course and change our way of thinking and loosing our cultural identity. Quite reverse is true, with the new technologies people get a chance to learn more about their own and foreign cultures, using different resources and having access to a large amount of materials stored on-line.
To summarize, globalization has definitely changed our life in different aspects. But, the main strategy of human beings is to succeed in both cultural and educational development. Globalization broadens our horizons, while cultural identity remains a vital part of our life that reminds us about our ancestors, values and aim in life.

Best regards,
Alina

Will globalization lead to the loss of cultural identity(?)

Globalization is a tremendous and complicated process that affects various aspects of human life in both positive and negative ways. While many people consider globalization as a “powerful wave” that will destroy the cultural identity of all human beings, others oppose to that opinion by stating that cultural identitIES will not be affected by any changes in our society. From my point of view, culture is an attribute that people have carried, and will CONTINUE TO CARRY, throughout THE COMING centuries.
First of all, THE culture OF A NATION is something that has occurred and developed from the ancient times OVER COUNTLESS YEARS. While a lot of different processes HAVE occurred on the earth, cultural heritage WERE about to be destroyed at some certain historical moments. But, No matter how VIGOROUSLY some opponents of cultural traditions tried to disrupt them, there were always people who kept to their cultural traditions and values, and passed them ON to the next generations. Moreover, with the development of science and technology, people all over the world have gotten the chance to explore not only their cultural roots, but TO also cognize other foreign cultures and determine their cultural identity. Globalization has given people an individual right to choose which culture they would prefer to belong to.
Above all, the global integration and communication performed by the means of the Internet and other technologies allows people to GAIN deeper knowledge of other cultures and widen their horizons. ALThough people are getting NOW ABLE TO access to new technologies more easily, it does not mean that using computers impacts their identity. Technologies make our LIVES easier, but they should not set our life on an entirely different course and change our way of thinking and LOSING our cultural identity. Quite THE reverse is true. With the new technologies people get a chance to learn more about their own and foreign cultures, using different resources and having access to a large amount of materials stored on-line.
To summarize, globalization has definitely changed our LIVES in different aspects, YET the main strategy of human beings is to succeed in both cultural and educational development. Globalization broadens our horizons, while cultural identity remains a vital part of our LIVES that reminds us about our ancestors values and aimS in life.
