Kelly's Plan

Topic: Should we accept global cultural homogeneity

1- Introduction: Modern technology make the internet available for everyone, it broaderns the scope of friends immensely, therefore we are easy to connect with people from different races, religions and cultures.
2- Definition of Global Culture & the trend of global cultural identity nowadays.
3- There maybe profound negative effects on global cultural sameness.
a) lose traditional culture, decline of cultural diversity;
b) erode the national identity and national pride of one country;
c) people like foreign brands, this will strike the local business.
4- However, we can not ignore the benefits that global culture brings to us.
a) people come from different cultures tend to communicate with each other much more than before;
b) The transnational companies will be easier to train their employees and hold meeting in different countries;
c) It boots international transactions.
5- There are many more positive effects of global cultural homogeneity.
a) make people’s life colourful (fashion; technology) & boot the consumption.
b) more entertainment: Movies(Hollywood blockbusters); Music; international cyber games.
6- Conclusion:
a) Summary: The boons brought about by global cultural homogeneity outweigh its harms.
b) Recommendations: Since global cultural homogeneity brings us lots of benefits, we ought to accept it. But we can never throw our traditional cultures into toilet, traditional cultures are our intangible heritages, we have to inherit them anyway.
