We clearly find some reasons about why globalization could happen:
capital reason like import and
export; physical reason like people
move from a place to another (especially across national boundaries); culture reason like language, music, movie
and religion; media reason like internet
and so on.
About the consensus of globalization, people still have lots controversies:
like does globalization exist? Is globalization a long term historical process
or just recently? (Pieterse, J, 2004, pp.8)
Well, we cannot conclude or give the answer yet but something
still can be predicted: for example, local culture gradually enriched as a
result of new culture stimulus or produce creatively culture-blended. However,
globalization also will have some negative
impact like threatening the identity, integrity and autonomy of cultural.
The first time I came to Australia I can see Australia is a
mix cultural country even I did not know it’s a country of immigrants before. People
(who come from different places) keep their traditional cultural although
everyone speaks English. You can see it from food obviously: Chinese restaurants,
Greece restaurants, Arabia restaurants and Sushi bar everywhere but no Australian
restaurants. Globalization just likes Australia, it will give you a chance to
accept lots of different things but you probably lost your identity one day.
