Nowadays people from different countries watch and enjoy the same films, advertisements, music, and fashion. Do you agree or disagree? What are advantages and
disadvantages of this development?
People, all across the world, today are
believed to be having similar tastes in many walks of life, especially in the
realms of entertainment and clothing, even
though it is for sure, this phenomenon has its own strengths and failings.
It is quite true that inhabitants of various
countries at large, across the length and the breadth of the globe, have developed
similar tastes. They are influenced by global trends due to the advent of ever
expanding internet and social media. These factors have fuelled a strange trend
-individuals are getting a wide exposure, due to open and convenient
interaction, and they are often found discussing various things amongst
themselves which ultimately has helped develop similar tastes.
This phenomenon has brought in great
benefits, as people now behave like inhabitants of a global village. One can
experience a sweet bonhomie among the natives of various cultures, societies
and countries. This is a quite positive development as it indicates fostering similar
views and aspirations which may lead to creation of harmony among the citizens
of planet some day and bring in an end to a constant tussle and conflicts.
Nevertheless, whatever may be the case, there
are serious shortfalls of this shift, as we may see many cultures and
languages, especially of the poor countries disappearing soon. It can be
clearly experienced that similar aspirations are being supported and promoted
by dominant cultures and languages of specific nations;
this has led others to believe that they belong to inferior societies, and thus
people, especially the youth, are not
interested in perpetuating their native cultures further.
Henceforth, people across the world have
started developing similar tastes, but despite having several benefits this
trend does have serious shortfalls, and we might see the fallout of such
aspects pretty soon.
