Globalization refers to the process or processes of international integration. The development of an increasingly

integrated global economy marked especially by free trade, free flow of capital, and the tapping of cheaper foreign

labor markets.

Globalization is the process where the economies of various countries in the world become more and more

connected to one another. In a globalized economy, people from one country can buy goods...

The advantages of globalizationare numerous. Freedom of trade between countries has known a rise and people

are able to travel abroad easier which contribute in social benefits. Information travel faster around the world viamedia and people are able to keep in touch what is happening on a global aspect. Other advantages of

globalization are that consumers and companies benefit as they have access to a wider range of goods and more

opportunity for business to expand. Long ago people depend entirely on job opportunities in their country but

nowadays with the effect of globalization, people are able to compete abroad for a job. Through globalization,

causes an increase in capital for developed countries has been able to increase their capital and can invest the

latter in developing countries.

However it should be noted that globalization has also some disadvantages. Another major damage of globalization

is that some cultures are getting lost. The cultures of the countries that have more economic power are more

dominant than others. Because, wealthy countries produce many things that can affect cultures, for example,

clothes, movies and technologic products. Countries become increasingly dependent on other countries for

meeting their needs for goods and services. This can become a major disadvantage in situations like war.

Globalization may also lead to faster spread of infectious disease, for people animals and plants. Such infection may

be carried through, people or goods.

Via globalization many poor countries have been able to improve their economic situation and this have raised the

standard of living of the population.

Every nation has its own customs and traditions. Why people keep up their traditions?

What are traditions? A tradition is a ritual, belief or object passed down within a society, still maintained in the

present, with origins in the past. Traditions can persist and evolve for thousands of years. Every nation has its own

customs and traditions. The customs and traditions in different countries are really different and they are passed

from generation to generation. Some of them are famous all over the world, over are beyond ones mentality. But

people respect and claim their attention to all traditions, they keep up their tradition and practice for centuries

because they mean not only way of life, but also culture and history, they are in the key position for each country.

What components does culture consists of?

What exactly does culture mean? Is it something material you can touch? Or is it something immaterial, such as

values and beliefs? Or is it our customs and traditions, our festivals and celebrations?. Culture consists of the types

of food, clothes, language, traditions, values, beliefs, etc. of a specific population of peoples. The essence of a

culture is not its artifacts, tools, or other tangible cultural elements but how the members of the group interpret,

use, and perceive them. It is the values, symbols, interpretations, and perspectives that distinguish one people

from another in modernized societies; it is not material objects and other tangible aspects of human societies.

People within a culture usually interpret the meaning of symbols, artifacts, and behaviors in the same or in similar

ways." Culture consists of behavior acquired and transmitted by symbols, constituting the distinctive achievements

of human groups, including their embodiments in artifacts; the essential core of culture consists of traditional ideas

and especially their attached values; culture systems may, on the one hand, be considered as products of action,

and on the other as conditioning elements of further action.
