Your class has had a discussion about the negative effects of globalisation on local culture. You have
made the notes below:
Effects of globalisation:
· People are free to enjoy whichever music, films or fashion they wish.
· Young people are losing the sense of values their parents had.
Write an essay discussing TWO of the effects listed in your notes. You should explain which effect is more
important, giving reasons in support of your answer.
You may, if you wish, make use of the opinions expressed in the discussion, but you should use your own
words as far as possible. (around 220-260 words)
Nowdays, almost every culture is influenced by the globalism, which set, not only trends but future
development as well. What is the impact of the globalism and which spheres does it influence the most?
One of the effects is losing national identity, which means that people do not feel like members of their
cultural environment. That could even cause a destruction of traditions. Traditions are important for
learning about cultural history as well as pointing at our roots.
What is more, the globalism could also decrease the value of a local culture.
