Globalization, Technology and Regional culture:
Globalization pulls a
nation-state into the face of sharp competition; in old times a state had to
compete only at the regional level but now competition is open with the whole
world. Due to this open world competition our society also started moving
towards globalized village consist of technology and every advancement of
things essential in our life.
And in this competition state had
to go on with whole world, in the mean while a state destroy its own regional
culture to meet the demands of globalization.
In the formation of modernization or
globalization results always in progress and development, on the other hand,
Westernization results in blind achievement of alien culture that leads to loss
of original identity. The present situation of society does not show the signs
of modernization which illustrates the rise in literacy level, development in
science and technology, increase in resources and productive capacity,
independence in energy and food, establishment of a strong civil society able
to lead the government, absence of cultural and sectarian conflicts rather
tolerance is the guiding principle. These all are the advantages of an
globalized and renovated state but our society is not achieving it at all.
Our society is somehow stuck
between 4th and 5th generation of technology due to the
clash of regional culture and modernization.
In the beginning of 4th
generation of technology television and many other devices invented and people
of western world start talking about true comfort of life but our society
didn’t accept it at first time because they think it was not a part or thing of
our culture, we imported it form another regional culture if we adopt it will
demolished our own values and cultures. They think this type of devices would
terminate our own culture, but in the end we adopted it.
And then in the 5th
generation computer came out which shows us path for internet and then social
networking , with the use of these things people started talking about new age
of evolution begins but with time in our society or even in other societies
many problems established.
This is just not about talking
about evolution in term of technology and globalization, this is about “entire history of us” we made things
and then destroy our self with these things, we have done this in history and
in future whether we accomplished our self with 6th generation of
technology or even in further generations whatever we made it cause us always destructed.
