INFORMATIONAL |
I agree with your answers and do you think that with the informational globalisation there will be major problems caused by the disinformation coming from all around the world?
ResponderBorrarI believe that disinformation will always cause problems regardless of whether it is from the other side of the world, but I also believe that thanks to informational globalization it will be easier to deny fake news.
BorrarIn point number 3, although I agree with you, do you believe that the inclusion of different nationalities into the workplace might have cultural undertones?
ResponderBorrarI think yes. Cultures can become very different from each other, so a work environment where many cultures coexist will always be under problems, so as a society we must learn to be empathetic to each other.
BorrarWhat do you think about point 4 because I was undecided if it was informational or political but being countries that joined together to formed organizations I choosed political
ResponderBorrarI think it is a political question because if many countries come together they create an interdependence that will mainly favor their economies.
BorrarHave you changed any of your cultural traditions thanks to the cultural globalization?
ResponderBorrarAnd it is. I really like Asian culture and I consider that something that I have changed thanks to them has been eating with chopsticks instead of a fork or being distant when greeting someone.
BorrarI agree with everything:) Which aspect of globalization has impacted you the most?
ResponderBorrarI consider the technological part, because I am used to using many electrical appliances that, if they were not sold in Mexico, would hinder my way of living.
BorrarIt is impressive how Disneyland is part of globalization, it is only an amusement park. It has managed to enter to many countries and I must also say that the hava known how to involve different cultures in their characters
ResponderBorrarWhat do you think about Disney and how they have been part of cultural globalization?
I believe that Disney has managed to reach the hearts of different cultures, that has made it increasingly expand its borders and that people feel identified with its brand. I consider that this company has been a giant in globalization.
BorrarI think the same as you in terms of activity, but you can tell me for you What advantages and disadvantages does globalization have?
