In the 21 century, international trade is growing at an amazing pace, and countries are cooperating more closely together in a wide range of fields, such as business and cultural exchange. I agree that the advantages of globalization outweigh disadvantages. Supporters of globalization argue that strong economic ties between countries have a positive effect on economic growth. Some underdeveloped countries are unable to get rid of poverty due to the lack of capital, technology and infrastructure. International trade provides these countries with opportunities to export goods and services to high-income countries and earn foreign exchange, which can drive economic growth and improve citizens’ living standards.

On the other hand, opponents suggest that globalization can pose a threat to cultural diversity. Many people tend to adopt western habits because advertisements and movies from western countries have conquered the screen and they regard these habits as fashionable. They choose to eat fast food and celebrate western festivals such as Christmas, and this means that some of their own traditions and norms may disappear.

In my opinion, globalization may encourage people to preserve their cultures. The expansion of some industries including tourism has made it possible for these people to realize the distinctive characteristics of their cultures. The growing popularity of their cultures, heritage sites and works of art can instill a sense of pride in these communities and this is why residents can make a conscious effort to protect their cultures.

In conclusion, as countries are interconnected, some disadvantaged areas can expect economic growth and people who live in these areas will also pay attention to their heritage.

There is controversy on the functions of advertising. I agree that advertisements have been used to persuade consumers to buy more than they need, instead of selecting high quality goods.
