본문내용

Globalization is one of the major features of the 21st century, and the term has come into common usage since the 1980s. In the essay Cultural Globalization is Not Americanization, Philippe Legrain states, “America is an outlier, not a global leader” (573). The writer thinks globalization leads not to Americanized uniformity, but cultural variety through an explosion of cultural exchange. I recognize that there is a lot of cultural mixing, but I think that America is such a powerful country that it surpasses other all countries in economic, cultural, and social life in the twenty-fist century. Moreover, unrestricted acceptance of culture on account of globalization causes a significant amount of Americanized uniformity. Therefore, it is important for South Koreans to concentrate on how to keep pace with this trend since globalization is very likely to be inevitable and irreversible.
America is dominating the culture of other nations today, and cultural diffusion of each country makes the global culture similar to American culture. Since national borders have fallen, each country is close to every other, so cultural exchange is easier than ever before. However, it is likely that the culture of a powerful nation is alive, but the weak one disappears when each culture interacts. In Prologue: The Super-Story, Thomas L. Friedman says “in the globalization system, the United States is now the sole and dominant superpower and all other nations are subordinate to it to one degree or another” (165). This sentence supports the argument that American culture greatly influences other nations as well.
