ANALYSIS
In order to prevent stereotypes, the media is crucial in educating the public and
acquainting them with various cultures. Through worldwide news broadcasts, television
programming, new technology, cinema, and music, the mass media are now recognized
as being crucial in advancing globalization and fostering cultural interaction as well as
many flows of information and images across nations.
The media is the main source of information nowadays since it is so important to
our daily lives. Due to cultural imperialism, which has largely absorbed the culture and
values of global civilization, the ambition of every person is to live in a contemporary,
westernized society.
The cultural imperialism idea in international communication theory and research
stated that media messages coming from the Western industrialized countries had a
significant impact on audiences all over the world.Although cultural imperialism does
have certain flaws, this essay claims that it is nevertheless beneficial. The claim that
power permeates transnational communication flows, processes, and impacts is
arguably cultural imperialism's most significant contribution.
Cultural hybridity, often known as hybridization, is another viewpoint on
globalization. This point of view gives preference to an understanding of how localization
and globalization interact as a dynamic process and hybrid end-result of blended
cultural forms.
The consuming patterns of audiences have also changed as a result of the
globalization of media, and this has produced a climate that both encourages and calls
for hybridized media content. Understanding transnational media creation tactics, the
effects of cultural exporting and importing in a globalized world, and how audiences
respond to transnational media contents are important.
The media has supported globalization, and as a result, individuals of many
ethnicities and cultures are now able to share ideas and beliefs that will improve their
lives. Although we cannot deny that the media is one of the most significant aspects of
our lives today, it is crucial to recognize that it plays a critical part in determining our
culture.
