THE INFLUENCE OF GLOBALIZATION ON INDONESIAN CULTURE

Abstract

Globalization has a considerable influence on aspects of human life, not only with positive but also negative impacts. Lots of young generations of the Indonesian nation are affected by the impact of globalization, one of which is following a westernized culture which can result in cultural degradation. Therefore, it is important to filter every influence that results from globalization so that it does not fall into negative things. The existence of globalization has an impact on humans. The impact obtained from the influence of globalization is that it makes it easier for humans to access information that exists throughout the world and makes it easier to communicate through technological advances obtained with globalization. However, the influence of globalization can have a negative impact, namely that young generations are still not able to filter the effects of globalization so that it is eroded by the times where young generations tend to follow westernized culture.
