Is globalisation a threat to Middle Eastern culture ? No it mostly helps spread the culture
Supporting reason 1: The role of islamic principals
Fixed values / cannot be changed
govern people's lives = part of culture
Example1: Sharia law
Example2: Islamic values (charity, forgiveness, honesty, patience, justice, respecting parents and elders )
Counter argument 1: Cultural and contemporary
can
co-exist
where new doesn't replace old
There's need for both local and global chains in market
due to globalisation:
modern takes on traditional designs/ architecture / food/ clothing
preserves culture for longer
companies encouraged to expand world-wide
Promotes sharing culture
Supporting reason 2: Increases awareness/ education
Breaking barriers
cultural exchange and appreciation
preserving national identity
Via
Publishing books/ online articles
Posting videos/ images
National galaries / museums
Supporting reason 3: The role of cultural celebrations
held annually & people visit from all over the world to attend
Festivals
traditional music/ dance/ food
Parades
eg: in Soud Wakif
Holidays
Counter Argument 2: Arabs will
not
lose their identity
take pride in their culture and history
preserving it for centuries
This explains why they:
teach falconry still
breed pure Arabian horses
wear traditional garments still
Thobe / abaya
eat mostly traditional meals( home cooked )
machboos/ harees/ balaleet/ thareed ect
