What is the relation between culture and globalization？----WANG YIKE

 The relationship between culture and globalization is one of mutual influence and interaction. From a Chinese cultural perspective, this can be likened to the ancient idea of "融通" (integration and connection), where different cultural elements interact and evolve without losing their core essence.

Key Points of the Relationship:

  1. Cultural Exchange: Globalization facilitates the sharing of ideas, traditions, and values, much like the cultural exchanges that occurred during the Silk Road era. This exchange enriches all participants, fostering mutual understanding and growth.

  2. Cultural Preservation: While globalization introduces external influences, cultures often strive to maintain their unique identities. This aligns with the Chinese value of "传承" (inheritance), emphasizing the importance of passing down traditions while embracing modernity.

  3. Cultural Adaptation: Cultures adapt to globalization by blending external elements with local practices. This is reminiscent of the Chinese concept of "中西合璧" (combining Chinese and Western elements) to create new forms of expression.

  4. Tensions and Balance: Globalization can sometimes create cultural homogenization, leading to concerns about losing traditional values. In Chinese thought, this reflects the principle of "阴阳平衡" (balance of yin and yang), where harmony must be sought between openness and preservation.

In essence, culture and globalization are intertwined, with globalization acting as a bridge that connects diverse cultural worlds, while each culture contributes its unique essence to the global tapestry.

1. Summary Scientific method is a method of acquiring knowledge, a systematic mode of thinking and a means of research, which is used to solve problems, explore laws and test theories. The key processes include observing phenomena, constructing hypotheses, planning experiments, collecting data, analyzing results, and summarizing conclusions. The scientific method focuses on proof and repeatability, using experiments and observations to test hypotheses during research, and adjusting or confirming theories based on data. 2. Mention of new, interesting The debate between postmodernism and modernism has been going on for a long time, and they have done a lot of research to carry out this debate. Although this problem has been solved with the efforts of scientists, it also shows that the development of anything is not static, and only continuous exploration can make better progress. 3.

  summarize The scientific method is not a single recipe. It requires intelligence, creativity and imagination. In this sense it is not a blind standard or procedure, but more a way of thinking that encourages us to remain open and critical, constantly challenging and validating existing theories. The scientific method is not a single recipe. It requires intelligence, creativity and imagination. In this sense it is not a blind standard or procedure, but more a way of thinking that encourages us to remain open and critical, constantly challenging and validating existing theories. About the points I learned 1. The scientific method is based on careful observation and rigorous skepticism. This means that scientists should not readily accept any ideas or assumptions, but should always question and think critically about observational data. 2.Scientific inquiry is not merely the pursuit of truth, but the process of shedding inhibited skepticism and establishing reliable beliefs.

 Summary: Social stratification is a multidimensional concept encompassing the impact of factors such as wealth, income, race, education, and occupation on individuals' social status. In modern Western societies, social stratification is typically divided into upper class, middle class, and lower class, with each class further subdivided into smaller categories. Social stratification is not only about quantitative inequalities but also involves beliefs and attitudes toward social status. Within complex social structures, there exist various stratification phenomena, with the most privileged individuals and families enjoying disproportionate access to income, power, and other social resources. Social mobility refers to the movement of individuals, social groups, or populations between or within layers of the stratification system. Open stratification systems allow for mobility between individuals, whereas closed systems have minimal mobility, with social status often remaining uncha...
