Use the links below to learn more about your role. Specifically, look for answers to the following:
1) Consider what are the key elements of a countries culture. How does Globalisation impact on these?
2) What relationship exists between globalisation and the decline of individual cultures?
3) Does Globalisation lead to a 'monoculture'? Consider this in light of the discussion on 'Americanization' of the world.
4) As an Australian consider the impact of other cultures on your life style.
