Spec Check

Concept Checker:3.6a. Cultural diffusion occurs as a result of globalisation; TNCs, global media corporations (role of TNCs), tourism and migration create and spread and increasingly ‘westernised’ global culture which impacts on both the environment and people (Changing diets in Asia). The spread of global culture has also led to a new awareness of opportunities for disadvantaged groups (Paralympic movement) particularly in emerging and developing countries (P: opportunities for these groups)Slide5
Slide6

What is Cultural Diffusion?

Diffuse = spread or cause to spread over a wide area or among a large number of people.Slide7

TNCs

Influence:Food, clothes, goodsSayings and slogans catch on e.g ‘Just do It’Uniform products bring changes to placesTHINK, PAIR, SHARE. Evaluation:TNCs lead to glocalisation to try and reflect local cultures in their products – is glocalisation just a sophisticated form of cultural imperialism?Slide8

Global Media

Influence:Disney films, Christmas and Halloween in movies, the BBC maintaining a sense of ‘Britishness’Evaluation:Films and programmes can offer a window into other cultures. However, films are often re-filmed to suit a different audience. i.e. the inbetweenersOther countries have managed to get their culture furthered through news and cartoonsSlide9

Migration and Tourism

Influence:Migration brings cultural changes. Europeans took their culture in the past. Now other cultures are being brought to European countries.Evaluation:Migrants affect host regions. Do you think cultural changes are superficial or more meaningfulSlide10

Exam Practice – using notes

Explain cultural diffusion and its causes (4)ALL should mention how TNCs, Media and Migrants cause cultural diffusionMOST should mention how cultural diffusion is a long standing process and use examplesSOME should discuss cultural diffusion through soft power and refer to phenomena such as ‘globish’Slide11

The Costs of Cultural Erosion

The global culture is becoming largely westernised, known as hyperglobalisationSome see this as a negative (pessimistic hyperglobalisers)Some worry about the loss of global languages to EnglishThey worry that the main focus in economic globalisation and enforced capitalismOthers see this as a positive (optimistic hyperglobalisers

)

The western/global culture prizes democracy, reduced discrimination and increased freedomSlide12

Global Cultures - Case Studies

Changing diets in AsiaIndigenous people of Amazonia and Papa New GuineaGlobal ParalympicsIn your pairs, pick one case study to read each. You have 5mins quiet reading time. Then share what you have learnt with your partner. Be ready to feedback to the class to make notesSlide13

Changing diets in Asia - COST

Traditional Asian food was low meat and high vegEmergence of western culture has led to more meat in dietThis has physical impacts as obesity from fast food arisesThis has environmental impacts with methane gas release and deforestation (to grow crops to feed cattle)Led to loss of traditional foods at Chinese weddings (Shark Fins)Meat demand has risen above 1,000 metric tonnes in 2010Slide14

Changing cultures in Amazonia Tribes - COST

People in Amazonia region have started wearing more westernised clothing (ie. T-Shirts)Rural – urban migration is occurringThey leave behind traditional homesThis has led to an increased neglect of their eco-systems as they value education and health more now e.g they hunt for endangered species to eat or sell (economic changes)Slide15

Paralympic culture - BENEFIT

The media has changed the views of disabled people through broadcasting the Paralympics.Disabled people now viewed as ‘super humans’ and are no longer outcast. In the past, the USA had sterilisation programmes against disabled people which has now been withdrawn due to culture of ‘superhumans’. 1982-92 was the decade of disabled people :) Slide16
