GLOBALIZATION AND MEDIA
The rapid advancement of technology, particularly in ICT,
over the last two decades has altered many previous concepts and
intellectual frameworks. These advancements provide humanity with
more opportunities and incredible abilities to explore and expert
the world. If we want to be optimistic, we should say that
humankind empowered with new technologies is freer and more
powerful than a human 50 years ago, and that these technologies
have enabled him or her to overcome many obstacles on his or her
path to progress. The internet and the new generation of media
based on the internet are two prominent examples of technology
that bring people closer together and more accessible than in the
past, and it is similar to living in a global village.
Globalizations is no longer a new issue, and anyone can find
a wealth of information on the subject in academic journals or
public spheres such as newspapers and media. Indeed, the growth
and pervasiveness of the media prepare countries and local
nations to receive global content and information, thereby
speeding up the globalization process.
This paper attempts to investigate the relationships between
media and globalization and to answer the question, "How does
globalization occur from a media perspective?"
What good comes from globalization snd media?
To believe that the role of the media in the globalization
process is crucial. And, in my opinion, the media is a part of
the globalization process; it is the "pen" of the globalization
process, because it shares everything that the globalization
process dictates. The Internet, which connects all places in the
world, plays an important role in the globalization process. The
Internet is referred to as the "World Wide Web." So, when we talk
about the globalization process, we should remember that the
developed countries already globalize a lot. However, some
countries do not globalize sufficiently. Others may argue that
ideas flow in multiple directions, resulting in less
homogenization and more diversification of ideas and lifestyles.
Even these broad models obscure the true breadth and complexity
of media's global reach. If we are to discuss the role of the
media in the globalization process, we must first define the
media. As a matter of fact, we believe that the media plays an
important role in hastening globalization. As a result, global
media contains many specific details that positively offer
knowledge of perceptions of various cultures, religions,
economics, and beliefs to our human lives, which completely lead
globalization powerfully.
How do we plan to answer the research questions?
To be certain of answering the research question, we must
first research the topic in order to fully understand the issue
or the main idea of the question, and then conclude all of the
websites that are reliable and credible, noting down all of the
research we've found that is relevant to the topic.
A research design is a strategy for answering our research
question. The research design refers to the overall strategy you
choose to integrate the various components of the study in a
coherent and logical manner, ensuring you will effectively
address the research problem; it serves as the blueprint for data
collection, measurement, and analysis.
