It is inevitable that traditional cultures will be lost as technology develops. Technology and traditional cultures are incompatible. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this view?

It has always been a dichotomy in opinion whether conventional environments can survive

along side

side by side

alongside

technological advances.

This

essay agrees with the point of view that it is impossible to save local cultures in the era of technological boom.

This

essay will

first

look into how modern developments in the field of

technolody

the practical application of science to commerce or industry

technology

lead to unification and after that cover how conventional cultures lose their isolated status under the influence of technological growth.

First

of all, nowadays developments in technological world lead to unification of cultures,

socities

an extended social group having a distinctive cultural and economic organization

societies

and social layers. The advances in

this

field bring people to the same page of equal, unified environment with similar rules and rituals, and,

therefore

, kill traditions and cultural diversity.

For example

, more and more people choose to have simple beach weddings due their trendy status in mass media

such

as Facebook and Instagram, and fewer

newly-weds

someone recently married

newlyweds

opt for traditional family ceremonies,

thus

, losing cultural

flavor

the general atmosphere of a place or situation and the effect that it has on people

flavour

and diversity.

Secondly

, with the rapid and aggressive development of the World Wide Web and social media it is getting more and more difficult to find any place on

this

planet that stays isolated and functions in a strictly controlled environment.

Such

lack of isolation leads to the loss of interest in local culture, traditions, and values. If we take Amish people as an example, it is important to say that, even with their strict rules of living, more and more young Amish people choose to quit their lifestyle and go live in big cities in modern societies, because the influence of the modern world is stronger than ever before. To sum up,

this

essay strongly agrees that modern world advances in the field of technology and conventional cultures are not going to survive together because

such

development leads to globalization and loss of isolation.
