more modern and more suitable for current use”. Globalization is “the fact that different cultures and economic systems around the world are becoming connected and similar to each other due to the influence of large multinational corporations and improved communication.” What does this mean for our society? How will this affect our culture? There is no easy transformation towards modernization or globalization; The union of ideas, values, religions and beliefs, if not approached with an open mind and without prejudice, is met in the United States with resistance and intolerance. The idea is not to change your entire belief system or your values, but to find the common dominators and integrate them. With products sent to other countries for manufacturing and foreign companies investing in the United States, there is uproar over their own needs in an economy that was once a powerhouse for products, not just for their own company but for countries around the world. . New ideals, uniting families of different cultures, are leading the United States to new struggles for new beliefs, values and ways of life. The effect on the United States is one of struggle, the need to move to a new form of acceptance is challenged by the ideals of the past. According to Roald Robertson, there are “four fundamental elements: societies, the international system, individuals, humanity… a conduct of different forms of life”. Uniting many cultures in the mentality of one is predisposed to resistance and struggle; this is seen all over the world right now, with acts of religious violence, borders being opened to take the shape of another society, and forcing nations to open their minds to the acceptance of others
