The rise of the Internet and social networks has had a profound effect on globalization. It has provided a platform for the dissemination of information, making it accessible to a large part of the world's population. Smartphones have further increased the penetration of technology, especially in the developing world. This paper will discuss the role of social networks in globalization and how they have impacted communication culture. Over the centuries, new media have helped to unite the world.
Social networks have allowed people to interact with family and friends who live far away, as well as providing a forum for cultural exchange. People learn other people's cultures as they share theirs, which is an important vehicle for economic development. Just as globalization facilitates social networks, social networks facilitate intercultural interaction. Social networks are also very effective in spreading information quickly to a wide audience. With the spread of technology available around the world, social networks are becoming more and more abundant.
This creates global connections, allowing countries to express their new and old concerns to everyone. Modern developments in some countries are a source of disruption due to the new accessibility to information. Politicians have used social networks to strengthen and reinforce the political beliefs of their followers and followers. Social networks themselves are based on weak links because the information is not concrete, therefore, activism on social networks is based on weak links. To maximize the benefits of social networks globally, it is essential to participate in workshops on social networks, as well as to attend seminars that offer training on security, networking strategies and how to increase visibility worldwide. Social media weaknesses are low-risk, but using social media for activism isn't always low-risk.
Companies that are interested in using social media to increase their business operations have been successful. However, some believe that social networks cannot generate revolutionary change like traditional activism. The main base of operations is still located in the country of origin, communication with operations in foreign countries is maintained through many types of media, including social networks. Social networks have also been accused of encouraging moral decay because children can easily access pornographic sites and other uncensored materials and can try to imitate what they see. In general, social networks are an inevitable force that is currently being used for activism and will undoubtedly be used in greater and better ways in the future. The connectivity achieved by the globalization of social networks has become a channel for the dissemination of information.
Despite the positive impact that social networks have had in the area of politics to keep the population informed, they have also been an effective tool used to end dictatorial regimes.
