I believe that globalization has had both a positive and a negative impact on cultural diversity. The positive side is that many different cultures were introduced to groups of people who have never seen them before or even heard of them. This introduction of different cultures helped introduce many religions, languages, and customs. I believe the mixing and meeting of new people with different backgrounds is very healthy. However, the negative impact is that it has reduced the individual richness and culture of each ethnic group. With the mixing of cultures, it is inevitable that some specific groups of people will lose a part of their culture or have to give it up to meet societal standards.
