ABSTRACT: This
article explores the impact of global culture on our lifestyle. Globalisation
is inevitable and global culture is the commodification of culture and practice
of any locality in the world. The study finds that print, electronic, online
and social media promote global culture. The people are comfortable with the
consequences of global culture as it happens slowly and convincingly.
International institutions like UNESCO and other organisations, tourism,
migration, trade and international processes have a great impact and influence
on global culture. These organisations want to protect local culture and to
work on cultural sovereignty. Though there are some negative impacts of global
culture on our lifestyle, global culture also contains many ingredients of
positive development, modernity and civilisation. Most of the data is mainly
collected from secondary sources like journal articles, official records, media
reports, books etc. As media personnel, some in-depth observations are used as
a primary source.
