Psychological Interpretation of the Process of Globalization

Abstract

The psychological interpretation of globalization means how globalization impacts one’ s identity. The term identity is closely connected to culture. The culture is what we eat, wear, what is our language? what are our traditions? and what we are is also determined by culture. Homogenizing and Heterogenizing impact of globalization has resulted in contradictions in local and global identity in today’s globalized world. So, the result is proliferation of indigenous cultures in the firm of religious fundamentalism and religious protests.
