Globalised Values


People have culture shock when they arrive to other countries. Currently, values and morals are getting similar to other cultures, and that is becoming easier to immigrate because of a reduction in culture shock. People should recognize and respect the fact that different cultures have different values, and they have different ways of being expressed. “It is known that there are values like freedom, human rights, equity, and justice are universal values.” Blair (2009). The morals code over the world is to respect other people, and to not hurt other people. The most common globalized moral is that treat people like you want them to treat you. Young people expect other culture easily because they are still forming themselves, but old people over the age of 50 will not because they rise up to their culture and not expect other morals. It is believable that most countries have same values however, there are a little bit differences like in all Gulf countries women can drive cars, but in Saudi Arabia in is not allowed for women and if they did it they punish them. Saudi Arabia is known around the world as the only country where women are not allowed to drive. Women are allowed to own cars but not drive them. Although women can be arrested for driving in Saudi Arabia, there is no formal law that actually makes it illegal. InterNations CONECTING MINDS (2007). These values and morals are changing the world and it can be seen in social transformation, political system, and ecosystems. Thus the world is becoming to have the same morals and values.
