In the given question, a statement of Assertion is followed by a statement of Reason. Mark the correct answer.
Assertion: McDonaldisation of the world will be good for poor countries.
Reason: It will lead to the shrinking of the rich cultural heritage of not just the poor countries but the entire globe.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
Thus, the culture of the politically and economically dominant society leaves its imprint on a less powerful society, and the world begins to look more like the dominant power wishes it to be. Those who make this argument often draw attention to the ‘McDonaldisation’ of the world, with cultures seeking to buy into the dominant American dream. This is dangerous not only for poor countries but for the whole of humanity, for it leads to the shrinking of the rich cultural heritage of the entire globe.
