Question:

In the given question, a statement of Assertion is followed by a statement of Reason. Mark the correct answer:

Assertion: Globalisation leads to the rise of a uniform culture or what is called cultural homogenisation.
Reasoning: The rise of a uniform culture means the emergence of a global culture.

Options:

Both the assertion and reason are correct and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion

Both the assertion and reason are correct but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion

The assertion is incorrect but the reason is correct

The assertion is correct but the reason is incorrect

Correct Answer:

The assertion is correct but the reason is incorrect

Explanation:

The cultural effect of globalisation leads to the fear that this process poses a threat to cultures in the world. It does so, because globalisation leads to the rise of a uniform culture or what is called cultural homogenisation. The rise of a uniform culture is not the emergence of a global culture. What we have in the name of a global culture is the imposition of Western culture on the rest of the world.
