 * 1.8 Globalization and Cultural Diversity**

__**Globalization and cultural diversity**__
 * Globalization** means the diminishing importance of geographical, political, economic an cultural boundaries. IT has played a major role in reducing these boundaries. For example, any dramatic event anywhere in the world can be broadcast anywhere in the world almost instantly by television or on the Internet. However, the new “global village” may lead to the extinction of minority languages.

Scenario 2. How we all can watch any movie without having to go to the movies or visit any country.

Scenario 3. How you can purchase and order items to your doorstep on the Internet.
