<u>Functionalism:</u>
This is one of the important sociological perspective and is also known as consensus theory.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Functionalist perspective postulates that every aspect of society is responsible for its stability and proper functioning as each aspect or part of it is interdependent on other. Some of the sociologists who propagated this perspective were Emile Durkheim, Robert Merton and Talcott Parsons.
One example of functionalism is that government offers education to children of the country so that tomorrow that can support their near and dear ones and the funds which are used by government for providing education is the money of citizens only collected through taxes. So, here citizens and government are interdependent on each other.
In this case, "ground zero" means the starting point for an activity (like the American Civil Rights Movement). Georgia and Alabama were considered the starting points for this movement due to events such as the Montgomery Bus Boycott (after Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat to a white man) and the campaign to end segregation in Albany, Georgia. These events began the domino effect for the Civil Rights Movement, inspiring other protests and demonstrations to occur across the country.

Explanation:
Globalization is a huge danger to local cultures because it can rob them of their identify by imposing a fit-for-all culture known all over the world.
Local cultures prosper because they are local and unique, far away from the global influence. Globalization brings people together but it also makes them all look alike because they are exposed to the same influences, in culture, business or politics. Some local tradition may become too old fashioned for many to be still followed and they may disappear, especially if the young people reject them because they don't seem attractive any longer. To prevent local culture, some rituals have to be maintained and pass over to the next generation, globalization jeopardizes this process and some local cultures may become extinct in the end.
