Answer:
Friedman's prediction turned out to be wrong, in part because he failed to recognize that globalization is also accompanied by multiculturalism.
Explanation:
Globalization does not necessarily lead to cultural loss and it is not a cure for other cultural differences and differences in world view. The acceptance of some elements of Western consumer culture as represented by McDonald's does not mean that there still do not exist other profound differences or that the countries will automatically overcome their differences. McDonald's can be accepted by the local culture but it is adopted into the local city or town in different ways that do not necessarily supplant other local businesses and the local lifestyles.
<span>Confucianism is an ethical and philosophical system that is normally considered one of the world religions. It originated in China but has spread to Korea, Taiwan and Vietnam. Most people who adhere to the teachings of Confucius follow Chinese traditional religion, which is a blending of Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism, and traditional local practices and beliefs.
Confucianism is more of a belief system about social order than it is one about God, the existence of god. There is piety towards god but god itself is not set in stone. </span>
