Chapter Focus: To what extent should we respond to the opportunities that globalization provides for identity?

Urbanization, or the growth of cities, is a phenomenon that began more than 200 years ago, when people began moving from economically depressed rural areas to cities where factories needed labourers. Since then, cities around the world have become important centres of business, industry, technology, development, and cultural exchange. More people now live in large cities, or metropolises, than ever before.

One of the main reasons for the explosion in urban populations is migration, the movement of people from one place to another. Migrant populations help cities flourish on both a social level and an economic level. Their unique values and identities help a city’s population become more diverse and cosmopolitan. Their skills, knowledge, and labour make valuable contributions to business and industry. In return, urban centres provide migrants with settlement services, such as language classes and assistance with housing and employment. This is only true, however, if cities are willing to accommodate and integrate new residents

A CCOMMODATION Local governments recognize the opportunity to help new residents integrate by accommodating their specific, immediate needs. For example, since 1980, in Halifax, Nova Scotia, the Metropolitan Immigrant Settlement Association (MISA) has provided the following services to new Canadians:

I NTEGRATION As a result of globalization, integration can create opportunities both for a society and for newcomers to that society. Some social scientists argue that as migration increases, societies are becoming more aware of the opportunities that can be created by integrating diverse peoples. Many newcomers leave the countries of their birth because they wish to experience a different way of life, but few emigrate because they want to leave behind their cultural identity. A pluralistic society allows people to expand their identities while retaining heritage.

A CCULTURATION Immigration is one factor in the increase of cross- cultural influence among different groups as a result of globalization. This exposure can influence and sometimes even transform groups. People may adopt or adapt to certain features of other groups because they think it will help them thrive in a changing society. The process of changing as a result of contact with other groups is called acculturation.

A CCULTURATION Acculturation occurs when people adapt to a new culture at the speed and to the extent they wish. In some cases, the process of acculturation may eventually lead to voluntary assimilation. Read Booklet (pages 96, 97, 98) and understand how both of these case studies relate to acculturation and integration.

A CCULTURATION IN THE A NDES : A DJUSTING TO A G LOBAL E CONOMY As you saw in the Voices feature on Susan Aglukark, acculturation does not happen only to immigrants. Those whose ancestors have lived in one location for generations may choose to acculturate to new ways of life brought to the area from elsewhere. Some Indigenous peoples acculturate to global business and tourism trends in order to prosper economically in a globalizing world.

CO - OPERATIVES Co-operatives are businesses owned jointly by their members, who share the profits equally. In less developed countries, co-operatives are most often run by women in an effort to boost their families’ incomes. The co-operatives allow women to pool their skills and work together to succeed. Continue reading (pages 98, 99, 100, 101) On a separate piece of paper, answer question 1 & 2 on page 98, the last question on page 99 and question 1& 2 on page 100 – due at the end of class!

R ESPONSES TO O PPORTUNITIES In this section, you will have a chance to look at groups who are taking the opportunity to revitalize their cultures and affirm their identities in a global context

R ESPONSES TO O PPORTUNITIES Globalization has increased our access to information and images from around the world. Many groups that have been challenged by globalization have found ways to take advantage of it. They use modern technologies and global markets to assert their place as a unique group in a diverse society. They experience cultural revitalization— an opportunity to celebrate identity.

C ULTURAL R EVITALIZATION – I NUIT

Traditionally, the Inuit use an oral culture to carry legends into the future. Now they also use modern technologies like film and video to communicate these legends to a worldwide audience.

A FFIRMATION OF I DENTITY IN A G LOBALIZING W ORLD Founded in 1970, La Francophonie is “a cultural and linguistic community of more than 175 million people who use French to varying degrees in their daily lives.” It is also an “institutional community of 63 states and governments” that promotes closer ties among French-speaking countries by encouraging co- operation in education, culture, and technology.

LA FRANCOPHONIE La Francophonie works in different ways to promote French language, culture, and a sense of community around the world: 1. Economics – Many of the member countries are from the less developed world, countries such as Canada and France can help raise living standards in countries such as Haiti and Vietnam. 2. Language Preservation - One of La Francophonie’s major concerns is how to preserve the use of the French language in a world that is increasingly dominated by English. Lobbying by La Francophonie led to the decision to make all announcements in both French and English at the Olympic Games. 3. Telecommunications - In 1983, La Francophonie created TV5
