Title

A Sociological Study of the impact of globalization on the decrease of language diversity

Pages

  57-68

Abstract

 One of the main issues that threaten the life of languages is economic, social and political processes that fits in globalization concept. Today, there are 5000 to 7000 languages all over the world, but the linguists predict that 90% of these languages will extinct and be forgotten in the next century. Besides some positive features of globalization, there are some negative aspects such as increasing rates of poverty and inequality and reducing rate of cultural and linguistic diversity. Using the documentary method and collecting data, the aim of this study is to assess this point that, what is the globalization? What are its aspects? How does it lead to the loss of local languages and finally extinction of linguistic diversity? These views can be analyzed in the light of global culture and imperialism. These theories refer to this point that in the globalization of production and the economy, meanings, concepts, fashion and values will be sent to local communities along with goods. Therefore, the local people prefer the universal English language to their local language and teach it to their children because they do want to reach the civilization level. This will lead to weakness and eventually the death of the local language. Now, the critics of globalization and the linguists like Sachs believe that, assimilation is going to be replaced with understanding the diversity of culture and language.
