The Impact of Globalization on Indigenous Artisans

FAQ About The Impact of Globalization on Indigenous Artisans

Is there a risk of cultural appropriation through globalization?

Cultural appropriation is indeed a significant risk in the context of globalization. As indigenous crafts become more accessible and popular globally, elements of these cultures may be taken and used out of context or without proper credit and compensation. This can lead to exploitation and misrepresentation of indigenous cultures. Respectful engagement and awareness are essential to preventing cultural appropriation.
