How Does American Culture Affect Australian Culture

The national spread of American media including; TV, film and music has been the cornerstone of Americanisation in Australia since 1945, the end of world war two. 'Britain's Farm' and 'America's Junior Partner': that is what Australia was labelled as, around the end World War II. Prior to WWII it is argued Australia

In the 1970s, many international countries and continents such as Britain, America, Europe and Asia influenced Australia. Many categories in Australian culture were influences, for example, entertainment, music and sport. During the seventies, Australia changed and modified its culture.

American culture is overriding the culture of our nation and will continue to as American aspects keep becoming larger within Australia. Over the past years Australia’s identity is being merged with America, as aspects like American foods/ brands, TV/film, trends and slang are becoming extremely popular and influencing Australian citizens. Through these common American aspects our Australian culture as what it is stereotyped to be fading dramatically.

In conclusion, Greece and Denmark varied greatly in their political institutions and gender equality. Greece went through a number of rock regime changes while Denmark’s political transitions were more linear and stable. As a result, this greatly affected the politics surrounding their country. Greece formed their state heavily around the ideologies of the EU. They never really established their own political interest which has caused much miss-trust and political instability in the country. Furthermore, their political parties are more receptive to corruption and scandal as we have seen on numerous occasions in Greece. On the other hand, Denmark has done wonderful job in having political institutions that actually supply their citizens with

From Japan to Australia to the countless places on this Earth, we have all heard and learned about the richest, biggest, most powerful, and also the poorest countries in school, but there are many not as well-known countries that many of us may not know about. This sparked my interest to look into some countries that we have heard about but never took the time to learn about them. One country that got my attention was Norway. We all know that Norway is the home of the Disney ice queen Elsa and her adventurous sister Anna, but Norway has much more to offer then catchy songs and flashy magic. Norway has had its up and downs through its early history, Norway if filled with cultures, and compared to America living in Norway is completely different.

It is true that you can find some similarities between the countries of China and Norway, even so, these two nations have a lot of differences. To start, I will talk about each country’s physical shape. When you look at the world’s fourth largest country in China, you’ll notice that part of the Himalayas spreads through China, making it home to many mountains. This can be compared to Norway’s Scandinavian Mountains – which stands at 2,469 meters tall. Even though the two nations are similar in this way, Norway has physical landforms that aren’t common in China. These landforms are called Fjords. A fjord is “a long, narrow, deep inlet of the sea between high cliffs.” Norway has 1,190 fjords in total, making its physical landform stand out from China’s significantly.

Good Morning fellow delegates; I am honoured to be here today to provide you with my opinion on if Australia is becoming too Americanised.

There is no doubt to reveals the fact that globalization has benefited more than developing countries. Globalization is misused or over used. The difference between rich and poor continued from the beginning of time. Nearly thousand years ago people use barter system to fill the gap between demands and supply. Due to lack of technology and lack of communication system most people sell and buy products within the boundary of a country but today recent era is a totally different era. Global currency, global language and advance technology provide a platform to stay connected all over the world.

I agree with the lecture because we humans as curious creatures, always need some kind of explanation to the origin of the universe. Early humans didn’t have the correct answers of the universe, they used what they had at the time and what made sense to them as explanations. When the universe was only 10,000 years old, early humans used myths and stories to explain cosmos and creation, because that was all they had. They praised the gods and goddesses for the natural resources they had to live on. As time went on, (40,000 years ago) Australian Abnormal Culture cosmos evolved into art and music, expressing their connection with animals, landscape, and the sky; believing what little they knew about how the universe originated. As civilization

The experience of Aboriginal Australians since European settlement is replete with suppression of their cultural practices and knowledge by the dominant cultural groups in Australia. In the first century of settlement, these included land dispossession by force, theft of women, slavery and war, introduced diseases, and the missionary zeal for Aboriginal people to embrace Western religion and reject their own spiritual beliefs such as the dreaming. Moreover, settlement brought with it the assertion of British sovereignty and law, which effectively displaced indigenous customary law in the 20th century, further intervention into Aboriginal culture and life was evidenced in the Government’s White Australia Policy and an explicit strategy of indigenous
