Westernization has impact on every aspect of your life, be the way we dress, the way we talk or the way we dream of our life to be. Westernization helped people to become self-independent, helped in empowering the women in India and also made people aware of the unscientific beliefs or superstitions and made them to think scientific. Moreover it provided strength to many people to follow their dreams. But beside all these, it also created the society where no one cares for each other and broke down the tradition of joint family. Now-a-days people hardly know who their neighbours are. Moreover different societies have adopted it differently, so there arises the friction between the societies. The same can be seen with the youths also. Youths by following western culture feels that they are class apart than the normal Indians. Many take pride in western culture without knowing what their own culture is and why he is following. In addition to it, they are sharp increase in the drug intake by youth. We can also see a sharp decrease in respect for elders. It is also among the main reason for increasing number of divorce cases in India.…

It will refer to theories of post-colonialism and cultural hegemony.…
"India is the cradle of human race, the birthplace of human speech, the mother of history, the grandmother of legend, and the great grandmother of tradition. Our most valuable and most astrictive materials in the history of man are treasured up in India only! - Mark Twain” This quote is an exemplary example of Indian history that only scratches the surface of the actual history of India. India’s culture is an amalgamation of its own states and “subcultures.” Hierarchy, family status, and social status are an important part of their culture.…
3. The greed towards the materialistic world of amassing wealth and to say to the world that I am great. This has become more pronounced in the world of sports in India.

There is no reason to believe that there are fundamental differences between the East and the West. Human beings are everywhere human and hold the same deepest values. The differences which are, no doubt, significant, are related to external, temporary social conditions and are alterable with them. East and West are relative terms. They are geographical expressions and not cultural types. The differences among countries like China, Japan and India are quite as significant as those among European or American countries. Specific cultural patterns with distinctive beliefs and habits developed in different regions in relative isolation from one another. There were periods when China and India were pre-eminent in cultural affairs, others when Western nations became dominant. For the last four centuries Western nations aided by scientific development have dominated the East. The world has now reached a state of inter-communication. All societies are fast becoming industrialized and new sets of values are springing up. We are called upon to participate in the painful birth of a new civilization. If we are to live together in peace we must develop international cooperation and understanding.…
Westernization has been a deleterious effect of cultural diversity throughout the world. The new generation disregard the whole concept of rich culture. Paul Harrison points out "Young people don't like operas, they are too old fashioned". He goes on to quote a young man remark saying "We would prefer to see a high-quality Western variety show, something like that", this is the consequence of permissive parenting. Permissive Parenting is low on positive structure and direction. (When it comes to handling your hard-to-handle child, are you an authoritative, authoritarian or permissive parent?, 2000). The younger generation is being brought up by indulgent parents into a more modern world that is exposed to different cultures. Permissive Parenting does not grow the child with strict values; there is no direction to where the child is heading and therefore adapts to what he/she likes or what is trending. Parents are influential bearers and if there is no guidance the child will stray away to what he/she feels is familiar or…
Youth is the spring of life. It is the age of discovery and dreams. They have the power to transform the nation into a better place. They also have the ability to lead their fellow citizens into the right direction. Youths are fighters. It has rightly said by Herbert Hoover, “Older men declare war. But it is youth that must fight and die.” They fight for an identity in society, equality, unemployment, exploitation, poverty and other problems which the world faces today. All of them hopes for a world full of opportunities, so great minds can conquer them and become better individuals. They need good morals and values to handle conflicts in a positive way.…
Mounting western culture degrading India on the whole. Have you ever seen the pictures of Jatindranath Mukerjee or Chandrasekhar Azad or Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose? Apart from being leading revolutionaries of the Indian freedom struggle, these three great personalities had something more in common. Almost in each picture you will find each of them clad in perfect Indian attire or dhoti-kurta. Do you find the same dress among Indians still? Unfortunately, it is becoming almost extinct more and more and the day is not far when its best position will be in the museum of any Indian metropolis. What inference can you draw from this lamentable specimen? Western influence is rising in the Indian society by leaps and bounds and its intensity is rising with the passing of each year almost. There is hardly any doubt that the entire course is moving contrary to the dreams of the founding fathers of independent India in August 15, 1947.…
