Advantages And Disadvantages Of Traditional Culture

The disappearance of culture has taken toll not only in this era of globalization but also from way back of time. In some ways, traditional culture and modern culture are alike. Any culture is a system of learn and shared meanings. People learn and share things over the course of generation, and so we say they are a culture.
