Can European culture transfer its values to other cultural circles?
European culture has a long history of influencing and being influenced by other cultures, making it possible for its values to be transferred to other cultural circles. Through colonization, trade, and globalization, European values such as democracy, human rights, and individualism have spread to various parts of the world. However, the extent to which these values are adopted and integrated into other cultural circles can vary depending on factors such as historical context, local traditions, and societal norms. Ultimately, the transfer of European cultural values to other cultural circles is a complex and ongoing process that involves both adaptation and resistance.

Is cultural diversity a prerequisite for understanding one's own culture?
Cultural diversity can provide valuable perspectives and insights that can enhance one's understanding of their own culture. By interacting with people from different cultural backgrounds, individuals can gain a deeper appreciation for their own cultural norms, values, and traditions. Exposure to diverse cultures can also challenge assumptions and biases, leading to a more critical and nuanced understanding of one's own cultural identity. However, while cultural diversity can be beneficial in this regard, it is not necessarily a prerequisite for understanding one's own culture, as individuals can also develop a strong sense of cultural identity through introspection, education, and engagement with their own community.

Is cultural globalization a threat to the original culture of each country?
Cultural globalization can be seen as a threat to the original culture of each country in some ways. As global media and technology spread, there is a risk of homogenizing cultures and diluting the unique traditions and customs of each country. However, cultural globalization also provides an opportunity for the exchange and appreciation of diverse cultures, leading to a more interconnected and inclusive global society. It is important for countries to actively preserve and promote their original culture while also embracing the positive aspects of cultural globalization.
