Recent years, the word diversity is one of the key words. Increasing diversity has an aspect of being a trigger that a society to develop as the different values people encounter comes in. When people has the same opinion in a society, the orientation of a society tend to be fixed in a way. However, if we accept different values from outside, that can be a chance to go beyond the existing framework.
We tend to focus on diversities from outside of a community. Diversities that I define as different values are absorbed into a society. That is happening worldwide. But as the globalization progresses, the world becomes more homogenous. That is because uniqueness of culture and whatsoever in limited area becomes commonsense after it goes across borders.
It ends up with convergence of diversity in global level — that is to say that different values existed all over the world are shared and becomes not surprising ideas to human beings. I suggest that the internal diversification is necessary for further development as I wrote in a previous article titled “Internal diversification in a society — education encouraging internal diversity“.
