Choices about dress, food habit, life style and even the thoughts are almost same throughout the world, specially among the persons of young generations. Nobody perhaps like the traditional styles of their own country or culture.
Is it "made same" by different types of advertisements and many other tricks?
Is it a trap prepared by the corporates just for global business?
Is it for cultural aggregation?
What is your explanation?
A nice topic has been raised by you.
Earlier, the informations regarding the choices of food, fashion, style, culture, tourism, likes, dislikes of the people were not readily available to gather and access the trend and requirements of people of a particular region. But today, with the help of globalization, digitalization, shopping malls, social medias, online shopping agencies the informations are easily available to predict a particular trend of use of commodities, choices, likes and dislikes. These help corporate sectors to invade into the wardrobes. So, I think corporate truly decide the choices of people around the world and we are the victims (by our own wish and sometimes unknowingly) of this trap.
Thanks.
Negative nivellation is the behavioral consequence of the mass consumer society.
I agree with Shibabrata Pattanayak. Corporations decide about every decision of almost every person, but not all people. Many people prefer fashion, imposed trends and patterns - it is easy and convenient. Very few people are able to maintain their independence, they have own opinion also in the world of consumption.
In the business world, realism is the basis of the game. So if you want to be part of the game you have to abide by its terms, and this is the case of working in companies in general.
It is blind simulation, must we beginning with education, when our generations prepare for self-knowledge, independence and identification it lead to ends empty counterfeiting
Corporate sector is one of many ecological influences on humans who, within those influences, make their own choice among the available choices, in order to minimize negative consequences and maximize positive consequences of their choices. One of those theories of human behavior is rational choice theory.
There is a reality in what you say similarly there is a resistance
I agree with Aparna Sathya Murthy about corporate sector working on behavior modification actively and proactively.
Currently most of young people are very attached to the mode concerning their habits (clothing, food ..) without considering the undesirable effects of these things on their health!
It's very unfortunate
No... but still most decisions are guided by money so in a sense, I would say that in my opinion, the claim is almost true.
Yes, the media section of corporate sectors focusing on global business and trapping the buyers across the boundaries, across the borders to fly like flies.
The buyers classify on "nature" some believe in realism (purchase and judge), trendy (believe on others feedback), traditional (never convinced on new product), crazy (attracted with glamoring advertisement) etc. Partly, the trending products are good.
Yes, I agree. From my experience, younger generations are more receptive.

Yes, corporations have more influence in your lives than the government. For example one of the fast food industries decides what can kind of potatoes to grow (including specs on the dimensions and properties) and the farmers will have to abide by that or else lose doing business with this corporation. Some others create a need in people (especially poor people in developing countries) when there was none to begin with by illusions of advertising. Fashion shows in London, New York, Paris and Milan already decide what the fashion styles of clothing ought to be for the next year and corporations have huge investments in such charades. Small mom and pop businesses do not survive because they are taken over quickly by huge corporations
I disagree because many companies go out of business by becoming irrelevant.
As a matter of fact this is not always so. It depends upon many factors and some times the corporate s may miserably fail. I would say rather Customer 's choice govern most of the times.I agree with Dr Amir,too.
Dear Dr. Amir and Dr. Sheth,
There are competitions among companies of same area of business.
No company is ready to leave an inch of space to other.
The competitors get failure in the race are no other option than to leave the field.
But the efforts to trap the targeted customers remain unchanged, and the system continues.
The said phenomenon may be explained in that way.
Do you agree with that explanation?
