Summary
In the future, only nations with the newest technology will experience economic prosperity. The people in these nations will be bombarded with images showing how people in other nations live. This will cause people in prosperous nations to question their own traditions, which will lead to a dissolution of those traditions.
Strongly Supported Conclusions
Hence, the stability of a nation’s cultural identity will likely decrease if that nation is economically prosperous.
A
depend on a just distribution of electronic technology among all nations
A just or equitable distribution of technology plays no role in our causal chain of events. We only know that a nation generally possessing the latest technology will set off the causal chain of events.
B
decrease if that nation comes to have a high level of economic wealth
A nation having a high level of economic wealth results in a causal chain of events leading to dissolution of that nation’s customs and traditions.
C
be ensured by laws that protect the customs and traditions of that culture
We don’t know if laws will be enacted to protect the traditions of these nations.
D
be threatened only if the people of that culture fail to acquire the latest technical skills
We don’t know whether there’s only one way in which a nation’s cultural identity is threatened. We know possessing the latest technology is one way, but there could be various other ways as well.
E
be best maintained by ensuring gradual assimilation of new technical knowledge and skills
We don’t know if this is the best way to maintain a nation’s cultural identity. We also don’t know whether gradual introduction of technology will lessen its effects.
