Introduction

A visual masterpiece and a work of art. Animations are there starting from television to an advertisement. Dr. Binish Desai who is an entrepreneur famous for waste recycling said in an interview that he was a huge fan of Dexter’s laboratory and other animated shows. Today he is famous for making bricks from masks. Isn’t this interesting? An animated show inspired an entrepreneur to make bricks from masks.

In India, cartoons were considered as kids’ entertainment. Especially after the launching of cartoons in the Doordarshan channel and after launching of the cartoon network channel. Tom and Jerry’s show portrayed many things in a satirical manner like using guns and gun powders to capture a mouse often we can see Tom using these things. Jerry too can be seen confronting Tom when he is pointing a gun towards him.

This show depicted many things which were popular in that era like people flocking to cities from a village in search of employment. In one episode they depicted guillotine where Tom, Jerry and Nibbles were shown as French. They were even criticized for portraying racial stereotypes, Joseph Barbera stated that they were just showing what was in the society at that time. We can see Tom and Jerry in different forms, ever noticed? Well, it’s because Tom and Jerry’s cartoons were launched by many people and all drew differently like Chuck Jones.

Japanese Cartoons

Comics too played an important role in animation, many Japanese cartoons were manga comics like Doraemon, Ninja Hattori, Kiteretsu, Perman. Doraemon gained popularity in India after the launching of the Hungama channel. Though the Animax channel aired many anime(s) still it couldn’t gain popularity like Hungama. Japanese cartoon drawings were very different from that of American cartoons like Mickey Mouse and Looney Toons. Japanese cartoons also depicted what was there in the society and even portrayed many things in an interesting manner like science, history, geography, etc. Students getting failing in exams and being scared of telling it to their parents was portrayed humorously like Nobita in Doraemon. Japan created its genre of animation called anime, anime is very popular today because of its interesting content.

Well, many cartoons from Japan are known for obscenity and this was heavily criticized by parents.

Japanese cartoons are very interesting and will make science fun. Well thanks to the Indian television industry where television serials portray strange content, people say that Japanese cartoons were a slap for soap operas. Well let’s say a serial’s name ‘Daal Mein Kuch kaala Nahi hein’ and it portrays vague plots and worst contents. I mean what’s wrong if a kid is learning science in animated serials. Japanese cartoons declined in India due to the soap opera mafia.

American Animation

Animation depicted cultures like American culture were depicted like “The Gold Rush” were depicted in cartoons like “The Looney Tunes Show”. Baby looney tunes targeted children, this cartoon was used to teach children good habits and good manners. Japanese animations depicted Japanese culture and they played a key role in promoting their culture among the children. The world war was shown in many American cartoons and Japanese cartoons. In Doraemon, there were a few episodes where Mr. Nobi struggling in his childhood were mentioned at the time of war and the aftermath of the world war was also shown.

Squirrel and Hedgehog, a North Korean animated series were used to increase patriotism among the children of North Korea. Many characters in this cartoon are said to have portrayed Japanese, US, Russian, North Korean and Chinese.

Animations in India

Indian animated series Chhota Bheem became very popular in the Indian subcontinent. Thanks to Mr. Rajiv Chilaka (Founder of Green Gold Animation) who created this cartoon. Much before Chhota Bheem for cartoon Network Green Gold created animated series based on the life of Lord Krishna which became a hit in India. The Legend of Prince Rama was an animated movie created by Yugo Sako which was released in 1992, much fake news was spread that Mr. Yugo Sako was creating a new Ramayana and the film faced many issues. This was one of the best-animated movies based on the epic Ramayana.

Animation is still ailing in India! People consider animations as a Kid’s entertainment. Many theoretical releases of Indian animated series bombed at the box office. Animations are there starting in classrooms to big corporate industry. Animators should be encouraged in India and let the animations depict our culture and traditions in a good manner.

The problem with animations is due to their artificial lights causing harm to our eyes! Well, blue lights from machines cause big harm to our eyes. Animations initially started from hand-drawn drawings and now all animations are created using machines. The world is moving fast and technology is also rising and in the future, we may be introduced to an animated series that will not cause much harm.

21st Century Cultural Reset | Integration Of Cultures And Economies

Good ethics is conveyed to humans through cultural values. Cultural enrichment was constantly made to Indians. Indians are recognized for their wonderful manners and culture.

Author: Dr. Saumya Lal

Leadership is affected in various ways by cultural variables. Leaders view themselves as working in particular within the extended family system for family and extended family members rather than for immediate satisfaction of themselves. In culturally included civilizations, organizational leaders see how a man or woman should or should not comply in the working environment with peers and subordinates, depending on their family name, duties, and social construction. Societal constructs are based on age, gender, educational level, and area.

Increased integration of cultures and economies was met more quickly in the 21st century. National cultures need to be adapted and adjusted to global market trends in the global economy. With the emergence of new national cultures and leadership practices, national and corporate leaders can emerge from this vast range of multi-nation business practices in intercultural contexts. Since companies and cultures are integrated throughout the globe, many organizations’ leaders span cultural values, standards, practices, and leadership styles in ways they comprehend cultural effects on leadership.

It should be noted that cultural heritage is a vital cultural pillar and that these two sectors face shared difficulties. In our culture, education is essential for their lives, job search, and improved social plans. It is the culture that encourages people towards extending their pleasant behavior and coexisting and living in harmony with others. We have inherited the spirit of scientific thought from our ancestors. The information that we have inherited essentially from our antecedents is the abstract knowledge or the core institution. This information has generated more contemporary civilization for us through the turning point or application of it in uses particular methods.

The progress of time and technology is replacing ancient traditions, customs, religiosity, and orthodox ideals with reasoning and scientific knowledge. The questioning element of our customs does not nevertheless constitute a very healthy move. There are still many old traditions that have been followed, only when we examine them closer. The relationship or interaction is lost or forgotten through time, leading to selective changes in the way we view religion and traditions as a whole and to adaptive modifications. Religion ought not to be a barrier but a component of cultural upliftment. They say, Father is the family’s head, and it’s nice to have supper for the entire family. That was a matter of the past. Now, our lives are governed by devices, individuals work flexibly, and cultural unity has become a question of social reconciliation. Joint families were a very important part of our culture earlier on. Our cultural values were interacted by older and younger generations and they perceived them and comprehended them. When this set-up was replaced by a nuclear family set-up incrementally, the transmission of cultural values took its place. Time for everyday work, the demand for independence, professional development, and the increasing relevance of social restructuring.

India has several challenges in society. Some have been addressed, others still require a platform. “Giving” has been part of our broader culture for some years. In addition, the ordinary person who gave charity to society in the form of need supplied money for the welfare of society and people for leaders, bodies, and their employees. Given in cultural textbooks is no longer a sophisticated phrase but rather a component of a greater contribution in today’s world. This ‘philanthropic’ makes NGOs famous and popular!! People don’t mean they’re not necessarily part of their culture. When an economic ground was formed in India, the backward classes and peer classes in society flowed the lowest, followed by the middle class and the high class. The cultural values have moved in the other direction and cultural importance has been considered by the upper class.

It is a different scenario now. We have a modern class that is supposed to sail high with modern waves but still has a touch of cultural origins. The ultra-modern classes are supposed to be removed from the cultural radar and live in a liberal society. People from the younger generation dismiss their cultural ties, far from seeing a method of generating money. The fivefold theory upon which this model is constructed is intriguing. The fundamental premise of labor is the splendor built up by their vision. The beauty of this splendor is appealing to many. The second premise is that distractions are excluded on the road to success and focus. The third principle illustrates the effectiveness and endurance of our activities. The fourth main topic is its social standing and its work well-being. Because of our well-being, the fifth principle inspires others. Religion is not the same as culture. To practice and propagate particular beliefs, religion sets out certain guidelines. On the other side, culture teaches a compassionate way to live. Without the perimeter of culture, no religious textbook will get far. Religion is the inner thing, and culture is like the prolonged perimeter of touch that allows religion to follow the correct route. For a long time, India has been and is rich in its value system, a site of cultural outpouring. But slowly, problems like corruption and other societal ills are flourishing as a result of the mentalities and the effort to pull people off their cultural roots.

Today in towns we have tiny families that live harmoniously. Today, it’s a requirement. We don’t see anywhere anymore huge, common family systems. Now, it’s a rare thing. This notion is not to forget people’s principles, customs, or traditions. You’re still following them. At home, festivals are still held. It must have been only through changing times and traditions that it is commemorated

Good ethics is conveyed to humans through cultural values. Cultural enrichment was constantly made to Indians. Indians are recognized for their wonderful manners and culture. Regardless of where we work or study, we should leave our bad features behind. It must not be forgotten that we have our cultural configurations and values. The human being in the 21st century is more susceptible to spiritual satisfaction in his society. He utilizes his culture to identify the appropriate pathways and to draw power from them. A person’s prosperity ladder should not be blocked by culture, it should change him of evil into good.
