The conflict was about the head scarf and what it symbolizes. Over the years, it has been manipulated and is considered a form of oppression to westerners. It's an internal conflict because it is mostly between women and whether or not they should wear it to sacrifice their independence. Globalization creates conflict because of diversity. There are opposing beliefs and ideas, creating conflict over just about everything. Western culture isn't changing; people are just assimilating into it, rather than creating more culture. Thus, globalization is only flowing in one direction. The benefit related in this process is role models. Looking at strong women to see what it really means to be ea woman and to be independent is important and is shown throughout our culture.
