What is considered one of the greatest threats of folk culture around the world?

One of the greatest threats to folk culture around the world is globalization, which often leads to the homogenization of cultures. As global media and consumerism spread, local traditions, languages, and practices can be overshadowed by dominant cultures, particularly Western influences. This erosion of unique cultural identities diminishes the diversity of human expression and heritage. Additionally, urbanization and migration can displace traditional communities, further endangering their cultural practices.
