Abstract

In the era of globalization, the flow of information and culture across countries has influenced language practices and the preservation of local culture in Indonesia. These changes bring opportunities for strengthening the Indonesian language in the global arena as well as challenges for the preservation of regional languages and cultural identity. This study aims to examine the influence of globalization on Indonesian language learning and the preservation of local culture through a literature review. The research method uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a systematic review of seven scientific articles from the period 2021–2025. The data were analyzed to identify patterns of findings, relationships between variables, and proposed educational strategies. The researchers synthesized the results by considering linguistic, cultural, and language education policy aspects. The analysis steps included literature selection, thematic data extraction, and interpretation of results based on sociolinguistic, cultural anthropology, and ethnopedagogy perspectives. The results of the study show that globalization has a significant effect on shifts in the use of Indonesian and regional languages, as well as the transformation of cultural values among the younger generation. Globalization not only causes cultural erosion, but also opens up opportunities for revitalization through the use of digital technology. The main conclusion of this study is the need for adaptive language education based on local wisdom so that Indonesian can serve as a bridge between global and local values. The contribution of this study lies in the development of a conceptual model for learning Indonesian that is responsive to globalization while supporting the preservation of national language and culture.
