social convergence

Social convergence refers to the process by which different individuals or groups gradually adopt similar behaviors, values, or norms over time, leading to increased homogeneity within a society. This often occurs through interactions, shared experiences, or influences such as media and education. As diverse groups influence each other, their differences diminish, resulting in greater societal cohesion. Social convergence can promote understanding and cooperation, but it may also reduce diversity if excessive. Overall, it’s a dynamic process shaping social patterns and cultural integration across communities.
