Has modernisation lead to the demolition of cultural values?

Yes, all generations of human societies go through changes in cultural values. Cultural values evolve as societies change. Modernization is only one of many causes. Even the most primitive early societies were changed by things as simple as droughts, intermarriage, or new tribes encroaching. The earliest explorers and traders brought about great changes where ever they interacted with different people. Wars have always created big changes in cultural values. Every new interaction with people outside of our own culture brings about new ways to see things and we individually adjust our cultural values. Modernization has a more profound impact on the social values of people who are suddenly thrust into modernization than those who have lived where the modernization has evolved.

What is the difference between a corperation and small business?

Both a small business and corporation are companies that employ people and operate as businesses. A corporation is often considered to be a large business but there is no standard definition when a business is 'small', 'medium' or 'large'. Typical definitions for small, medium and large businesses are done by the number of employees 1-100: Small 100-1000: Medium 1000+ : Large Businesses with less than 10 people are sometimes called 'micro' businesses or 'SoHo' businesses ('Small Office-Home Office') Corporations often consist of a group of companies, rather than just a single company, so that is an alternative distinction. Companies can grow into corporations but the process can reverse when corporations become too large and start to decline (see linked reference)
