101 Globalisation And Culture
This document discusses the impact of globalization on local cultures. It explores how the expansion of U.S. corporations and products abroad can influence local mores and traditions, using examples like McDonald's influencing eating habits in China. It also examines how the large size and wealth of the American market and the dominance of the English language have allowed U.S. cultural products to spread widely globally, with concerns that this could lead to the homogenization of world cultures. Some see such changes as threats to cultural diversity, while others view them as positive aspects of global integration.
