• Cultural Convergence
• Cultural Hybridity
Cultural Differentialism
• Cultural differences are fixed.
• Globalization may cause clash of civilizations
(e.g., West vs. Islam).
Cultural Convergence
• Globalization causes cultural sameness.
• Powerful cultures dominate (e.g., KPOP
influence in the Philippines).
Cultural Hybridity
• Globalization mixes cultures.
• Example: Chabacano language merging
Spanish and local dialects.
What is GLOCALIZATION?
• Glocalization = Globalization + Localization.
• Local cultures are dynamic and adapt to global
influences.
Media Consumption
• Media reshapes societies and social behavior.
• TV changed family dynamics and social
activities.
• Technology can both enhance and limit
communication.
Impact of Technology on Memory
• Writing reduced dependence on memory.
• Cellphones expand reach but reduce attention
spans.
Global Media & Cultural
Imperialism

• People began consuming similar content
globally.
• Asian pop culture (e.g., Hello Kitty, K-pop)
became mainstream.
Social Media: Pros and Cons

activism (e.g., Arab Spring, Women’s March).
• Cons: Echo chambers, cyberbalkanization,
reinforced partisanship.
