Cultural Imperialism, Extended

Captions available

The idea

Soc 0334 locks cultural imperialism as one culture's patterns spreading at another's expense through economic or political advantage; this entry extends it to media globalization's conflict-theory risk reading.

In practice

A school cafeteria menu swapping regional dishes for imported fast-food chains illustrates the pattern cultural imperialism names.

Where people slip

The concept names a risk media globalization can produce, not a claim every exchange erases local culture.
