Globalization and Culture

This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.

State

Globalization is the increased cultural contact and exchange among societies driven by trade, migration, and communication technology.

Show

The same franchise appears on every continent and adapts its menu in each country it enters.

Watch for

Globalization is not one culture replacing the rest; the same import is reinterpreted locally (Soc 0330), and contact also produces deliberate revival of local forms.
