Go Global!


Globalization is spreading across similar values, expectations, images (etc.) between countries breaking down differences and unique features in cultures.

By infiltrating local customs and cultures a western “cultural imperialism” spreads western ideals and standard altering other cultures.

This can be seen with international hit-tv shows such as “Sex and the City.”  The sexual exploits of women in the big city makes their lifestyle of materialism seem fabulous and an ideal way women should live.  This is much different value system than some country’s more conservative cultures, however by globally marketing this show the western standard of sex and feminism is infiltrated into other cultures.
