    Globalization

    "Do you think globalization has resulted in the exportation of too much american culture?"

    It's actually the topic of my mid-term english essay but i found it to be very interesting.
    Also i would like to know what native americans have to say about this

    Having given the matter some thought, my main idea was that the problem is the exportation of american consumerism, meaning mass consumption according to some marketing schemes...

    do you always get essays on questions of rhetorical nature?

      Are you denying that there's a cultural hegemony? I mean I don't want to get in an argument over an English mid-term, but I disagree.

        I am not denying that there is cultural hegemony. But it's not forced on anyone. No one is coming into your country and dictating what you should listen to, what movies you should watch, etc. The masses worldwide are stupid, whether it's USA or France or Iran, and America is the best in the world at producing mass culture.
