Globalization is the way that the world becomes connected and intertwined much through the development of technology. Through globalization, many different cultures are shared around the world. Many nations are becoming “Americanized” through cultural imperialism. Cultural imperialism refers to the fact that those who have the power are able to share their culture with a much broader audience. This remains true with globalization because those who are in power, such as those who own television networks and own the technology to broadcast what they want, can impart their culture on others. Though this may not result in cultures changing completely, the exposure to other cultures through American television can influence how some think of our culture as a whole.
