ThirD THinG, Social ChaNge cLAss

i went to social change class.
in there we got given newspaper articles. we had to find a social issue in what we read.
I found "cultural Homogenization/americanisation/westernisation" which is an interesting phenomenon. the idea scares me a little. although i dont think it would happen to the extreme where cultures entirely disappear.
I dont know what relevance this has to my project, but when i was researching it a lot of relevant cross overs started to happen.

heres an article, http://eapi.admu.edu.ph/eapr99/mamal.htm

"Globalization is one of the latest dominating issues of the everyday ways of life. The lives of ordinary people everywhere in the world seem increasingly to be shaped by the roles of local-global power dynamics.In this process, the western development partners promote the economic globalization with their own agenda."
