Blog About Notes 9/22/15

These days, modern communication has played a huge role in cultural globalization with other countries. You can find news and articles and pretty much everything on the internet. People can see anything by easily typing in your search and hitting enter. The internet is an amazing thing. In any second, people can be informed about political news and natural disasters. 60% of the whole entire world can use cell phones. Someone in Europe can easily talk to someone in the United States.

Another thing that helps globalization is travel. Every year millions of people change countries looking for new work. Of course, this doesn't just apply to work. It can also apply to vacations or tourism. This exposes those people to other cultures.

Something else that has been a part of globalization is Popular Culture. Say someone in the United States enjoys listening to African music. That is because of Popular Culture globalization. This is also the same with food chains. You can find pretty much wherever you go, there will be a McDonalds nearby. You can also find many more American food chains, or clothing chains, or other stores throughout Europe.

Two more ways of globalization would be Politics and Economy. Economy because of international trade, and Politics because of things like computers. Computers can keep everyone informed about any countries current Political Debates, or Political News.
