Globalisation: it centres on the increased mobility of goods, services, labour, technology and capital worlwide..said to have caused 'cultural imperialism' and 'global village.'

Action point: i largely consume westernised media such Hollywood films and drama series such as the O.C and Friends. However, i do consume British films and soaps such as Eastenders on a regular basis. I rarely consume media from other cultures and even my own thus suggesting that cultural imperialism is rife even as an ethnic minority..:D
