The book that I chose was Globalization vs. Americanization. This reading make me think about this topic and how important is to see the difference. Globalization is communication between the different countries of the world to unify their markets, societies and cultures. The media, literature, sports, all it could contribute to the individual is integrated into the world and feel they belong to a community without borders. Globalization is not the same as Americanization. Sometimes it’s hard for Americans to see the difference because they know that they have had big contributions to the world. The United States has contributed with a lot of advances in the world, but we live in one world and there is a transnational revolution taking place in front of our eyes.
