What is globalization?• Globalization refers to the
process by which something involves the entire world and becomes global in scope.
• Opposite of global is local.• Ex. Mc D’s used to sell their
food only to people a small area…now it is available across the globe.
• Ex. American cars used to be made in America….how the parts are made across the globe and assembled in America.

Economic Globalization
• The integration of national economies into the international economy through trade, foreign direct investment, migration, and the spread of technology.
• Primarily responsible for economic globalization are transnational corporations.– An American owned company has headquarters
in 3 different cities (NY, London, Tokyo). Raw materials are from Africa, products are assembled in Asia, and sold to people in Europe.

Cultural Globalization
• The spread of cultural elements from the local to global level.– Ex. English language, television shows, products
• Many things that are part of American culture are also a part of a global culture as well.
• Foreign cultures are becoming less foreign as globalization spreads….PEOPLE ARE BECOMING LESS DIFFERENT AND MORE SIMILAR!

Cultural Hearth
• An area where cultural traits develop and then diffuse.
• Example: Christianity originated in the Middle East, but over time diffused to Europe, the Americas.
• What was the cultural hearth for hip-hop culture?

Cultural Diffusion
• The spread of an idea or innovation from its cultural hearth to other places.
![Page 13: Culture AP Human Geography. What is globalization? Globalization refers to the process by which something involves the entire world and becomes global.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032605/56649e755503460f94b764b4/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Types of Diffusion
• Expansion diffusion- idea/ innovation develops in hearth, stays strong at hearth, expands to new turf (McDonalds)
• Relocation diffusion- idea/ innovation originates in hearth, then originators move bringing the idea/ innovation with them (ethnic neighborhood in city)

Time-Distance Decay
• The farther an idea/ innovation gets from the hearth, the less likely it is to be accepted.
• Also, the longer it takes to reach a target, the less likely it is to be accepted.
• Example: A certain fashion may be popular in a major city, but once it reaches a rural area very few are aware of it.

Cultural Barriers
• Can also prevent the diffusion of ideas/ innovations.
• Ideas/ innovations are not allowed to spread to certain areas because they are viewed as unacceptable, taboo, or against tradition.
• Example: Women's Rights in Saudi Arabia or beef hamburgers in India.
