Cultural Imperialism‎
I highly disagree with the section about Cultural Imperialism‎, in how it presents the influence that Westerns culture has had and continues to exert as a bad example. This will be covered in the Teaching Social Studies in Virtual Space/Cultural Anthropology/Cultural Imperialism page (see my edits now on Teaching Social Studies in Virtual Space/Cultural Anthropology/cultural imperialism2). In any case the effect (probably not the label) predates the cold war, it has been a constant across most of human history for instance the relation between the Romans and the Greeks... --Panic (discuss • contribs) 19:08, 22 July 2011 (UTC)

Cultural alternative - it is quite easy to discuss culture change in a given form but it should be discussed only in the frame of cultural imperialism ans cultural hybrid because all creatures want to survive and it is supported by survival of the fittest given by Darwin but after the coinage of culture and eruption of Human rights, every human being has right to survive even as a member of a cultural group. Culture has its own limit and carrying capacity which pushes its people to adopt some alternatives for survival and when these alternatives are adopted by several members of a particular culture, its become the part of cultural change .so change is a matter of use of alternatives for livelihood and survival instead of imperialism or hybrid effect reference - Alternative of the society by chantia alok, publisher Naina Dayal publication , New Delhi , India


 * Your above post is a bit hard to digest in its intelligibility. But I note an error in what I think I understand. You are equating culture to a individualized living being, that simply is comparing oranges to apples a culture can be modified and isn't born a blank slate nor has an expiration date included among many other major differences (point is as any artificial constructs cultures do not have, or should have rights even if they should be protected or at least enshrined in memory at the peak of their originality and as completely as possible). Cultural diversity is a wonderful thing, but at the same time we go to war because of cultural clashes, in fact war is how cultures is interchanged (not simply military war but any type of active cultural conflict) in the end winers or losers all are culturally changed. --Panic (discuss • contribs) 09:17, 13 January 2014 (UTC)
