Paper instructions:
Many feel that globalization is synonymous with “Americanization.” In other words, since the 60s, the western way of life has rapidly spread across the globe. There is not a city in the world now where you cannot find a McDonalds, Pizza Hut, KFC, and, of course, blue jeans. Please write a short paper addressing the impact of the global spread of capitalism that attends to the following questions:
•    If we are indeed becoming a “global village” with western beliefs, values, norms, and such, what place is there for other nations’ beliefs, customs, and traditions?
•    Is it unethical for the American government to engage in global trade with countries that degrade women, imprison political dissidents, censor information, and the like?
