When these markets include cultural products, such as music, film, and television, their expansion raises fears of cultural imperialism. [2] An example of this is the permeation of Western beauty standards into other cultures because of Western media. Extended definition of the term. Who coined the term? Disciplinary history? Significant figures, theorists, etc.?
