CULTURAL DIFFUSIONIn the past, when groups of people lived in relative isolation, cultures varied widely from place to place. Customs, styles, and preferences were handed down from one generation to the next.Today, as result of high-speed communication, trade, and travel, cultures all around the world are encountering and adopting new ideas. New customs, clothings and music trends, food habits, and lifestyles are being introduced into cultures everywhere at almost the same time. Some people are concerned that this trend in popular culture may result in a loss of cultural distinctiveness that makes places unique. For example, fast food chains once found only in the United States can now be seen in major cities around the world. And denim jeans, once a distinctively American clothing style, are worn by young people everywhere in place of more traditional clothing.An important key to the spread, or diffusion, of popular culture is the increasing contact between people and places around the world. Cellular telephones, satellite television, and cybercafés have opened the world to styles and trends popular in Western countries. And tourist, traveling to places that were once considered remote and isolated, carry with them new ideas and fashions that become catalysts for bringing about cultural change.
