Abstract
Increased global flows of people and things impact cultural identity and change how societies interact. In ethnographic terms, this does not lead to hyper globalisation or homogenisation as some have claimed but rather creates several forces that allow for competition between different local groups. In this, and revolutionaries approach to change occurs with some ideas integrating into the local concepts and culture. This is not a system that replaces local culture but rather enhances and changes cultures based on new concepts and the exchange of memes and ideas globally.
