IWIPS- The International Workshop on Internationalisation of Products and SystemsTitle:
To Be (Global) Or Not To Be (Global)… -- Is that the Question?Author:
Chavan, A.L.Abstract:
In this ‘flat world’ are we becoming a global homogenous population or are we calling out our differences even more? On the one hand, we have global brands like McDonalds and Coke and Hollywood spreading out across the world and being able to say that the sun does not set on their empire. On the other hand, we have ever increasing instances of assertion of local ‘identities’ in the form of different types of subcultures.Original publication:
