I started to wonder, what's the advantage of being culturally dominant anyway? By the end of your post I wondered it even more. I suppose there's gain to be had from global brand recognition and all that, since I don't think the kids who grow up wincing at the sight of a Starbucks outnumber the kids worldwide who practically grow up IN McDonalds, not yet anyway.
From the point of view of 'the Chinese', your idea's a bit worrying.

I'm sure that the Chinese Government would, like the Americans, love to corner the market in every single sphere of human activity!

We also asked about slavery, a significant concept in American history that would be a glaring omission if it were completely ignored.

Read some of your past posts. Have you ever been to Beijing yourself, Richard?

Certainly have, though I never lived there. How about you?

That's your understanding of "culture"? anonymous September 3 2006, 16:36:45 UTC

If that is your whole understanding of culture, there is really nothing we could do.
