A guest student blogger posted an article here about how she thought that the Sexy Beijing item onChinese people using Western names was an example of cultural imperialism. Interestingly, some US/Chinesewebsites have taken up the issue and it’s kickstarted a good global conversation. One of the good things about theweb is the way that this kind of dialogue can happen. One of the good things about this blog is that even a two-month old posting is still circulating and provoking thought – feel free to continue the conversation here!Copyright © 2014 London School of Economics and Political Science1/1
