Cultural Imperialism can be tentatively defined as a form of unequal, but not unilateral, cultural diffusion, across cultures or cultural traits, that results in the suppression of the distinctive characteristics of the less dominant in relation to the dominant one.
To do: Define cultural superiority. Define "primitive" cultures.
The relation is said to be unequal because it is often imposed, by economic, social or political decisions or processes, that has even involve armed conflict to establish said superiority and control.
To do: Include the concepts: "who wins the war will be the one that will write its history", "war is to cultures what sex is for animals"

The impact the superior Hollywood structure had in European cinema (Hollywood and communism, European protection to Cinema and TV productions). Control of mass media, propaganda and marketing concepts.
To do: Give examples using Native Americans (and all Indian Nations, African Nations and Tribes) or even the technological/economical exploration of India, China and Japan, especially during the European expansionism (or the previous effect of Islam expansionism until reaching Europe). Population movements in North America (pre-colonization and after colonization) or by China in Tibet. The part that religion expansionism has had on cultural diversity (ie. missionary missions), most interestingly in the north of Europe.
