Cultural imperialism refers to the imposition of one culture over another, typically through the dominance of a major power. There are several synonyms one can use to describe this phenomenon. Some may refer to it as cultural colonialism, cultural domination, or cultural hegemony. Others may use terms such as cultural assimilation, cultural imperialism, or cultural subjugation. Regardless of the term chosen, the concept remains the same: one culture is attempting to assert its dominance over another. It is important to recognize these synonyms as they indicate the negative impact of cultural imperialism on marginalized groups and the need for cultural diversity and empowerment.
