It is a new system in which everyone is involved, either directly or indirectly. The system of globalization is lived by people, many of whom don't even know that they are doing so. Thus the cultural replicator, the meme of globalization, is successful because it has made its way into the minds of meme carriers and they apply its principles. There are many elements affecting the spread of the globalization meme. The first is the new fast-paced lifestyle.
Speed means everything in the world of globalization and is aiding in the expansion of it.
Because everything is moving at such a rapid pace, there usually isn't time to think of life as being any other way. The hurried life that people live makes it easier for the fast-paced meme to extend to more people and help globalization continue to prosper. The fast-paced lifestyle is made possible by the many new technologies. These technologies have allowed us to be able to contact people at any time and any place, and are accessible to all people, not just the upper class. With the whole world being wired, it is that much easier for globalization to keep expanding.
