Technological development stands out among the most influential factors in the globalization process. This development provides both the spread & universalization of access to the media & the immediate dissemination of great amounts of information. This has resulted in a worldwide homogenization of leisure time, which seems to affect in a prominent way the attitudes in societies that are culturally very different. In this report we examine how the media have a bearing on the attitudes of societies that show very distinct cultural features, paying special attention to the examples provided by sub-Saharan Africa, the Arabic World, & the most developed societies. 3 Tables, 16 References.
