It seems like some folks in this thread are conflating globalization with ultra-powerful organizations using their capital and influence to spread to the rest of the world. Other countries are simply untapped resources in their eyes. More folks to consume their products & services.

I think the two can be the same, however, that does not mean they are the same.

If oligarchs in one country spread to another its only because the other country already has power structures for an oligarchy in place. For the people on the ground living under an oligarchy it hardly matters what the nationality is of this oligarchy, they all read the same material.
