Patrimony, heritage, and commodity production in handloom studies
Commodity production, in many countries, provides both economic and financial stability for its constitutions. In many instances, commodity production can determine overall prosperity of a particular nation, heavily dependent on its production. Many emerging countries, for example, depend heavily on exporting commodities to other more developed nations. Examples include oil from South America, oranges from Brazil, sugar from Costa Rica, and manufacturing from China. As the articles indicate, India is dependent on the textile industry with respect to the production of clothing. As such, government policies and societal norms designed to help this industry flourish are very important to the overall prosperity of the nation. In addition, globalization provides added financial incentive in which to specialize in a particular trade.

Mass Communication Why Are Books Considered \"Mass\"
Books are considered mass media due to their widespread appeal rather than physical book sales. Books are unique in that the notions imbedded within them often transcend tradition sales figures. The concepts and ideas contained in books can quickly spread without the need for individuals to physically purchase the book. For example, aspects of Christianity are well known even by those who have yet to purchase a physical copy of the Bible. The notions of giving, charity, honesty, integrity, and pursuit of knowledge are all concepts embedded within the Bible. Many individuals are therefore aware of these concepts and apply them daily without physically purchasing the Bible. The advent of the internet and globalization has further expanded this notion of "mass" media relative to actual book sales.

Paradoxically, it is these factors that the capitalist society is built on that push our society further, and that provide the fuel that drives this society's mechanism. Capitalism is frequently pointed the finger at when the greed of people and financial organizations lead to financial crises, and to other problems caused by individuals' inability of controlling their consumerist tendencies. Capitalism is also viewed as an evolutionary period that was necessary for the human society.
