Westernization is often painted as progress - a path toward freedom, innovation, and modernity. From Hollywood films to Silicon Valley startups, the cultural allure is undeniable. But beneath the shiny surface lies an invisible gap - a cultural dissonance that many experience but few articulate.
Whether it's a student from Jakarta feeling out of place in a New York dorm, or a Nigerian entrepreneur navigating startup culture in Berlin, the challenges go beyond accents or cuisine. There are deeper disconnects - unspoken rules, values, and emotional languages that don't translate easily.
This book is not a critique of Westernization, nor a defense of traditionalism. It's a lens. One that helps us see the subtle psychological and sociocultural shifts that take place when Western ideals are absorbed - often unconsciously - into non-Western societies.
