Surveillance - The need to know what is happening in the real world
This is something we witness on TV dramas as they attempt to make it as real as possible and include events that take place in the real world.
Cultural Assimilation - When ones culture comes to resemble another ones culture e.g. In fresh prince of Bel-Air Jeffrey the maid is portrayed as this well spoken,educated man and comes from a good background, effectively holds qualities of a White man however the Black people on this show are portrayed as people who come from troubled backgrounds, dress very casually and are a nuisance.
Cultural Pluralism - Small groups within an ever-changing society who manage to keep hold of their identity e.g.a white family who have moved from the north of England to London which is known for it's multiculturalism, but they manage to keep the identity that they developed from where they lived.
Multiculturalism - Living in a society made up of different cultures e.g. a society made up of Asians, Africans, Caribeans, Americans who all live together.
