Affects local cultures in 2 ways:1. their material culture, their jewelry and clothing, their food
and games, can be commodified by themselves or nonmembers.
2. Non-material culture, their religion, language, and beliefs can be commodified, often by nonmembers selling local spiritual and herbal cures to ailments.
Entire cultures can be commodified as a whole, tourist buses observing the Amish culture of Lancaster, PA or trekking with “traditional” Nepalese guides on spiritual journeys in the Himalayas.
When commidification occurs, authenticity is in question. Many times an entire culture is typecast by one cultural trait. An authentic culture does not fit into a single experience.
