OpenStudy (kristen.4):

Cultural diffusion and cultural appropriation are means of cultural sharing. Cultural diffusion refers to the process by which characteristics of one culture are spread to nearby cultures. Media, trade, and popular culture can help diffusion take place. Appropriation refers to the borrowing or adopting of customs from another culture. When diffusing culture, a group is spreading its beliefs, practices, and values. When appropriating culture, a group is taking beliefs, practices, and values from others.
