This paper will focus on the relationship between institutional internalization and organic solidarity. Being that there is a wide verity of different institutions, this writing will focus primarily on only religion, politics, and education. The internalization of the individual from each of these institutions greatly effects their beliefs, desires, and action, which as a result branches out into society from a mechanical solidarity operation into a more organic solidarity operation. Organic solidarity will depend on individuals in their respected association, to internalize their specific role. A control variable was used in this research to detect any spurious relationships that may change the final data and to avoid a type I or II error. The controlled variables used were five different categorizes of religious affiliation. Without the controlled variable the significance of the relationship between Institutional Internalization and Organic Solidarity was only .179. With the five controlled variables applied there was no significance found. With an additional Regression Analysis calculated there was minimal significance found with specific variables.

As a result of this changing climate of business, companies must recognize the harm that a narrow view on culture and experiences can cause in international consumer markets. Therefore, understanding culture is vital to developing successful international marketing strategies. The purpose of this paper is to develop an understanding of cultural differences and minimizing cross-cultural marketing barriers, thus illuminating the path toward effective marketing efforts between American and Chinese companies. It discusses cultural differences between China and the United States and reviews self-referencing criterion, ethnocentrism, country of origin effects, and international product adaptation. It also analyzes opinions of actual business executives in both China and the United States regarding international business practices.
