Mcdonaldiztion In Society The McDonaldization of Society The Book McDonaldization, written by George Ritzer, seems to stress the point that corporations are dehumanizing people within our society, as we know it. With our necessity to make life easier, and feel safer, we are allowing other people and corporations to control what is best for us, and tell us what we need. It also shows how the many ways this is incorporated into our society. I found this book very interesting, and agreed with everything that Ritzer had stated. I also found it interesting on how we are allowing others to control us within our “self controllable society” without even knowing it, or accepting the fact that it is happening. One of the most influential points that Ritzer made within the book, is one that people are constantly being replaced with robots, or if not, are being taught to act like robots themselves. I do not think I noticed how many ways that not just the workers are created to act, and react to their environment, but how the customers are taught to do the same until I read this book. We are taught that fast food restaurants, banks, and so many more corporations, “do society, within, book, food, time, ritzer, people, being, page, money, line, corporations, taught, mcdonaldization, interesting, found, feel, fast, family, controlled, control, allowing, work, ways, talk, stress, store, self, robots, restaurant, real, points, point, person, paid
