The scenario in which when Eevin backpacks across Europe after his high school graduation, he is surprised to find Burger Kings, H&Ms, and even wal-mart stores in the foreign cities is an example of the Mcdonaldization of society. The term Mcdonaldization was introduced by sociologist George Ritzer. It denotes the sociological phenomenom characterized with increased presence of the fast food business.

This is an example of "The McDonaldization of Society ".
McDonaldization is the term created by George Ritzer to depict a sociological phenomenom that is occurring in our society.
Thus the McDonaldization of Society alludes to the expanding nearness of the cheap food plan of action in like manner social foundations. This plan of action incorporates productivity (the division of work), consistency, calculability, and control (observing).
