Mark Liechty discusses global-local connections including media effects, middle class formation, tourism, youth consumer culture in restaurants, prostitution and pornography. He argues that middle-class youths in the urban setting in developing countries contribute to the producing and reproducing of global culture and engaging as the part of the world system. The civilization of Kathmandu valley is not only associated with the erotic idols of Pasupati temple, Buddhist shrines, stucco palaces of the Ranas and ancient civilization of the Newar, but also a process of class formation. Liechty has presented his ethnographic details beyond the "primitive" and "exotic" societies and suggested that culture should be understood through the global connection that Arjun Appadurai explained in his book Modernity at Large.
