It can be said that "American Dream" is one of the most significant features for the growth of a "constantly eyeing for winner" culture. American Studies experts call it as a "hegemonic culture" in which American norms, values and cultural practices are considered superior against the world culture.

Using American Studies perspective, this paper attempts to review the extent to which the "American Dream" has successfully established Americanization, as well as how the hegemonic culture has influenced the lives of peoples across the world in the form of popular culture.
