Cultures of Globalization : Coherence, Hybridity, Contestation PDF
Edited by Kevin Archer, M. Martin Bosman, M. Mark Amen, Ella Schmidt
Part of the Rethinking Globalizations series
Description
Much has been written about the economic and political implications of the contemporary process of globalization.
Much less has been written about the specific cultural implications.
Previously published as a special issue of Globalizations, this book seeks to add to our knowledge of the latter by bringing together researchers from different disciplines with the common goal of exploring the emerging cultural relations among groups and individuals in terms of coherence and hybridity, identity and allegiance, and cooperation and conflict.
As the world’s peoples increasingly travel, work, trade, recreate, and otherwise communicate with each other, relative cultural isolation (and isolationism) is becoming less and less possible.
What does this mean for cultural coherence, stability and identity across the planet?
What have been the cultural implications of, and reactions to, this increasing global interdependence among peoples?
From more global and theoretical perspectives to more empirical and case-specific approaches, the various authors attempt to come to terms with the ever evolving and complex cultural content of contemporary globalization.
