Global Culture: Consciousness and Connectivity de Roland Robertson

Global Culture: Consciousness and Connectivity: Global Connections

Autor Roland Robertson, Didem Buhari-Gulmez
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 aug 2018
The current discourse of globalization is overwhelmingly centred upon the interconnectedness, or connectivity, of the contemporary world; to the great neglect of the issues of global culture and global consciousness. With contemporary worldwide culture increasingly characterized by such themes as astronomy, cosmology, space travel and exploration, there is an increasing disjuncture between academic concern with connectivity, on the one hand, and culture and consciousness of the place of planet earth in the cosmos as a whole, on the other. This book addresses this deficiency from a variety of closely related perspectives, presenting studies of religion, science, sport, international organizations, global resistance movements and migrations and developments in East Asia. It brings together the latest theoretical empirical work from scholars in the US, UK, Australia, Japan, China and Israel on the significance of culture and global consciousness. As such, Global Culture: Consciousness and Connectivity will be of great interest to scholars across and beyond the social sciences working in the areas of global studies, cultural studies, social theory, the sociology of religion and related issues.

Recenzii

’Robertson and Buhari-Gulmez have put together impressive analyses of the cultural dimensions of contemporary globalization, which has usually been seen in economic terms. The chapters creatively treat global homogenization as intertwined with local adaptation, often employing Robertson’s well-known concept glocalization. The book will be very useful for anyone concerned with worldwide cultural developments.’ John W. Meyer, Stanford University, USA
