Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: C'est l'homme, ce sont les mouvements humains, les influences et les croisements, qui créent la culture et font sa richesse, bien plus que l'accumulation et la sédimentation du patrimoine. La culture est vivante, fluide. Dans La mobilité culturelle à l'heure de la mondialisation, Wang Jingsheng poursuit ainsi une réflexion universelle, chinoise et locale sur la production de la culture et ses évolutions dans les changements civilisationnels et techniques contemporains. Universelle, tant les thèses de l'auteur, les penseurs convoqués et les exemples cités concernent l'ensemble de la planète, loin des identités refermées. Chinoise, car en s'intéressant avant tout au mouvement, aux dynamiques que créent les rapports, il s'inscrit typiquement dans les cadres conceptuels de la pensée de cette grande puissance. Locale, car cette mobilité de la culture est aussi celle de Shenzhen, mégapole nouvelle au patrimoine restreint. Une réflexion contemporaine plurielle pour placer la culture au coeur de tout développement économique et humain.

Book excerpt: In this book leading social scientists from many countries analyze the extent to which we are seeing a globalization of culture. Is a unified world culture emerging? And if so, how does this relate to existing cultural divisions and to the autonomy of the nation state? Differing explanations are offered for trends towards global unification and their relation to an economic world-system. Will the intensification of global contact produce increasing tolerance of other cultures? Or will an integrating culture produce sharper reactions in the form of fundamentalist and nationalist movements? The contributors explore the emergence of `third cultures', such as international law, the financial markets and media conglomerates, as

Book excerpt: Written with the clarity and insight that readers have come to expect of Mike Featherstone Undoing Culture is a notable contribution to our understanding of modernism and postmodernism. It explores the formation and deformation of the cultural sphere and the effects on culture of globalization. Against many orthodox postmodernist accounts,the author argues that it is wrong to regard our present state of fragmentation and dislocation as an epochal break. Existing interdependencies and power balances are not so easily broken down. Nonetheless some important cultural changes have occurred since World War II. In particular, the book examines some of the processes which have uncoupled culture from the social; the erosion of the ideal of the heroic life in the face of the onslaught from consumerism and the deformation of culture; and the rise of new forms of identity development. It explains why culture has gained a more significant role in everyday life and also why it has come to preoccupy the Academy in recent years. Mike Featherstone looks at the effects of the multiplication of cultural goods and images on our ability to read culture and develop fixed meanings and relationships. He highlights the importance of the global in attempting to cope with the objective difficulties of cultural overproduction. The book concludes that the rise of non-Western nation-states with different cultural frames produces different reactions of modernity, making it more appropriate to refer to global modernities.
Download or read book La Mondialisation culturelle written by Gérard Leclerc and published by FeniXX. This book was released on 1999-12-31T23:00:00+01:00 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dans les médias, comme dans l'opinion publique, le terme de mondialisation est devenu d'usage courant. C'est dire qu'il fonctionne à la fois comme une évidence indiscutable, et comme une matière inépuisable de débats et de controverses. Mais son sens en est circonscrit, le plus souvent, à la sphère économique entendue stricto sensu (le marché capitaliste mondial). Dans cet ouvrage, l'accent est mis sur la dimension culturelle du phénomène. La mondialisation n'est-elle pas aussi – et peut-être surtout – une mise en contact rapproché de sociétés aux valeurs différentes, hétérogènes, éventuellement conflictuelles ? Faut-il, dans la rencontre désormais intime de l'Orient et de l'Occident, de l'islam et du Christianisme, de l'Amérique et de la Chine, du Japon et de l'Europe, voir l'aube d'une ère nouvelle ? Et, si oui, cette ère sera-t-elle porteuse d'un choc des civilisations meurtrier ? Ou bien, la confrontation pacifique marquera-t-elle les débuts d'une humanité enfin pleinement consciente d'elle-même, la vraie naissance du genre humain, que les philosophes ont défini autrefois comme une espèce animale douée de rationalité et de sociabilité ?
Download or read book Religion in the Age of Re Globalization written by Roland Benedikter and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-12-13 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a concise introduction into twenty-one trends that are transforming the role of religion and spirituality in “re-globalizing” societies. In referring to processes of “re-globalization”, the book draws attention to profound ongoing changes in the patterns and mechanisms of contemporary globalization. Inter- and transdisciplinary in its approach, clearly structured, and easy to read, the book analyzes the impact of religious self-understanding, rhetoric, and practice on five core fields: economics, politics, culture, demography, and technology. In turn, it describes the effects of these five fields on religion and spirituality themselves. This book represents a broad, encompassing overview of the main transformations that religion is undergoing today. Roland Benedikter combines a “big picture” approach with a keen attention to the details of specific case studies. With its clear and accessible structure and timely examples, this book is ideally suited for students of international relations and religious studies, and will also appeal to researchers engaged in those fields and to interested general readers. The book is also apt to serve as an encompassing basis for contemporary debates in civil society, including both grassroots and expert discussions.
Download or read book Globalization written by Arjun Appadurai and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second installment of Public Culture's Millennial Quartet seeks to intervene in the increasingly heated debates surrounding the cultural dimensions of globalization, which includes debates about what globalization is and whether it is a meaningful term. The volume focuses in particular on the way that changing sites--local, regional, diasporic--are the scenes of emergent forms of sovereignty in which matters of style, sensibility, and ethos articulate new legalities and new kinds of violence. Seeking an alternative to the dead-end debate between those who see globalization as a phenomenon wholly without precedent and those who see it simply as modernization, imperialism, or global capitalism with a new face, the contributors seek to illuminate how space and time are transforming each other in special ways in the present era. They examine how this complex transformation involves changes in the situation of the nation, the state, and the city. While exploring distinct regions--China, Africa, South America, Europe--and representing different disciplines and genres--anthropology, literature, political science, sociology, music, cinema, photography--the contributors are concerned with both the political economy of location and the locations in which political economies are produced and transformed. A special strength of the collection is its concern with emergent styles of subjectivity, citizenship, and mobilization and with the transformations of state power through which market rationalities are distributed and embodied locally.

Download or read book Global Local written by Rob Wilson and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 1996-05-27 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This groundbreaking collection focuses on what may be, for cultural studies, the most intriguing aspect of contemporary globalization—the ways in which the postnational restructuring of the world in an era of transnational capitalism has altered how we must think about cultural production. Mapping a "new world space" that is simultaneously more globalized and localized than before, these essays examine the dynamic between the movement of capital, images, and technologies without regard to national borders and the tendency toward fragmentation of the world into increasingly contentious enclaves of difference, ethnicity, and resistance. Ranging across issues involving film, literature, and theory, as well as history, politics, economics, sociology, and anthropology, these deeply interdisciplinary essays explore the interwoven forces of globalism and localism in a variety of cultural settings, with a particular emphasis on the Asia-Pacific region. Powerful readings of the new image culture, transnational film genre, and the politics of spectacle are offered as is a critique of globalization as the latest guise of colonization. Articles that unravel the complex links between the global and local in terms of the unfolding narrative of capital are joined by work that illuminates phenomena as diverse as "yellow cab" interracial sex in Japan, machinic desire in Robocop movies, and the Pacific Rim city. An interview with Fredric Jameson by Paik Nak-Chung on globalization and Pacific Rim responses is also featured, as is a critical afterword by Paul Bové. Positioned at the crossroads of an altered global terrain, this volume, the first of its kind, analyzes the evolving transnational imaginary—the full scope of contemporary cultural production by which national identities of political allegiance and economic regulation are being undone, and in which imagined communities are being reshaped at both the global and local levels of everyday existence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Avec la mondialisation accrue, l’intensification des mouvements de population à l’échelle planétaire et le développement des nouvelles technologies de l’information et de la communication (NTIC), il n’est aujourd’hui plus question de confondre culture, identité et territoire – d’origine ou d’accueil – pour comprendre l’individu. La psychologie doit nécessairement se donner les moyens d’appréhender les incidences des particularismes culturels et identitaires sur les conduites, en analysant les situations où elles s’expriment et la mouvance des dynamiques interculturelles sans cesse renouvelées qui les portent (étroitement dépendantes de contraintes socio-économiques, politiques et financières à l’échelle mondiale). Qu’est-ce que la mondialisation ? Pourquoi et en quoi ce phénomène affecte-t-il tous les acteurs sociaux ? Comment fautil comprendre les notions de culture et d’identité culturelle ? Contact interculturel et choc de culture : comment les analyser et en prévenir les nuisances dans la mobilité internationale ? En développant la notion de stratégie identitaire, cet ouvrage examine les conditions de l’adaptation interculturelle de celui/celle qui nécessairement doit (ré)aménager son identité pour s’adapter au mieux aux divers milieux dans lesquels il doit (sur)vivre. Il s’adresse à tous les étudiants, chercheurs et praticiens des sciences humaines et sociales qui visent à optimiser les échanges et le développement humains.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it mean to be young in a changing world? How are migration, settlement and new urban cultures shaping young lives? And in particular, are race, place and class still meaningful to contemporary youth cultures? This path-breaking book shows how young people are responding differently to recent social, economic and cultural transformations. From the spirit of white localism deployed by de-industrialized football supporters, to the hybrid multicultural exchanges displayed by urban youth, young people are finding new ways of wrestling with questions of race and ethnicity. Through globalization is whiteness now being displaced by black culture -- in fashion, music and slang -- and if so, what impact is this having on race politics? Moreover, what happens to those people and places that are left behind by changes in late modernity? By developing a unique brand of spatial cultural studies, this book explores complex formations of race and class as they arise in the subtle textures of whiteness, respectability and youth subjectivity. This is the first book to look specifically at young ethnicities through the prism of local-global change. Eloquently written, its riveting ethnographic case studies and insider accounts will ensure that this book becomes a benchmark publication for writing on race in years to come.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La mondialisation se caractérise par la contraction de l'espace-temps planétaire et l'augmentation exponentielle des flux financiers, marchands, médiatiques et culturels, liés à la dynamique du capitalisme. Son impact culturel est triple : au cours du siècle écoulé, le patrimoine culturel et linguistique des sociétés de la tradition s'est réduit comme peau de chagrin ; en second lieu, les perdants de la mondialisation se sentent agressés, assiégés, et se replient sur des identités nationales et locales ; enfin les systèmes politiques fonctionnent comme une machine à produire de la différence, par la mobilisation de la culture. Seule une réflexion anthropologique est susceptible de fournir des outils conceptuels pour progresser dans l'analyse de ces turbulences. C'est ce que propose la cinquième édition, entièrement refondue, de ce livre rigoureux et accessible.
Download or read book The Legacy of the Baby Boomers or the French Social System written by Marie-Claire Patron and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-09 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to identify key factors influencing the increasing brain drain of French early and mid-career graduates primarily to Anglo-Saxon countries in order to avoid the inexorable outcome of their tertiary studies: precarious employment conditions relegating them to the status of intellectual underclass in France. This qualitative ethnographic study investigated the experiences of 38 French nationals and expatriates aged between 21 and 48 to provide a voice to the increasing number of students and graduates who despair at the thought of witnessing their years of study culminate in a perennial cycle of training, unemployment, internship. What distinguishes the French from their European counterparts who also struggle to secure employment and a decent future? These unprecedented circumstances in Europe are as a result of the global financial crisis and the current sovereign debt predicament. Who is responsible for the quandary in which French graduates find themselves in the stratified French society of today, where globalisation has made academic mobility de rigueur? France risks losing her talented Generation X to more accepting countries where a spirit of meritocracy exists and economic rewards are awarded after years of tertiary education and assiduousness. A large number of constituents belonging to Baby Boomer Generation are ensconced in comfortable government positions or are established in lucrative careers reserved for the upper echelons of the privileged classes. Are the Baby Boomers to blame for the predicament of Generation X, for failing to transmit intergenerational equality to subsequent generations? Will the new government deliver on the promises to grant France’s youth the economic rewards they deserve, and the respect and equality that the previous generation have taken for granted?
