Sommario/riassunto

"Communication and the Globalization of Culture: Beyond Tradition and Borders", by Shaheed Nick Mohammed, examines the modern and historical evolution of conceptualizations of culture as well as the concept of culture itself. The book suggests that modern corporate globalized media technologies do not destroy culture, but rather force us to re-think how we have conceptualized the differences, uniqueness, and similarities between ""the other"" and ourselves.
