Abstract

Globalization is one of the most controversial concepts of our age and it is not surprising that heated debates rage around it. However, these debates are restricted largely to the economic and technological aspects-the impact of globalization on our sociocultural, environmental, moral, and humanitarian realities has received inadequate attention. This volume brings together eleven articles, written by distinguished commentators on globalization, which explore these neglected dimensions. Knitting together theoretical aspects and empirical knowledge, it arrives at a balanced view of globalizati

Abstract

Rhetoric about media technology tends to fall into two extreme categories: unequivocal celebration or blanket condemnation. This is particularly true in debate over the clash of values when first world media infiltrate third world audiences. Bringing together the best new work on contemporary media practices, technologies, and policies, the essayists in Global Currents argue that neither of these extreme views accurately represents the role of media technology today. New ways of thinking about film, television, music, and the internet demonstrate that it is not only media technologies that affect the cultures into which they are introduced—it is just as likely that the receiving culture will change the media. Topics covered in the volume include copyright law and surveillance technology, cyber activism in the African Diaspora, transnational monopolies and local television industries, the marketing and consumption of “global music,” “click politics” and the war on Afghanistan, the techno-politics of distance education, artificial intelligence and global legal institutions, and traveling and “squatting” in digital space. Balanced between major theoretical positions and original field research, the selections address the political and cultural meanings that surround and configure new technologies.
