Culture, Globalization And The World-System

---

This book examines the complex relations between cultural issues, globalization and the world-system. Culture, whether in its material or symbolic form, is an attribute which people(s) are said to have; globalization is a process and the world-system a structure. The anthology of different authors then examines these interrelations from different perspectives:rnrnAnthony D. King, Spaces of Culture, Spaces of KnowledgernStuart Hall, The Local and the Global: Globalization and EthnicityrnStuart Hall, Old and New Identities, Old and New EthnicitiesrnRoland Robertson, Social Theory, Cultural Relativity and the Problem of GlobalityrnImmanuel Wallerstein, The National and the Universal: Can There Be Such a Thing as World Culture?rnUlf Hannerz, Scenarios for Peripheral CulturesrnJanet Abu Lughod, Going Beyond Global BabblernBarbara Abou-El-Haj, Languages and Models for Cultural ExchangernMaureen Turim, Specificity and CulturernAnthony King, The Global, the Urban, and the WorldrnJohn Tagg, Globalization, Totalization and the Discursive FieldrnJanet Wolff, The Global and the Specific: Reconciling Conflicting Theories of CulturernrnPage 21 - To be English is to know yourself in relation to the French, and the hot-blooded Mediterraneans, and the passionate, traumatized Russian soul. You go round the entire globe: when you know what everybody else is, then you are what they are not. Identity is always, in that sense, a structured representation which only achieves its positive through the narrow eye of the negative. It has to go through the eye of the needle of the other before it can construct itself. It produces a very Manichean set...‎rnAppears in 10 books from 1979-2004rnrnPage 25 - The erosion of the nation-state, national economies and national cultural identities is a very complex and dangerous moment. Entities of power are dangerous when they are ascending and when they are declining and it is a moot point whether they are more dangerous in the second or the first moment. The first moment, they gobble up everybody and in the second moment they take everybody down with them.‎rnAppears in 8 books from 1995-1998rnrnPage 35 - The re-creation, the reconstruction of imaginary, knowable places in the face of the global post-modern which has, as It were, destroyed the identities of specific places, absorbed them into this post-modern flux of diversity. So one understands the moment when people reach for those groundings, as it were, and the reach for those groundings is what I call ethnicity.8...‎rnAppears in 17 books from 1967-2005rnrnPage 77 - But this repatriation or export of the designs and commodities of difference continuously exacerbates the internal politics of majoritarianism and homogenization, which is most frequently played out in debates over heritage. Thus the central feature of global culture today is the politics of the mutual effort of sameness and difference to cannibalize one another and thus to proclaim their successful hijacking of the twin Enlightenment ideas of the triumphantly universal and the resiliently particular.‎rnAppears in 34 books from 1990-2006rnrnPage 155 - This was the moment when language invaded the universal problematic, the moment when, in the absence of a center or origin, everything became discourse — provided we can agree on this word — that is to say, a system in which the central signified, the original or transcendental signified, is never absolutely present outside a system of differences.‎rnAppears in 157 books from 1962-2008rnrnContents:rnGlobalization and Ethnicity 19rnOld and New Identities Old and New Ethnicities 41rnSocial Theory Cultural Relativity and the Problem 69rnCan There Be Such 91rnScenarios for Peripheral Cultures 107rnInterrogating Theories of the Global 129rnn Languages and Models for Cultural Exchange 139rnHI Specificity and Culture 145rnGlobalization Totalization and the Discursive Field 155rnReconciling Conflicting 161rnName Index 175rnNotes on Contributors 185rnCopyright
