Globalization is now widely discussed but the debates often remainlocked within particular disciplinary discourses. This book bringstogether for the first time a social theory and cultural studiesapproach to the understanding of globalization. The book starts with an analysis of the relationship between theglobalization process and contemporary culture change and goes onto relate this to debates about social and cultural modernity. Atthe heart of the book is a far-reaching analysis of the complex,ambiguous "lived experience" of global modernity. Tomlinson arguesthat we can now see a general pattern of the dissolution betweencultural experience and territorial location. The "uneven" natureof this experience is discussed in relation to first and thirdworld societies, along with arguments about the hybridization ofcultures, and special role of communications and media technologiesin this process of "deterritorialization". Globalization andCultureconcludes with a discussion of the cultural politics ofcosmopolitanism. Accessibly written, this book will be of interest to second yearundergraduates and above in sociology, media studies, cultural andcommunication studies, and anyone interested in globalization.
