Modernity at Large: Cultural Dimensions of Globalization
Synopsis
Offering a new framework for the cultural study of globalization, Modernity at large shows how the imagination works as a social force in today's world, providing new resources for identity and energies for creating alternatives to the nation-state. One of the world's leading cultural theorists, Arjun Appadurai examines the current epoch of globalization, which is characterized by the twin forces of mass migration and electronic mediation. He provides fresh ways of looking at the most urgent cultural debates facing the world today --on popular consumption patterns, multi-culturalism and ethnic violence. The result is a book vital for all interested in contemporary culture and theory, both in India and across the world.
