Anotace
An essential contribution to the understanding of today's increasingly global social relations, this book provides an informed overview of the key issues in this important debate. The essays focus on space as the organizing theme of modernity, problematizing the historical accounts of social change. An essential issue is the emergence of trans-national mediascapes, ethnoscapes and technoscapes: international social, political and cultural institutions that are superseding national ones.Global Modernities is a sustained commentary on the international character of the most microcosmic practices. It demonstrates how the global increasingly informs the regional, so deconstructing ideas like the `nation-state' and `national sovereignty'. The spatialization of social theory, hybridization and bio-politics are among the critical issues discussed. This book will be required reading for students of sociology and cultural studies, as well as disciplines like politics and media studies where globalization is becoming a core subject of enquiry.
