The ever-increasing trend towards the globalisation of culture presents a major challenge to traditions of social and cultural analysis developed and focussed at the level of the nation state. In this book major theorists from Cultural Studies, Sociology, Art History and Anthropology present and debate a range of paradigms for understanding the production and presentation of cultures, as socially organised systems of meaning, in 'the world as a single place'.
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Rapid transformations in global communications and in the world political economy are having massive effects on the prisms and categories (race, gender, ethnicity, class, nation) in which cultures, as socially organized systems of meaning, are being produced and represented. "Culture, Globalisation and the World System" brings together contributions from a group of major theorists in cultural studies, sociology and anthropology to address these issues.
