About the Author

Recenzii

An excellent introduction to the complex questions raised by globalization, culture, and hybridity. This book dismantles some of the dominant myths, offers the reader a clear vision of what is currently going on, and shows the author at the height of his powers.
In our politically challenging times, the new and extended edition of this classic book represents a powerful antidote against apologists of national cultures. Drawing on extensive theoretical and empirical research, Jan Nederveen Pieterse develops a relational conception of culture as a dynamic and continuing work in progress that cannot be circumscribed by national borders.
