Reviews
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. -- The Right Honourable Lord Parekh, Member of the House of Lords
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. -- Sergio Costa, Freie Universitat Berlin
