17. MEDIA, GLOBALIZATION AND HYBRIDIZATION
ØSeveral reason explain the analytical shift from cultural imperialism to
globalization.
üFirst the end of the cold war as a global framework for ideological,
geopolitical and economic competitions called for a rethinking of the
analytical categories and paradigms of thought.
• By giving rise to the united state as sole superpower and at the same time
making the world more fragment, the end of cold war ushered in an era of
complexity between global forces of cohesion and local reaction of dispersal.
• In this complex era, the nation state was no longer the sole or dominant
player, since transnational transaction occurred on subnational, national, and
supranational levels.
18. • Conceptually, globalizations appeared to capture this complexity better than
cultural imperialism.
ü Second, according to John Tomlinson (1991), globalization replace cultural
imperialism because it conveyed the process with less coherence and
direction, which weakened the cultural unity of all nation states, not only does
in the developing world.
• Finally, globalization emerged as a key perspective across the humanities
and social sciences, a current undoubtedly affecting the discipline of
communication.
