The Logics of Globalization Case Studies in

This book presents the theoretical language and methodological tools needed for thinking through issues of global media representation. It brings students into a conversation about global culture and communication through the presentation of a conceptual language to discuss the "logics of globalization" (i.e., nationalism, modernism, postmodernism/colonialism, capitalism, and terrorism). Anandam Kavoori uses this language to critically interrogate various media texts.

Anandam Kavoori is associate professor in the Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication at the University of Georgia, Athens.
