{"product_id":"globalization-and-cultural-trends-in-kang-liu-9780824827595","title":"Globalization and Cultural Trends in China","description":"In this timely work, Liu Kang argues that globalization in China is both a historical condition in which the country's gaige kaifang (reform and opening up) has unfolded and a set of values or ideologies by which it and the rest of the globe are judged. Moreover, globalization signals a significant ascendancy of culture. Liu examines China's current ideological struggles in political discourse, intellectual debate, popular culture, avant-garde literature, the news media, and the internet. With careful textual analysis and observation informed by critical theories and cultural studies, he offers a forceful critique of the Chinese version of globalism that privileges economic development at the expense of social justice and equality.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kang Liu\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0824827597\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780824827595\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Hawaii Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/31\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 222\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.96h x 6.14w x 0.60d","brand":"Kang Liu","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47199898927359,"sku":"9780824827595","price":31.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8373d418-8cb3-412e-b4bd-d5fbf0e36da2.jpg?v=1756785512","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/globalization-and-cultural-trends-in-kang-liu-9780824827595","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
