{"product_id":"imagined-globalization-nstor-garca-canclini-9780822354734","title":"Imagined Globalization","description":"A leading figure in cultural studies worldwide, N駸tor Garc僘 Canclini is a Latin American thinker who has consistently sought to understand the impact of globalization on the relations between Latin America, Europe, and the United States, and among Latin American countries. In this book, newly available in English, he considers how globalization is imagined by artists, academics, migrants, and entrepreneurs, all of whom traverse boundaries and, at times, engage in conflicted or negotiated multicultural interactions.\u003cp\u003eGarc僘 Canclini contrasts the imaginaries of previous migrants to the Americas with those who live in transnational circuits today. He integrates metaphor and narrative, working through philosophical, anthropological, and socioeconomically grounded interpretations of art, literature, crafts, media, and other forms of expression toward his conclusion that globalization is, in important ways, a collection of heterogeneous narratives. Garc僘 Canclini advocates global imaginaries that generate new strategies for dealing with contingency and produce new forms of citizenship oriented toward multiple social configurations rather than homogenization. This edition of \u003ci\u003eImagined Globalization\u003c\/i\u003e includes a significant new introduction by George Y棈ice and an interview in which the cultural theorist Toby Miller and Garc僘 Canclini touch on events including the Arab Spring and Occupy Wall Street.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e N駸tor Garc僘 Canclini\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 082235473X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780822354734\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Duke University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/21\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.70h x 6.00w x 0.70d","brand":"N駸tor Garc僘 Canclini","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43926537437439,"sku":"9780822354734","price":27.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_1ba01dc9-3924-4471-b5ef-f182e4ff78c3.jpg?v=1681083619","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/imagined-globalization-nstor-garca-canclini-9780822354734","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
