From tribalism to globalization: some problems and challenges
Abstract
In this article, we discuss the profound changes in the permeability of cultural boundaries that are occurring due to the explosive increase in the pace, scope and variety of cultural exchange and the global diffusion of technologies which can be at once culturally homogenizing or hybridizing. The changing links between culture and territory and the continued capacity of ethno-cultural groups and national states to provide a sense of place and belonging are discussed.
