| Subject Overview: |
The aim of this course is to focus on globalisation and culture. As a theoretical starting point to understand global cultural processes today, the course introduces Cultural Studies theories and the topics that have contributed to its formation and development. In focus for the course is an analysis of the relationship between globalisation processes and contemporary cultural changes, which also include a discussion on how cultural changes affect societies throughout the world. In connection to cultural changes, we will discuss so-called post-colonial theories. |
