The Politics and Culture of Globalisation India and Australia

Description

We experience the culture of globalisation every time we visit a Tandoori restaurant in Chicago or a Pizza Hut in Hyderabad or as we watch Bollywood films in Australia. Globalisation is a label used for a wide range of political social and cultural phenomena many of which are explored in this volume. The Politics and Culture of Globalisation: India and Australia brings together Indian and Australian experts in the fields of political science international relations philosophy cultural theory and political economy. Its timeliness and unifying theme derive from comparisons between Indian and Australian perspectives and analyses by Australian writers on developments in India. Indian-Australian relations are explored in several chapters. The neo-liberal form of globalisation is a key focus of critique in this volume. Several chapters examine the search for alternative forms of governance as the nation-state undergoes profound change due to global interconnectedness. | The Politics and Culture of Globalisation India and Australia
