- Inhalt:
- The term globalization started its rise at the end of the 1980s and had become part of quotidian discourse by the turn of the century. However, while phrases such as “globalized world”, “globalized economy”, and “globalized culture” now appear to no longer demand explanation, no consensus exists on what globalization means or does exactly. It is thought, for example, that the phenomenon is 10,000, 500, or 30 years old, and that it either does or does not make the nation-state redundant. It is thought to involve economy, politics, and culture, but there is no agreement on how they connect and which organizes the others. In the cultural realm, pessimism about globalization’s homogenizing effects co-exists alongside optimism about heterogeneity and circulation. In this course, we aim to demystify the term globalization and examine the way in which it interacts with literary and cinematic production. We ask how globalization relates to terms such as internationalism, imperialism, and universalism, and to postmodernism and postcolonialism. We discuss how it relates to transportation, digitalization, and to specific economic systems, and discuss in how far the term can be said to refer to an actual phenomenon. Finally, we examine how globalization is thought to interact with the cultural realm: Can we speak of a global plot, form, novel/film, or language, and what does it mean to do so?
