Consuming Cultures

Globalization and Local Lives

The hurtling speed of the global market knows no cultural boundaries. Languages, customs, rituals and myths--the building-blocks of local culture and identity--are swept aside with the global market's promise of security and prosperity.

[ILLUSTRATION OMITTED]

Is this promise false? Is the survival of pockets of local culture true resistance? Can communities reclaim the value of local cultural identity?

Harnessing moving personal testimonies of cultural loss and resistance, Seabrook embarks upon a wide-ranging and sensitive exploration of the battleground between local and global.
