SUMMARY:CIRS Lunch Talk: Masterclass with Professor Arjun Appadurai on "Global Cultural Flows"
DESCRIPTION:In the 1990’s\, the world began to see a massive growth in transnational traffic in images\, ideologies and commodities\, a process which popularized the term globalization. Today\, almost four decades later\, the world order is multipolar\, highly unstable and full of obstacles to free cultural flows. How can we interpret these changes? \n\nHosted by CIRS\, in collaboration with the Indian Ocean Studies Working Group\, this masterclass brings together scholars and students for an engaging discussion on the dynamics of globalization and cultural movement. Renowned anthropologist Arjun Appadurai will reflect on how people\, objects\, and ideas circulate across borders\, and how imagination\, media\, and markets shape these flows. Drawing on his influential works Modernity at Large\, The Social Life of Things\, Fear of Small Numbers\, and Banking on Words Professor Appadurai will offer a framework for understanding disjuncture\, modernity and power in the present moment.
