摘要:This paper in its contribution to the debate on how globalization impinge on culture, envisions a techno-cultural political economy. It argues that it is a priori analytically more helpful seeing culture and technology as domains not separable from politics and economics in the analysis of globalism. The sociological implication of globalisation for both nations and their nationals, it posits, is that both are categorised according to the place they occupy in the production process in the techno-cultural economy, either as producers, or consumers. Finally, the paper concluded by noting that developing nations` engagement with globalisation has the prepotency to displace them from the developmental landscape upon which their civilization was to be built.
