摘要:There is a strong presumption by many that first satellite TV in the 1990s and now the
Internet in the new millennium has begun to strongly globalize people’s identities. However,
many questions lurk behind this surface of apparent change. What is truly easily
available to people, not only in physical access, but also in terms of effective access to
understand or enjoy? How many new information and entertainment sources are truly
global, versus transnational, national, regional and local? What are people actually
choosing to read and watch amongst all these new options?
