Summary
Frank Lechner, John Boli: World Culture
The book explores the development, content and influence of world culture. Combining the two most prominent theoretical perspectives on world culture - world order and globalization theory - this book traces the development of world culture from the middle of the 19th century to the present day. It illustrates key issues and empirical research, discusses the impact of history on the development of world culture, and assesses the complex impact of world culture on people, organizations, and societies.
This is a provocative, synthetic, and well-grounded interpretation of world culture, which is essential for every student and scholar dealing with globalization and world affairs.
