Asian Perspectives on Digital Culture Emerging Phenomena, Enduring Concepts


Free Download Sun Sun Lim, Cheryll Soriano, Daya Thussu, "Asian Perspectives on Digital Culture: Emerging Phenomena, Enduring Concepts"
English | 2018 | pages: 225 | ISBN: 1138598003, 113884232X | PDF | 2,3 mb
In Asia, amidst its varied levels of economic development and diverse cultural traditions and political regimes, the Internet and mobile communications are increasingly used in every aspect of life. Yet the analytical frames used to understand the impact of digital media on Asia predominantly originate from the Global North, neither rooted in Asia’s rich philosophical traditions, nor reflective of the sociocultural practices of this dynamic region. This volume examines digital phenomena and its impact on Asia by drawing on specifically Asian perspectives. Contributors apply a variety of Asian theoretical frameworks including guanxi, face, qing, dharma and karma. With chapters focusing on emerging digital trends in China, Hong Kong, India, Japan, Korea, Philippines, Singapore, and Taiwan, the book presents compelling and diverse research on identity and selfhood, spirituality, social networking, corporate image, and national identity as shaped by and articulated through digital communication platforms.
