Appadurai here presents a theory of globalization, and suggests ways that other researchers can follow up on his ideas. Many of them continue to do so. For anthropologists, the book offered new ways of thinking about how communities are affected by globalization. For other social scientists, its theories about the importance of culture and identity in a globalized world inspired new directions in studying the present. Modernity at Large challenges the idea that globalization inevitably leads to everywhere becoming the same: Appadurai argues that it also produces new and different ways of life.  aMass media--Social aspectsvCivilization, Modern CulturevEthnicity  2ddccBK  00104070aNASSDOCbNASSDOCd2019-03-25eOPi2019-03-25l0o306 EVR-Ap50350r2019-08-28 00:00:00w2019-03-25yBK
