Café Culture is an ethnographic snapshot, taken in 2008, tracing the effects of globalization from the perspective of young middle class urbanites in post-liberalization Pune, India. Documenting with meticulous detail their life world, from clothing to hanging out, friendship, dating, education and marriage, it captures new forms of socializing, consumption, self-improvement and relationship-management. In their practices the young café culture generation is seen to be simultaneously domesticating "the global" and transcending "the local".
