The Korean Wave (eBook, ePUB)

Korean Media Go Global
Redaktion: Kim, Youna

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This edited collection considers the Korean Wave in a global digital age and addresses the social, cultural and political implications in their complexity and paradox within the contexts of global inequalities and uneven power structures and argues for the Korean Wave's double capacity in the creation of new and complex spaces of identity that are both enabling and disabling cultural diversity in a digital cosmopolitan world.
