13 December 2005too rosy of a picture
I am going to quote Aihwa Ong - Antrhopology Professor from UC Berkeley who criticized \"Modernity at Large\" since I cannot state it any better than her: \"When an approach to cultural globalization seeks merely to sketch out universalizing trends rather than deal with actually existing structures of power and situated cultural processes, the analysis cries out for a sense of political economy and situated ethnography.
