Globalization
Key Concepts:
> Define each key concept
● Change: is the result of an action or a thought and is not always positive,
change does not equal progress
● Cosmopolitanism: Global outlook emerging in response to increasing
globalization, every nation is influenced by others
• Example: everyone can be involved in this (watching the film
parasite--makes you a part of the global community)
• Is a perspective contrasting to cultural imperialism and
ethnonationalism and it's about feeling like a global citizen rather
than a citizen of your own country
● Cultural imperialism: Seeing the world through western lens
● Deterritorialization: Before globalization, culture was tied with the place.
Culture would stay where the group lived. Fewer people moved around
● Economic migrant: people relocating for a small period of time to solely
focus on working to earn some kind of monetary reward
● Globalization: intensification of worldwide social relations linking distant
localities in such a way that local happenings are shaped by events
occurring many miles away and vice versa
• Example: Music is becoming interconnected; food + art; trading
products; Tai chi in toronto
● Isolationism: a state or process in which persons, groups, or cultures lose or
do not have communication or cooperation with one another, often
resulting in open conflict
● Macro level: Refers to large scale or large groups (state level)
● Micro level: Refers to small scale or individual groups (local level)
● Modernization: describes political, economic and social change.
A product of modernization is the increased flow of capital and
goods across the world
, ● Multi-sited ethnography: How the practice of fieldwork has changed
• Anthropologists are embarking on multi-site ethnographic
studies, where the focus is not on one geographic location
but a number of sites that share a common group of people,
task or ideology
• Another change is they are focusing their research on the
virtual world
● Progress: usually suggests a positive development, a gradual move towards
achieving a
goal or reaching a higher standard.
Ethnographic Examples:
>Describe each ethnographic example
,>Identify which concepts are relevant to the
example Textbook:
● Skolt Lapps
● Rana Plaza in Bangladesh
• A sweatshop in bangladesh that was built (illegally and without
meeting minimum requirements)
• Companies such as Joe Fresh employed workers here (in order to
get cheaper labour)
• Eventually, it collapsed due to a bad building foundation and it
amounted in several tragedies and the loss of many workers
lives
• Terrible working conditions and the monetary reward was minimal
● Nagy+ Qatar
● International Adoption
● Abu-Lughod+ Arab Spring
● Murray+ Development projects
● Walsh+ ecotourism / mining
● Boellstorff+ virtual
