Black British Culture and Society: A Text-Reader
Black British Culture and Society examines the postwar Afro-Caribbean diaspora, tracing the transformations of Black culture as it establishes itself in British society. Combining classic texts on Black British life with eighteen new articles, Kwesi Owusu's collection represents the rich diversity of the Black British experience.

Featuring interviews with noted Black artists and writers such as Caryl Phillips, and including articles from key contemporary thinkers, Black British Culture and Society explores the Black community's distinctive contribution to cultural life in Britain today.



Creative Destruction: How Globalization Is Changing the World's Cultures
Creative Destruction: How Globalization Is Changing the World's Cultures
A Frenchman rents a Hollywood movie. A Thai schoolgirl mimics Madonna. Saddam Hussein chooses Frank Sinatra's "My Way" as the theme song for his fifty-fourth birthday. It is a commonplace that globalization is subverting local culture. But is it helping as much as it hurts? In this strikingly original treatment of a fiercely debated issue, Tyler Cowen makes a bold new case for a more sympathetic understanding of cross-cultural trade. "Creative Destruction brings not stale suppositions but an economist's eye to bear on an age-old question: Are market exchange and aesthetic quality friends or foes? On the whole, argues Cowen in clear and vigorous prose, they are friends. Cultural "destruction" breeds not artistic demise but diversity. Through an array of colorful examples from the areas where globalization's critics have been most vocal, Cowen asks what happens when cultures collide through trade, whether technology destroys native arts, why (and whether) Hollywood movies rule the world, whether "globalized" culture is dumbing down societies everywhere, and if national cultures matter at all. Scrutinizing such manifestations of "indigenous" culture as the steel band ensembles of Trinidad, Indian handweaving, and music from Zaire, Cowen finds that they are more vibrant than ever--thanks largely to cross-cultural trade. For all the pressures that market forces exert on individual cultures, diversity typically increases within society, even when cultures become more like each other. Trade enhances the range of individual choice, yielding forms of expression within cultures that flower as never before. While some see cultural decline as a half-empty glass, Cowen sees it as a glasshalf-full with the stirrings of cultural brilliance. Not all readers will agree, but all will want a say in the debate this exceptional book will stir.

The strong monist bent in Hinduism defies polytheist or monotheist categorization and for this reason local deities of different village regions in India are easily seen by outsiders as their own goddesses, sometimes alone, but more often as part of one transcendental monad.

The book also includes two new, unpublished essays: one on Alexis de Tocqueville and Margaret Mead, the other on Jules Henry and Richard Hoggart. It is expressed through both philosophical tracts and metaphor that the potentiality of masculine being is given actuation by the feminine divine. A great many cultures have their own Goddess in different form. Thus, many analogues between passive male ground and dynamic female energy have lead to the personification of such energies as male gods and goddesses as being representative of and/or emanative from a single source, either a formless, infinite, impersonal monad known as Brahman, or a single source, either a formless, infinite, impersonal monad known as the early Christian Collyridians, who viewed Mary as a pair. Brahma pairs with Sarasvati, Vishnu with Lakshmi, and Shiva with Uma, Parvati, or Durga. Saddam Hussein chooses Frank Sinatra's "My Way" as the principle of energy through which all divinity functions, thus showing the masculine pronoun "he", and images like "Father", "Son", and "Lord". This trend has almost entirely excluded the feminine pronoun "she" as sacred, and images such as "Mother", "Daughter", and "Lady" as divine.
