Global cultural Studies

“Decolonizing our minds means, among other things, resisting global pressures to think and act as individual selves: each separate from the other, each an industrial eater who has little or no connection with the soil on which s/he stands; each the owner of a mind which is wither text or screen…” - Gustavo Esteva and Madhu Suri Prakash

Global Cultural Studies examines the impact of colonialism and globalization on forms of cultural production and representation, transnational cultural relationships, and the formation of local and global identities.
