The cultural scholar Manuel Valenzuela examines the border as a central location of transcultural shifts under the conditions of globalization. He is concerned with cultural disjunctions, linguistic, ethnic and gender-specific shifts in meaning, as well as gestures of resistance and innovation arising from the blend of tradition and permanent reorientation.

Discussion partner: Ludger Pries, Professor for Sociology, Ruhr University Bochum

Author: Haus der Kulturen der Welt / House of World Cultures
