The Communication Imperative in an Era of Globalization: Beyond Conflict-Conditioned Communication
GMJ: Mediterranean Edition 2(1) Spring 2007 63 The Communication Imperative in an Era of Globalization: Beyond Conflict-Conditioned Communication Harry Anastasiou Introduction The idea that a nation, an ethnic group, a class, or a society can protect itself or refrain from communicative interactions with other nations, ethnic groups, classes or societies is no longer tenable. The emerging complex conditions of globalization wrought by modern technology are rapidly affecting a global implosion by which historically distinctive people, cultures, values, religions, identities, civilizations and their respective socio-economic and political structures inadvertently come into increasing contact with each other (Ellul, 1980; Falk, 1999; Castells, 2000). Diverse people and cultures are rapidly confronted with the fact or the prospect that they will inevitably encounter, mix, overlap, and conflate at various levels with “the others”, despite their preferences or wishes. Under these conditions, communicating effectively and meaningfully across national, ethnic, religious, cultural, and class lines is no longer a matter of choice but an imperative of life in the emerging post-modern world. According to Bohm (2004), while the electronic mass media integrate the world’s mass communication networks, the world is confronted with a communication crisis. An essential component of this crisis is that the matrix of on-going international, inter-religious, inter-ethnic, and likely inter- civilization conflicts has effectively eroded the conditions for effective and meaningful communication. The simultaneous and instantaneous electronic transference of information does not suffice for meaningful communication, as communication breakdown occurs despite the high efficiency of the electronic media world. The particular manner in which conflict impacts inter-group communication thus warrants attention. -

New Zealand meets South Korea: Strategies for film co-productions between two countries A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Screen and Media Studies Department at The University of Waikato by JuHee Kim Year of submission 2017 Abstract This study investigates the state of international film co-productions between New Zealand and South Korea and whether such co-productions are possible, and if so, which modes or types of film co-productions are likely to succeed. The study is framed in the context of the two countries as well as the rapidly changing global marketplace. Increasingly, international film co-productions have gained importance in the film industry paralleling a growing tendency towards cross- border filmmaking. However, the phenomenon of international film co- productions, specifically between New Zealand and South Korea, has not been fully investigated to date. -
