Os jovens crescem neste ambiente saturado pelos media e cultura digital e são os mais permeáveis ao consumo e apropriação dos novos media. A tese de Doutoramento que aqui apresentamos no âmbito dos Estudos Culturais desenvolveu-se neste contexto. A investigação realizada teve como objetivos gerais compreender o fenómeno da globalização cultural nas vivências dos jovens portugueses em interação com os novos media, e perceber qual o impacto deste fenómeno no processo de construção identitária destes jovens. Foi realizado um estudo de caso com jovens portugueses com 15, 16 e 17 anos de idade nas três escolas públicas, do ensino básico e secundário, existentes na cidade e concelho de São João da Madeira no distrito de Aveiro, Portugal, sendo a proveniência geográfica destes jovens alargada ao concelho de Santa Maria da Feira, ambos integrados na Área Metropolitana do Porto. Realizaram-se 283 questionários eletrónicos e 15 entrevistas em formato de focus groups com um total de 57 jovens participantes, implementados durante o ano de 2016. Desenvolveu-se uma análise em profundidade dos dados obtidos com recurso à estatística descritiva e análise de conteúdo qualitativa. Os resultados obtidos mostram que a posse de tecnologias digitais é transversal a todos os inquiridos e que estes interagem com os novos media - a televisão, a Internet, e os jogos de vídeo - de forma rotineira e por tempo considerável. Estas tecnologias permitem aos jovens maior autonomia e liberdade nas suas escolhas e no modo de consumo, assim como na forma como interagem no grupo a que pertencem, verificando-se que as atividades mediáticas mais populares são ver séries televisivas e filmes, ver vídeos no YouTube, estar nas redes sociais e jogar jogos de vídeo. Os resultados indicam que os jovens têm preferência por produtos culturais mediáticos em língua inglesa onde as representações culturais quer em relação à família, ao ser adolescente, às tradições, aos costumes e aos valores são, na sua maioria, originárias e relativas aos Estados Unidos da América. Constata-se, assim, que os jovens estão sujeitos à força dos desequilíbrios globais nos fluxos culturais do mundo digital, e evidenciam-se a influência e o impacto destas representações no estilo de vida dos jovens, na relação com os outros e consigo próprio, nos seus sonhos, e nas suas perceções sobre outras culturas. O empoderamento dos jovens pela apropriação dos novos media e que se repercute nas suas escolhas individuais leva também a que se vislumbrem, em alguns deles, laivos de identidade intercultural que, segundo os próprios, foram os novos media que os ajudaram a construir. keywords Cultural globalisation, intercultural identity, cultural representations, the impact of new media, generation Z abstract In a constantly changing world, where the networked society prevails due to digital globalisation, we are witnessing the internationalisation of the market of dreams and images through Internet-based technologies and the tools that have emerged with Web 2.0. Young people grow up in this environment saturated by the media and digital culture being the most permeable to the consumption and appropriation of new media. The thesis presented here in the field of Cultural Studies was developed in this context. The aims of this study were to understand the phenomenon of cultural globalisation in the experiences of young Portuguese people in interaction with the new media, and to understand the impact of this phenomenon on the process of identity construction of these adolescents. A case study was carried out with young Portuguese aged 15, 16 and 17 years old in the three public (basic and secondary) schools which exist in the city and municipality of São João da Madeira in the district of Aveiro, Portugal, while the geographical origin of these students extended to the municipality of Santa Maria da Feira, both integrated in the Porto Metropolitan Area. An online questionnaire and focus group interviews were administered during 2016, and a total of 283 questionnaires and 15 interviews with a total of 57 young participants were subsequently analysed, using descriptive statistics and qualitative content analysis. The results showed that the possession of technologies is transversal to all respondents and that these interact with the new media - television, the Internet, and video games - on a routine basis and for a considerable amount of time. We found that digital technology allows them greater autonomy and freedom in their choices and in the mode of consumption, as well as in the way they interact in the group they belong to, and that the most popular media activities are watching TV series and films, watching videos on YouTube, being on social media and playing video games. The results also indicated that young people tend to choose cultural media products in the English language where cultural representations both in relation to family, being a teenager, traditions, customs and values are, for the most part, from the United States of America. Thus it emerged that teens are subject to the force of global imbalances in the cultural flows of the digital world, and it became evident that these representations have an influence and an impact on young people's lifestyles, their relationships with others and with themselves, their aspirations, and their perceptions about other cultures. The empowerment of young people through the appropriation of new media and the impact of this on their individual choices also allowed us to glimpses of an intercultural identity that, according to them, the new media had helped to build.

    ‘LOVE’S CHRISTMAS JOURNEY’ CAST BIOS SEAN ASTIN (Mayor William Wayne) – Sean Astin is one of Hollywood's most respected young actors with a distinctive list of projects and credits. Astin starred as beloved Sam Gamgee in the Academy Award®-winning "The Lord of the Rings Trilogy." The three films have grossed over $3 billion worldwide and have entered the history books of classic cinema. Astin has just recently signed up for Nickelodeon‟s re-launch of “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.” He will lend his voice to Raphael in the latest animated incarnation of the hugely successful franchise which premieres in fall 2012. Currently, he is lending his voice to Playhouse Disney‟s “Special Agent Oso.” Astin stars as a lovable, bumbling special agent-in-training who enlists viewers at home to help complete his missions. Premiering fall 2011, Astin heads an all star cast in “And They‟re Off,” an independent comedy about thoroughbred horseracing that also stars Kevin Nealon, Cheri Oteri and Martin Mull. Astin also has two other comedies in the can: “Stay Cool” about an older man‟s homecoming whose cast includes Winona Ryder, Chevy Chase, Hillary Duff and more, and “Demoted” in which Astin plays a mean-spirited prank whose victim becomes his boss. Adding to his seemingly boundless list of occupations, Astin released his acting memoir titled There and Back Again: An Actor's Tale. The book opened at #1 on the New York Times Best- seller list, putting him on the map as a true literary story-teller as well as the unabashed screen actor audiences fall in love with again and again.
