  • Someremarks Concerning the Concept of Glocalization
    Public Reason 5 (1): 69-86 © 2013 by Public Reason Some Remarks Concerning the Concept of Glocalization Viorel Vizureanu Romanian Academy, Iaşi Branch1 Abstract. The present study is aimed to scan the explanatory relevance of the concept of glocalization in some seminal works of George Ritzer. In the first instance, we will try to relate the manner in which Ritzer understands glocalization to the uses of other authors or other related concepts of the cultural globalization theory (hybridization, creolization, scapes). On this occasion, we will reveal the (partially “hidden”) cultural and philosophical assumptions, underlying Ritzer’s use of this concept: the understanding of the individual, mainly seen as a rational agent, as well as the positive value attributed to the postmodern type of cultural mixture. We will further argue that, despite its intentions, the manner in which Ritzer defines glocalization is in fact very close to a homogenized conception of globalization. In addition, we will show that Ritzer eludes the explanatory dimension of glocalization (much less the critical one), in favor of a descriptive stance, excessively used. We will give also a critical analysis of the way in which Ritzer attempts to enrich the explanatory quality of glocalization by linking it with a new concept that he elaborated, the grobalization. In the end, we would like to connect Ritzer’s concept of glocalization with a social/sociological model exposed by the French sociologist Alain Touraine, hoping to better clarify the mentioned problems.

  • A Challenge for German and Culture Studies
    ziemlich fremd vorkommen mag, jedoch im optimalen Fall die Zukunft dominieren wird. Trotzdem erscheinen mir seine durchaus optimistischen, ironischen Worte geeignet, sie uns allen, die wir am Netzwerken sind, um Auslandsgermanistiken in einem globaler angelegten German–Studies–Projekt miteinander zu verbinden und zukünftige Zusammenarbeit weltweit sichern zu können, mit auf den Weg zu geben. Er meint: Stößt man bei irgendeiner dieser Tätigkeiten auf Schwierigkeit, so lässt man die Sache einfach stehen; denn man findet eine andre Sache oder gelegentlich einen besseren Weg, oder ein andrer findet den Weg, den man verfehlt hat; das schadet gar nichts, während durch nichts so viel von der gemeinsamen Kraft verschleudert wird wie durch die Anmaßung, dass man berufen sei, ein bestimmtes persönliches Ziel nicht locker zu lassen. In einem von Kräften durchflossenen Gemeinwesen führt jeder Weg an ein gutes Ziel, wenn man nicht zu lange zaudert und überlegt. (Musil I, 31) Europe: A Challenge for German and Culture Studies Peter Hanenberg Universidade Católica Portuguesa, Research Center for Communication and Culture, Lisbon The history of German Studies is intimately related to the national movement in the nineteenth century. German Studies arose in history as a means of founding and securing the notion of the nation – and thus to overcome a certain political and cultural stagnation felt by the intellectuals after the Vienna Congress and – please allow me this strange parallelism – after Goethe's death in 1832. Immermann's Epigonen and Ernst Willkomm's Die Europamüden are two examples of a culture searching for its path. When Georg Friedrich Benecke, Karl Lachmann, and the Brothers Grimm started their devotion to and research on German culture, they did not just start from a German perspective, but instead situated their work in the context of the classical heritage and, in the case of Benecke, for example, in the context of other European literatures.

    WHANAUNGATANGA (C OLLECTIVE RESPONSIBILITY ) AND GLOBAL JUSTICE WHANAUNGATANGA (C OLLECTIVE RESPONSIBILITY ) AND GLOBAL JUSTICE Pahmi Winter The University of Waikato Hamilton, New Zealand My research project into incipient (hidden) homelessness in Hamilton New Zealand, a city with a population of 140,000, involved using focus groups with people who had gone to voluntary social service agencies, mainly for food bank access and assistance with accommodation. One interesting feature highlighted by the focus group process was that although all participants were experiencing the stresses of poverty, some seemed more resiliant than others. Those that seemed better able to cope with the strain were people who identified with their Maori heritage and cultural values (Maori are the indigenous people of New Zealand and constitute 14% of the population). While there will be a number of causal factors, there is one in particular worth noting by those interested in global justice and building less selfish societies because it is a principle that fosters ontological security and socially and ecologically sustainable communities. Maori in the focus groups did not seem to experience the withering of the spirit poverty clearly caused for other participants. The resilience of many Maori in coping with poverty is due, in large part, to the fact that they don’t experience the same degree of feeling socially excluded and isolated, despite their subaltern status within New Zealand society. I attribute this high degree of ontological security to a core principle of social organization in Maori culture. This is a principle of ethical duty and moral proximity called whanaungatanga, which engenders a deep sense of connectedness and mutual responsibility.
