Imaginarios Etnomusicales de la Globalización Por Héctor Villarreal Número 44 Introducción A partir de la implosión de la Unión Soviética en 1991, la apertura al capitalismo en los países de Europa Oriental y el fin del Pacto de Varsovia, terminó la bipolaridad de las relaciones internacionales. Fue entonces cuando comenzó a hablarse de globalización para hacer referencia a un nuevo orden mundial —unipolar— en el que Estados Unidos, la mayor potencia militar y económica, encontraría cada vez menos resistencias para establecer o mantener su hegemonía manifiesta en el creciente número de países con economía de mercado y gobiernos formalmente democráticos. Desde entonces globalización es cada vez más una palabra polisémica y un concepto polivalente y equívoco, debido a que múltiples y diversos fenómenos se presentaron simultáneamente y de manera relacionada a la configuración del nuevo orden internacional. La globalización de facto implica que el nuevo orden político y económico se infraestructura sobre el desarrollo tecnológico de las telecomunicaciones, lo cual ha posibilitado que flujos informativos vayan y vengan de cualquier punto del planeta a otro, por lo que se dice coloquialmente y de manera figurada que se han acortado las distancias y los tiempos.

  • Ingenuity and Imagination How International Performing Arts Venues Are Opening Their Doors
    July 2021 ® ON Stagevolume 10 • issue 12 Ingenuity and Imagination How international performing arts venues are opening their doors Chairman’s Note Is there a glimmer of hope that we are gradually returning to normalcy and the prophets of doom, who predict all sorts of dire consequences including a third wave, a new strain of the virus and a permanent blow to our lifestyle, are all proved wrong? History seems to suggest that after every major catastrophe, people do return to their normal way of life. That is the nature of fellow human beings and they fight back furiously when outside influences attack their way of living. I hope and pray this is so with the present situation also. The signs are good. Europe is leisurely returning to regular performances and the sight of the huge crowd at the recent French Open tennis tournament warmed the cockles of my heart. I am sure that with the innovative minds of art lovers, ways will be found to ensure that we are not deprived any longer of our dose of artistic performances. The NCPA will make every attempt to return to its normally welcoming ways and I do hope that all of you will adhere to the norms and conditions that are set to attend major performances. I believe that this occasion will surely come our way sooner rather than later. Say a little prayer for us. Khushroo N. Suntook NCPA Chairman Khushroo N.
