General description and relevant information This is a course entirely delivered in English and it has a reflexive tone. It is focused in the discussions about the globalization of culture and its social impact. The subject proposes a theoretical approach to concepts such as ‘liquid society’, ‘postmodernity’, ‘transnational’ or ‘cosmopolitism’. The student should develop a work on readings and be able to analyze cultural products (cinema, television, etc.) using the concepts and authors explained in class. This is a subject specially addressed to students with research aims in the fields of culture and the media, with an international scope.
