Description

Explore the complex relationship between modernization and identity in this academic work from Routledge. As many non-Western societies undergo rapid change, the tension between Westernization and indigenous values becomes a central theme of social development. This book examines how Asian nations attempt to balance progress with local authenticity. Readers will find a deep analysis of how societies use concepts like 'Asian values' or 'Chinese characteristics' to define their place in a modern world. It investigates the historical efforts to prevent the loss of local culture while navigating the pressures of global influence. This text provides a necessary look at how national variants of modernity are constructed and maintained in the face of foreign domination and cultural shifts. Ideal for students and professionals in anthropology and sociology, this volume offers a clear perspective on the social sciences within the Asian context. It addresses the ways in which local essence is used to shape modern citizenship and national identity.
