"Culture is created and preserved mainly by communication. And for decades, communication has circulated mostly within the borders of countries – helping to create strong national cultures ... now consumers everywhere have to make sense of the world vis-à-vis Hollywood and Bollywood, CNN and al-Jazeera, hip-hop and Sufi music."
