全球化的批评者和支持者都倾向于认为，这是一个统一的过程，会导致文化地形的扁平化。相比之下，本文以非洲、印度尼西亚、马来西亚、日本和加拿大为例，展示了传统文化习俗与现代传播形式之间更为复杂的相互作用。新的信息技术使人们能够普遍获得真实的本地声音。历史上，保存社会和文化习俗一直是博物馆、大学以及歌曲和诗歌口头传统的业务。新的信息技术提供了文化的连续性和反身性：它们通过超文本、网页和普遍访问，以最低的成本使社会和文化实践的常规存档成为可能。经常被讨论的“文化全球化”需要重新考虑这种被高度忽视的本土文化存档能力。本文试图提供这样一种重构。
Both critics and proponents of globalisation tend to assume that it is a uniform process leading to a flattening of the cultural terrain. In contrast, this paper, using examples from Africa, Indonesia, Malaysia, Japan and Canada, demonstrates a more complex interaction between traditional cultural practices and modern communication forms. The new information technologies enable universal access to authentic local voice. Archiving social and cultural practices has historically been the business of museums, universities, and indeed oral traditions of song and poetry. New information technologies provide for cultural continuities and reflexivities: they enable the routine archiving of social and cultural practice at a minimal cost through hypertext, Web pages and universal access. The “globalisation of culture”, so often discussed, needs to be reframed with reference to this highly overlooked indigenous capability to archive own culture. This paper attempts to provide such a reframing.
