Description
Networks: The Evolving Aspects of Culture in the 21st Century by Biserka Cvjetičanin is a cultural studies and policy-oriented academic work that examines the changing dynamics of culture in a globalised world.
The book explores how cultural development, policy-making, intercultural communication, and international cooperation are being reshaped through increasingly complex global networks. Drawing on the work of Culturelink—an initiative associated with UNESCO and the Council of Europe—the text reflects on two decades of research into cultural development and networking practices. It analyses how cultural exchange operates across borders in the 21st century, highlighting the role of institutions, policy frameworks, and digital and social networks in shaping contemporary cultural interaction. The work situates culture not as a static national concept, but as an evolving system influenced by global connectivity and institutional collaboration.
Networks: The Evolving Aspects of Culture in the 21st Century is suited to readers interested in cultural policy, international relations, and contemporary cultural theory.
