Globalization of Modernity and Iran (Persian Edition) [Persian]

By Ata Hoodashtian

This book studies the concepts of Modernity and Globalization. It describes how the modern western world functions, internally and externally; how it began; how it relates to the rest of the world; and what effect this has culturally on non-Western countries. One of the subjects studied in this book is "The hypothesis of the situation of historical non-return" which proposes that the spread of Western civilization, and in consequence the worldwide presence of modernity through the development of technology, commerce and communications, is the basis of historical situations from which any possibility of a return to the past has been removed. If modernity brings a situation of historical non-return it can be characterized asongoing. Therefore globalization is not entirely commercial.Faced with discussions about the globalization of commerce, often reinforced byexperts in the field and by the media, we would stress the importance of theglobalization of modernity. Beyond the economic considerations which reduceglobalization to a logic of market economy - admittedly true and without precedent -our objective consists in developing the idea that in the globalization of modernitycommerce is only one of the factors.
