Intercultural and institutional sociology. Attempts at integration within the information society

Abstract

In a global modernity, individuals and communities from different parts of the world are now able to build new models and aspirations at the same time thanks to the opportunities offered by new communication tools that constantly provide resources for the definition of individual and collective identity. What we call "globalization" today is mainly characterized by machines: industries, institutions, ideas, images, news and values ​​have developed around the new technologies. The media-migration relationship is today one of the possible keys to scientifically interpreting modernity, as it interpenetrates much of the contemporary characterization of sociality, of the traditional boundaries within which we manage memberships and differences.
