Review
"Scott Lash and Celia Lury reconceptualize our understanding of cultural industries in the context of globalization. By analysing and documenting the shift from representation to objects in contemporary production of meaning, they open new avenues for research on communication and culture: things materialize our imaginary, we communicate through objects. This pathbreaking study will stimulate the intellectual debate for years to come." Manuel Castells, University of Southern California, Los Angeles "Scott Lash and Celia Lury throw down the gauntlet to liberal and Marxist economic and cultural theory. They discover meaning-making at the centre of both production and consumption. Totems rule the marketplace, and popular culture generates, displaces and energizes iconic brands. The circulation of economic value has become a conversation between symbolic things. Deeply researched and theoretically sophisticated, Global Culture Industry is an important book." Jeffrey Alexander, Yale University "By tracing the lives of a series of cultural objects, Lash and Lury analyse with great insight how, in our age of globalization, culture comes to play an ever more central and intense role in economic production. In the process, they revise powerfully our traditional notions of the culture industry." Michael Hardt, co-author of Empire and Multitude
“A fascinating set of accounts of the changing role and meaning of selected ‘cultural objects’.”

“Their empirical work is thorough and detailed, with each chapter providing a rich description of the history, life, and geography of the cultural object in question.”

Product Description
In the first half of the twentieth century, Theodor Adorno wrote about the 'culture industry'. For Adorno, culture too along with the products of factory labour was increasingly becoming a commodity. Now, in what they call the 'global culture industry', Scott Lash and Celia Lury argue that Adorno's worst nightmares have come true.
Their new book tells the compelling story of how material objects such as watches and sportswear have become powerful cultural symbols, and how the production of symbols, in the form of globally recognized brands, has now become a central goal of capitalism. Global Culture Industry provides an empirically and theoretically rich examination of the ways in which these objects - from Nike shoes to Toy Story, from global football to conceptual art - metamorphose and move across national borders.
This book is set to become a dialectic of enlightenment for the age of globalization. It will be essential reading for students and scholars across the social sciences.
读起来还挺荡气回肠的。将几乎所有对立的/分析的的理论已一种万佛朝中的辨证唯物主义的方式纳入整个资本主义文化逻辑的演变图景。这种理论的方式依然很美式(快餐又营养)。与同僚Stiegler的著作对比着看很有意思。stiegler师从德里达将文码(grammatologie)之人类学的理解发展性应用在信息时代的编码/编写之上,而其他的理论是他铺展理论雄心的不同根茎。从单个点看,lash是串烧,stiegler是打桩。

评分开篇的introduction很惊艳,既满溢insight又lucid,但是后面的篇章不是又走入了细碎线索模糊的介绍,就是又在讨论art as concept这类哲学式题目,有点disappointing。不过还是相当有新意的吧~还有interview的方法~
评分It's interesting to read against the cultural industry thesis analyzed by the Frankfurt School, and the scope of empirical evidence is impressive, although at moments i found myself wondering how certain information was gathered by the researchers. Theoretically I found it a bit dispersed and somewhat 'diluted', lacking in-depth arguments.
