Arab Studies: Mapping the Field by Marwan M. Kraidy

Modernity is sought by all developing countries. Modernity can only be a good thing. However, there is a complicated relationship with the modern era, and the nation state may be the cause of sectarianism. Modernity is a very obscure topic, and because of the different interpretation of its meaning, there is only one modernity or whether it is flexible. How does the idea of ​​nationalism and solidarity lead to sectarianism and violence? As we are addressing these issues in the Arab world, these issues deserve further research and development, and some regimes in this region collapsed while maintaining all stability and tension.

The explanation of Jasmine and Belle described in the article on Disney Aladdin by Marwan Kraidy (1998) is exactly the same. Just like Bell, Jasmine says, "Although it is strongly superficially superficially dependent, it is actually obedient and dependent (Kraidy, 1998, p. 50). Neither has a mother (the image of the most intimate mother is Rajah, Jasmine's pet Bengal Tiger and Potts, Magical Teapot / Beast Castle's maid) and advanced sensuality in both texts (Always before Klading Play) Broid Kraidy, 1998, p. 52. But as Aladdin sings, Jasmine and Bell are the bells from her, giving Jasmine "opening your eyes" Jasmine, as an actor, his ideal rule, "the beast is also a bell from her." Just as Aladdin sings, I never stood by himself as I wanted in the beginning, and showed their achievements through their male counterparts.

Globalization, the concept of globalization through the core of cultural hybridization (Kraidy, 1999). From the study of ethnographic magazine, you can see that the concept of global localization comes from the appearance of a young man paying meals at a Chinese restaurant using a debit card. This represents the use of an organization's global means (use of debit cards - online banking) to satisfy local customers and maintain the region's Chinese meals and movie culture. This shows that globalization has crossed the local or global context known to people as people around the world eat in other countries and take advantage of globalization. Piertese (1995) believes that globalization will be strengthened with localism, like "global thinking, regional behavior".

After overcoming the hybrid slippery concept, Kraidy continues to apply this concept to media globalization. He believes that hybridization is the key to understanding the globalization of media in the age of free trade. First, he defines the globalization of the media as an American who is prosperous in corporate cross-cultural, media companies, and cultural production and freedom of consumption, prospering in the mixture of cultures I will. (195). The "format adaptation" and localized business strategies of global media companies such as MTV, CNN, News Corporation and BBC are dominated by Western values, cultural, political and economic aspects.
