Is globalization in danger of diluting national identities and
'transnationalizing' cultures? How can societies attempt to manage
globalization and become developed while maintaining a viable
national identity? In this 2007 study of three globalizing states
and cities in post-Soviet Eurasia - Russia (Astrakhan), Kazakhstan
(Almaty), and Azerbaijan (Baku) - Douglas W. Blum provides an
empirical examination of national identity formation, exploring how
cultures, particularly youth cultures, have been affected by global
forces. Blum argues that social discourse regarding youth cultural
trends - coupled with official and non-official approaches to youth
policy - complement patterns of state-society relations and modes
of response to globalization. His findings show that the nations
studied have embraced certain aspects of modernity and liberalism,
while rejecting others, but have also reasserted the place of
national traditions.
