The studies in this volume support certain common, perhaps
universal conclusions about heroes: All cultures have them; all
cultures need them; who or what is considered heroic may vary from
culture to culture; the heroes of a culture reflect or define
culture values; communication is at the heart of hero creation and
maintenance. The array of topics associated with heroes is vast in
this global, post September 11th, modern media environment. This
volume provides a survey and hopefully stimulates consideration of
continuity and change with regard to heroes. ""Heroes in a Global
World"" is concerned with the role communication processes,
practices, and technologies play in developing the form and
function of the contemporary hero.
