Cultural Relations in the Global Community: Problems and Prospects

Cultural Relations in the Global Community: Problems and Prospects was first published in 1981. This 2026 publication is a reissue of that edition with very slight additions. The first edition gives the following description. Cultural Relations in the Global Community: Problems and Prospects focuses attention on emerging critical dimensions of the modern interdependent world. While interdependence impinges on all nations in the field of science and technology, economics, politics, education and research, human health, environmental well being, etc., the nature and meaning of interdependence continue to be rather unclear. It is however possible to see in recent discussions of the subject certain "new trends and perspectives" which are capable of offering deeper understanding of 'this complex and often overpowering reality'. >The editors are described as follows: >Philip, Puthenparampil John, Ph.D. (1 May 1916), Philosophy and Political Science, University of Madras and London School of Economics.
