American Creative and Cultural Industries in International Relations

(1.5 Credits)

The course explores the reciprocal influence between American cultural industries and the rest of the globe. Due to digital technologies and globalization, traditional government-driven relations have transformed to accommodate a multitude of players: artists, promoters, non-profits, and fan groups. The module emphasizes the historical and current impact of American cultural production, alongside the rise of alternative centers (China, India, Russia, Iran).
