Abstract

Abstract

Since the 1990s, the world has become increasingly globalized and localized at the same time, a phenomenon some might call glocalization. Whereas globalization leads to cultural convergence, localization is responsible for an increase in cultural diversity and efforts at cultural preservation. Against this backdrop, scholars working in comparative literature often diverge in their engagement with culture. Recently, in order to overcome the limitations of Eurocentrism or Western centric theories, many scholars are choosing the mutually constitutive and productive theories of world literature and cosmopolitanism.
