Could ‘empires have stretched across the world without communication throughout their borders? Could religion, music, poetry, film, fiction, cuisine, and fashion develop as they have without the Imermingling of media and culturest™® ‘There is an intimate relationship between globalization and media which must be unraveled to further understand the ‘contemporary world.
