Processes of globalization have had a profound impact on cultural production and dissemination, both intra and cross culturally. The dissemination of cultures on a global scale has led to multiple and complex effects, among them the formation of radical new modes of cultural interaction, transcultural flows, and hybridized knowledges; forms not easily understandable in terms of traditional models of discrete national or ethnic cultures/subcultures. This book develops new scholarly and creative strategies out of this intersection of cultural traditions, specifically in Russia and the United States. It defines and enacts a transcultural method as an alternative to the legacies of cultural divisions and hegemony that have dominated both Western and Second Worlds. The book introduces a system of original concepts and genres of writing that will help in mapping 21st century global culture.
