Summary:  "This volume, Culture and Customs in a Connected World, explores how cultural connections across international boundaries increased following World War II. From radio and television to literature and journalism, culture and ideas linked humanity more than ever, even as the Cold War tore an ideological rift between superpowers. It also examines how, in the 1990s, after the Cold War ended, the Internet and other globalizing forces helped to create a "free marketplace of ideas" and helped multiculturalism flourish, even as American culture spread to more corners of the globe.."--Back cover Audience:  Ages 12 to adult.
