| 释义 | Castells, ManuelCastells, Manuel(1942-) Spanish-born sociologist, who first rose to prominence in the 1970s as a Marxian urban sociologist, especially researching and theorizing the role of URBAN SOCIAL MOVEMENTS. Increasingly operating, both in his teaching and his research, on a global stage, subsequently Castells has written more in a post-Marxist mode, focusing on the transformation of the global. The Informational City (1989) marked a transition in his work, in that he argued that developments in INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY were transforming patterns of regional development. His magnum opus, the three volumes of The Information Age: Economy Society and Culture (1996-8) have been widely hailed as a tour de force. The work surveys the information-driven, post cold war global economy (see also NETWORK SOCIETY), analysing both its dynamism (especially of new cultural regions such as the Asian Pacific) and its new patterns of inequality. |
