EXPLORING THE POSSIBILITIES OF ON-CAMPUS CULTURAL GLOCALIZATION

At present, the whole world is walking through an internationalization process in which almost everything is thought, planned, negotiated and arranged globally. Due to the ever increasing correspondence and interaction among the nations of the world, culture also has taken its unique place in the globalization process along with other concepts rooted in the lives of people. This cultural globalization co-exists with a cultural glocalization, a relatively recent concept resembling a big bowl consisting of pieces of local cultures in the global frame. In the present world undergoing a process of increasing international connection in the global scale, international campuses, as learning spaces in university education in many parts of the world, may be unique environments for cultural glocalization that can ultimately contribute to the global peace, understanding and friendship. This article is intended to shed light on the possibility and significance of cultural glocalization and the practicability of the realization of this concept on international, cosmopolitan university campuses.

Kampüste Kültürel Küyerel Ortamın Mümkünlüğü Üzerine

Günümüzde, dünya neredeyse her şeyin düşünüldüğü, planlandığı ve düzenlendiği bir uluslararasılaşma sürecinden geçmektedir. Dünya milletleri arasındaki güçlenen ilişkiler sayesinde, insan hayatıyla ilgili diğer kavramların yanı sıra kültür de küreselleşme sürecinde kendine has yerini almıştır. Bu kültürel küreselleşme, küresel çerçevede yerel kültürlerin birleştiği bir fanusa benzetilebilecek kültürel bir küyerelleşmeyle birlikte var olmaktadır. Küresel bağlamdaki bağlılık çağında, dünyanın birçok yerinde üniversite eğitimi veren uluslararası kampüsler nihai bağlamda küresel barışa, anlayışa ve arkadaşlığa katkı sağlayabilecek kültürel küyerel ortamlar oluşturabilirler. Bu çalışma, kültürel küyerelleşmenin önemi ve bu kavramın uluslararası kozmopolit üniversite kampüslerinde uygulamaya dönüştürülebilmesi olasılığını incelemektedir.
