Informative Summaries
This text is organized into three parts: Literacy,
culture and difference on the Web; Literacy,
diversity, and identity on the Web; and Literacy,
conflict, and hybridity on the Web. And the chapters are
about Hungary,
Greece, Australia,
Palau, Norway,
Japan, Scotland,
Mexico, Cuba,
and South Africa.
Because of their significance to the text, I have also provided a brief
definition of the global
village narrative and of postmodern identities
on the Web: reflective discussions of these themes are also available in
the critical
section of this review. I have also summarized Hawisher and Selfe's
introduction
and conclusion.
The intention of this section of my review is report on the main ideas
and significant content of the chapters and to present that material as
faithfully to the original style as possible. As such, these summaries
rely heavily on the authors' own words and on presenting the content concisely.
