The Appeal of Marshall McLuhan in Contemporary China
Abstract
Key words: Marshall McLuhan; China; Internet; Global Village; Media; the Extensions of Man
Résumé: Bien que son nom a été largement oublié dans le monde occidental, Marshall McLuhan et ses pensées sont devenus de plus en plus attrayants pour des universitaires en Chine. Les causes principales peuvent être trouvées dans six aspects: 1) une nouvelle appréciation de la valeur des oeuvres de Marshall McLuhan qui parle des effets de médias sur la société en raison de l'impact dramatique de la popularité croissante de l'Internet en Chine et son influence sur les Chinois et la société chinoise, 2) 457 millions d'internautes chinois embrassant le sentiment d'appartenance au “village mondial”, où ils peuvent "étendre leur système nerveux central", 3) après avoir vécu tant de grands changements, les Chinois étant facilement convaincus par les théories de Marshall McLuhan selon laquelles les médias peuvent changer les traditions, y compris le monde; 4) le style théorétique de l'écriture de Marshall McLuhan donne une occasion aux universitaires chinois d'approfondir leurs recherches et développer leurs propres pensées et, 5) l'illumination significative que les deux concepts célèbres de Marshall McLuhan "Média chaud" et "Média froid" ont eu sur les médias chinois où la concurrence est en croissance intense et la réforme sera en outre prise, et 6) l'influence profonde et de grande envergure que les théories de Marshall McLuhan sur les médias ont eu sur les perspectives académiques chinoises, ainsi que leurs méthodes et techniques d'enseignement, notamment dans les domaines de la culture et de la communication.
