The book discusses the consequences of fast modernization and how non-Western catch-up countries are aware of their traditional cultural values. It focuses on how ICT changes the social memory of countries with languages that don’t use the Roman alphabet, such as Korea and the Arabic countries.

Information and communication technology (ICT) has boosted economic development in China. To understand China’s modernization, it is therefore necessary to consider the development of ICT. The book reflects how a catch–up country with a fast modernization process develops into a relatively modern country and the consequences of the fast development. It focuses on the development of media in China by examining the diffusion of ICT and providing a case study in an indigenous place to explore the modernization process. The book offers a new perspective to understand modernization and contributes knowledge to understand China’s media, technology diffusion, indigenous culture transformation into modern culture and social changes.
