Cyber-colonialism in Asia: more imagined than real?. Media Asia: an Asian Mass Communication
Quarterly. 1998. v. 25(3): p. 130-137.
Political reactions to the assumed cultural hegemonic potentials of the Internet are not new. "Media
imperialism" ("cyber-colonialism" in the context of this paper) has been touted as the premise by
newly independent states to break out the vicious cycle of being dominated by Western cultural
semiotics, consumerism and liberal-democratic political ideas. This paper will address the limitations
of the "cyber-colonialism" theory and argue that Asia should respond to the Internet by mustering an
"Asian" collective consciousness and getting it heard and represented in cyberspace. It is proposed that
Asians have to stake their position and work out new ways for self-expression and representation on
the Internet. While this paper recognizes the historical trappings of colonialism and neo-colonialism in
the region, it argues that what is needed is a reoreintations of mindsets for understanding the dynamics
of "cultural dominance" and assertions.
