“…A key example of this is that social media allow the youth in the Philippines to live out their desires for a 'modern love' characterised by 'globalised' perspectives and practices towards sexuality (Illouz, 2012), despite living in a country where the public discourse is predominated by conservative Catholicism (Cabañes, 2019; see also Labor, 2020). Twitter, for instance, has enabled young middle-class Filipinos to materialise public expressions of such a kind of modern love (Lorenzana, 2018). Through their deft use of hashtags, they are able to create 'ambient affiliation' (Zappavigna, 2011), that is, momentary and mediated bonds that afford them an escape from local expectations for heteronormative partnerships that lead to traditional marriage.…”

This article looks at mobile media access in the Philippines and the kind of social intimacies that have emerged from it. To frame our discussion, we use the concept of ‘glocal intimacies’. This pertains to how mobile technologies have normalised and intensified the entanglement of people’s relationships of closeness with the ever-shifting and constantly negotiated flows between global modernity and local everyday life. We show that the uneven access that Filipinos have has led to equally uneven ways in which they imagine and enact intimate relationships. Drawing on case studies emblematic of the country’s key income clusters, we point out the emergence of a contradictory situation, wherein those with relatively high-quality access are those who are least dependent on mobile media for their glocal intimacies. Meanwhile, those with relatively low-quality access are those who are actually most dependent on mobile-mediated communication for such intimacies.

“…Journalistic accounts of AlDub generally lack a solid ethnographic analysis of the role Eat Bulaga plays in everyday life as well as the relationship between its material context of production and the social context of consumption. Some anthropologists have provided an ethnographic context explaining the basis for their success (Pertierra, 2017b, Lorenzana, 2018.…”

Contemporary world culture contributes significantly to the crisis of modernity. The global condition has engendered a variety of cultures, each adjusting to its particular condition. Instead of culture being an expression of values, perspectives, and practices within a territory, contemporary culture acts more like a free-floating signifier loosely connected to its material base. Each expression of culture develops according to its own internal logic: high culture vs. popular culture; culture of virtuality & virtual culture; and local, national, and globalized cultures. Each expression of culture is variedly connected to its material base or spatial configuration. Culture both includes and excludes, depending on notions of normativity and exemplarity. All cultures are autopoesic and complexly related to their specific ecologies.

To explore the rapid development of digital technology and its profound impact on human behavior and social functioning and to study the mechanisms by which digital technology and the social environment interact, a new branch of sociology—digital sociology—has emerged and rapidly entered a stage of vigorous development. This article briefly introduces digital sociology and outlines the research progress of digital sociology in six areas: labor economy and production, digital politics and power, social relations and interaction, body and self, social inequality, and methodological innovation. Based on this, the article compares digital sociology research in China and the West. The rapid development of digital technology in China provides a superb opportunity for sociology, and digital sociology has great potential for development in China.
