This paper explains changes in Chinese and German temporal understanding as a cultural construct due to internet-mediated communication as one oft the key mediating factors aside others. It integrates the anthropological construct of polychronicity, pace of life and temporal horizon into a broader framework, which goes beyond Western biased constructs through the theory driven incorporation of Confucian notions. A central question is whether and how many of the sub dimensions of temporal understanding could be changed through internet-mediated communication. Current media theoretical assumptions are evaluated. Mediatization and recent acceleration theory are taken into consideration. Prospective research is advized to take a closer look at this issue through an interdisciplinary transnational approach. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
