Abstract
Navigating the complex interplay of ICT, modernity, and postmodernity within the Tibetan diaspora, this literature review uncovers the transformative role of ICT in displaced communities. It dissects how ICT influences Tibetan refugees’ social networks, cross-border exchanges, and cultural identities amidst geopolitical tumult. We highlight the intricate link between ICT use and cultural preservation, through the lens of modernity and postmodernism. We underline the need for nuanced understanding and further investigation into ICT’s impact on displaced populations, considering its multifaceted role in reshaping identities, fostering social mobility, and enhancing overall well-being in our increasingly interconnected and digital world. We identify challenges and opportunities for further research, with a particular focus on elucidating the intricate relationship between ICT and cultural identity, the promise of crowdsourcing for cultural preservation, the protective potential of ICT for cultural identity, and the role of ICT as emancipatory tools in the face of social stratification.
