Against a background of the ongoing crisis of global capitalism and
the fracturing of the neoliberal project, this book provides a
detailed account of the ways in which language is profoundly
imbricated in the neoliberalising of the fabric of social life.
With chapters from a cast list of international scholars covering
topics such as the commodification of education and language,
unemployment, and the governmentality of the self, and discussion
chapters from Monica Heller and Jackie Urla bringing the various
strands together, the book ultimately helps us to understand how
language is part of political economy and the everyday making and
remaking of society and individuals. It provides both a theoretical
framework and a significant methodological "tool-box" to critically
detect, understand, and resist the impact of neoliberalism on
everyday social spheres, particularly in relation to language.
Presenting richly empirical studies that expand our understanding
of how neoliberalism as a regime of truth and as a practice of
governance performs within the terrain of language, this book is an
essential resource for researchers and graduate students in English
language, sociolinguistics, applied linguistics, linguistic
anthropology, and related areas.
