Identity: Beyond Tradition and McWorld Neoliberalism refashions the
frameworks of discussion of who we are. In the Introduction,
co-editors Brian Michael Goss and Christopher Chavez's grand tour
re-works previous concepts of identity in prelude to the volume's
global reach. The first section examines the intersection of
identity and mass media; to wit, non-ascriptive ideological
interpolation in a right-wing British broadsheet (Goss), the rise
of beur cinema as an organically European movement (Arne Saeys),
and linguistic construction of foreigners in a Thai novel (Sompatu
Vungthong). The second section orients to the nation and
trans-nation. The discussion traverses the Global Latino in
advertising discourse (Chavez), the (practical, theoretical)
conundrums inscribed in the European Union (Francisco Seoane
Perez), retorts to the global construction of Italianicity (Paul
Venzo), implications of Spain's World Cup triumph in 2010 for the
nation's unity (Mateo Szlapek-Sewillo), and activism of expatriate
Iranian bloggers (Pardis Shafafi). The third section of the book
addresses social approaches to identity. Matchmakers who coach
Israeli daters (Ya'arit Bokek-Cohen) and linguistic analysis of
female teen conflict on Facebook (Antonio Garcia Gomez) conclude
the trajectory through global sites at which identity is animated
in practice, within a volume of scholarly originality grounded in
right now.
