Encounters involving different cultures and languages are
increasingly the norm in the era of globalization. While
considerable attention has been paid to how languages and cultures
transform in the era of globalization, their characteristic
features prior to transformation are frequently taken for granted.
This pioneering book argues that globalization offers an
unprecedented opportunity to revisit fundamental assumptions about
what distinguishes languages and cultures from each other in the
first place. It takes the case of global Korea, showing how the
notion of 'culture' is both represented but also reinvented in
public space, with examples from numerous sites across Korea and
Koreatowns around the world. It is not merely about locating spaces
where translingualism happens but also about exploring the various
ways in which linguistic and cultural difference come to be located
via translingualism. It will appeal to anyone interested in the
globalization of language and culture.
