The volume explores the social, cultural, and historical forms of
"language" that have come to be associated with "Asia" as a global
phenomenon and their implications for better understanding the
contemporary linguistic and political landscape in Asias. The book
examines the flows of migration, people, cultures, and language
resources within, across, through, to, and from Asias in tandem
with social, political, and ideological factors, drawing on case
studies of global iterations of a wide range of Asian national and
cultural imaginaries. In so doing, the volume builds on the growing
body of scholarship on the sociolinguistics of globalization in its
critical inquiries into the linguistic and cultural practices that
have come to be constitutive of national or supranational
localities toward unpacking the forces of globalization more
broadly. This book will be of particular interest to students and
scholars interested in sociolinguistics, multilingualism,
linguistic anthropology, Asian Studies, and Asian American studies.
