Critical Global Semiotics: Understanding Sustainable
Transformational Citizenship incorporates powerful unifying
frameworks which make explicit a developing global consciousness.
It explores transdisciplinary 'common wealth' through focus on
multimodality, media, and metaphor, testing two universally
applicable humanitarian frameworks: critical realism (CR) and
systemic functional semiotics (SFS). Every day, global citizens
encounter an overwhelming host of genres and sub-genres, emergent
semantic triangles, evolving semiotic trinity. Embodying
philosophy, incorporating active engagement, this book addresses
the political economy and cultural politics of diverse domains.
Challenging daily drama and performative dharma, 24 analysts from
13 countries present current issues in Anthropology, Architecture,
Dance, Feminism, Film, Health, Law, Management, Medicine, Music,
Politics, Pharmaceuticals, Sociology, Sustainability Education, and
Urban Development. The book's integrative, unifying foundations
will be of interest to researchers, academics, and post-graduate
students in the fields of linguistics, semiotics, and critical
realist philosophy, as well as to policy makers, curriculum
developers, and civil society.
