This collection of thirteen essays examines sociolinguistic
phenomena in a wide variety of marginal environments, providing
both an overview of globalizaiton on the margins and a foundation
for an expanded understanding of the processes of linguistic and
cultural changes at work in these settings. Taking an expansive
conceptual view of margins, the volume is organized in three parts,
looking at examples of marginal spaces in the nation-state, in
online environments, and in the peripheries of urban locations,
globally to call attention to new and changing discursive genres,
patterns, practices, and identities emerging in these spaces as a
result of contemporary mobilities, the evolving global economy, and
socio-political changes. With previous research previously confined
to the study of globalization in urban areas, this volume opens the
door for further research on the complex sociolinguistic processes
resulting from globalization on the margins, making this an ideal
resource for students and scholars in sociolinguistics,
globalization and heritage studies, new media, anthropology, and
cultural studies.
