Teaching Writing in Globalization: Remapping Disciplinary Work,
edited by Darin Payne and Daphne Desser, examines the impact of
globalization on disciplinary work in higher education. Conversely,
it also examines the impact of disciplinary work on the shape and
evolution of globalization. Payne and Desser collect a series of
essays which offer ways of actively engaging globalization from
within, not as mere observers or adapters but as citizens with
agency. Using writing instruction as its touchstone and
rhetoric/composition as a disciplinary case study, the book
critically analyzes the shifting work of teaching, research, and
administration in academia, exploring ways in which individuals and
institutions can respond to the social, economic, and cultural
changes presently underway. The authors develop separate chapters
from a shared vantage point: one who is critical of the increasing
imprint of neoliberalism on education. The essays provide, in both
theory and practice, varying means of disrupting, intervening in,
and challenging that imprint within the primary domains of academic
life-scholarship, pedagogy, and administrative service. Members of
varied disciplines will find in this collection a potential model
for thinking critically about, and responding proactively to, their
own academic work in the context of globalization.
