Language and Culture on the Margins

---

This collection of twelve essays examines sociolinguistic phenomena in
a wide variety of marginal environments, providing both an overview of
globalization 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
sociopolitical changes. With 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.
