The realities of globalization, with its increased connectivities, intensification of worldwide social relations, and increased mixing of the global and the local, "call for profound changes in the way both language and culture have traditionally been conceptualized," write the editors, who present 17 chapters that theorize the ways in which hybridized identities of globalization are constructed at the intersection of global and local languages and cultures. The multidisciplinary collection, drawing on such fields as discourse analysis, code-switching, media studies, post-colonial studies, conversation analysis, and multi-lingual research, explores English-based hybridization in four sections that explore the role of hybridity in subverting the canon of standard English; hybridized discourses of identity in the media; hybridity in the linguistic practices of online communities; and the ways in which hybrid identities and agencies are constructed through language.
