Comparative North American Studies: Transnational Approaches to American and Canadian Literature and Culture
Merging selected case studies with textual analyses, this book explores the field of Comparative North American Literature through writers diverse as Margaret Atwood and Tim O'Brien. Topics include the North American modernist short story, narratives of the Canada-US border, and a never before released interview with Atwood.
Language, Literacy and Diversity brings together researchers who are leading the innovative and important re-theorization of language and literacy in relation to social mobility, multilingualism and globalization. The volume examines local and global flows of people, language and literacy in relation to social practice; the role (and nature) of boundary maintenance or disruption in global, transnational and translocal contexts; and the lived experiences of individuals on the front lines of global, transnational and translocal processes.
The Encyclopedia of Global Studies is the reference work for the emerging field of global studies. It covers both transnational topics and intellectual approaches to the study of global themes, including the globalization of economies and technologies; the diaspora of cultures and dispersion of peoples; the transnational aspects of social and political change; the global impact of environmental, technological, and health changes; and the organizations and issues related to global civil society.
Moralizing the Corporation: Transnational Activism and Corporate Accountability
`The argument of this book is so powerful and convincing because it focuses on global subpolitics: the corporate (ir)responsibility, the power of its critics, and the consuming citizen. This shift of perspectives and its sophistication makes Moralizing the Corporation a must-read for anyone interested in the dynamics of globalization.' - Ulrich Beck, University of Munich, Germany
