Global Linguistic Flows - Hip Hop Cultures, Youth Identities, and The Politics of Language.

This book moves around the world – spanning Africa, Asia, Australia, the Americas and the European Union – to explore Hip Hop cultures, youth identities, the politics of language, and the simultaneous processes of globalization and localization. Focusing closely on language, these scholars of sociolinguistics, linguistic anthropology, cultural studies, and critical pedagogies offer linguistic insights to the growing scholarship on Hip Hop Culture, while reorienting their respective fields by paying closer attention to processes of globalization and localization. Edited by H. Samy Alim, Awad Ibrahim and Alastair Pennycook.
