Abstract: 

Edited by one of the most prominent scholars in the field and including a distinguished cast of contributors, this collection of essays makes a striking intervention in the increasingly heated debates surrounding the cultural dimensions of globalization. While including discussion about what globalization is and whether it is a meaningful term, the volume focuses in particular on the way that changing sites - local, regional, diasporic are the scenes of emergent forms of sovereignty in which matters of style, sensibility, and authors articulate new legalities and new kinds of violence.
