文章导读 《语言与全球化：自我民族志方法》（Language and Globalization: An Autoethnographic Approach，M. Borjian 2017）是罗德里奇（Routledge）出版社继《全球化与语言教学》（Globalization and Language Teaching，D. Block & D. Cameron 2002）和《语言与全球化》（Language and Globalization，N. Fairclough 2006）之后推出的又一部以“语言与全球化”为主题的作品。该书由美国罗格斯大学知名语言学家Mayjam Borjian主编，收集了15位作者的文章。这些作者中，不仅有来自多个民族和国家的语言研究者，还有诗人、教师、公共活动策划者以及学生。在自我民族志这一新的研究范式下，本书从多个视角叙述了语言学家和语言教育者在全球化时代的生活和学术经历，以及由此产生的对全球语言问题的不同理解，即Bernard Spolsky在对该书评价中提到的“个体反应”，为语言和全球化研究提供了新的视角——研究者反思。
Abstract：In responds to the dichotomy of current language issue studies, and draws upon autoethnography as a research paradigm, which emphasizes on researchers’ introspection, this book endeavors to enunciate how language interacts with social variables such as linguistics, education, socio-culture, politics, economy, ideology and how these interactions and intersectionality influence the world’s languages and cultures. Coming from interdisciplinary and multicultural backgrounds, the 15 authors break the usual European-centered pattern of globalization studies, and discuss the expansion of English, identity, and language endangerment from their own experiences, thus presenting to readers holistically how globalization impacts languages and their users and how individuals react to the linguistic globalization in the 21st century.
