Inhoud:

This book makes a novel contribution to the sociolinguistics of globalization by examining language and social change in the tourism destination of West Street, Yangshuo, China. It explores the contingencies and tensions in the creation of a âglobal villageâ and reveals ambivalent struggles inherent in this ongoing process of social change.
