The world is being reshaped by fundamental changes deriving from globalisation and the shift from modernity to late modernity. At the heart of these changes is the knowledge economy. Work in the knowledge economy operates quite differently than in the industrial economy in that it is highly dependent on communication and language. This book considers how language and culture are relevant to the practices of the knowledge economy while also considering how the broader changes obliges us to reconsider the nature of language.
