Since Appadurai wrote on the intertwined phenomena of electronic media and migration as disruptive and defining features of modern subjectivity (1996), the relationship between digital technologies and diasporic communities has emerged as a critical area of study across a number of disciplines. However, rarely foregrounded in cross-disciplinary discussions are the linguistic and cultural dimensions that are central to the human concerns and practices which lie behind these crucial issues of our age. This collection explores the complexity of the contemporary context of intensified cultural and linguistic flows and new patterns of human mobility.
