Hi all,
A colleague and I are trying to figure out the best term for borrowed
discourses that adopt local meanings and get transformed in the process?
For example, discourse on racial discrimination as we know it from US
context is borrowed by other countries and transformed since the race
relations have different history. Type of "glocalized discourse"? But
addressing semantic changes on the local level?
Thanks,
Nade
