The book contends that attention to talk reveals the relations of domination and subordination in heterogeneous, ethnically diverse and multilingual contexts, while also helping us to understand how transcultural solidarity might be expressed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDrawing on original ethnographic research conducted on licensed and unlicensed market stalls in in heterogeneous, ethnically diverse and multilingual contexts, this book examines the centrality of multilingual talk to everyday struggles about difference, positionality and entitlement. In these street markets, Neapolitan street vendors work alongside documented and undocumented migrants from Bangladesh, China, Guinea Conakry, Mali, Nigeria and Senegal as part of an ambivalent, cooperative and unequal quest to survive and prosper.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs austerity, anti-immigration politics and urban regeneration projects encroached upon the possibilities of street vending, talk across linguistic, cultural, national and religious boundaries underpinned the collective action of street vendors struggling to keep their markets open. The edginess of their multilingual organisation offered useful insights into the kinds of imaginaries that will be needed to overcome the politics of borders, nationalism and radical incommunicability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e1 Talk and the Transcultural in Naples\u003cbr\u003e2 Mapping Culture, Communication and Social Change\u003cbr\u003e3 Talk about Talking and Not Talking \u003cbr\u003e4 Multilingual Market Cries\u003cbr\u003e5 Pavement Banter and Catcalls\u003cbr\u003e6 Verbal Infrapolitical Styles\u003cbr\u003e7 Speaking Back to Power\u003cbr\u003e8 The Cultural Languages of the People\u003cbr\u003eBibliography\u003cbr\u003eIndex\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Manchester University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51041000194391,"sku":"9781526138477","price":76.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781526138477.jpg?v=1750948548","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/race-talk-languages-of-racism-and-resistance-in-neapolitan-street-markets-9781526138477","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
