<p><span>Global Identities in Transit: The Ethics and Politics of Representation in World Literatures and Cultures</span><span> explores the myriad aspects of identity formation and identity representation in an increasingly globalized world. Covering a variety of cultural and historical experiences in addition to several texts of world literatures, the contributors discuss the configurations of transnationality and transculturality in our postcolonial and globalized world. Acknowledging that nationality, ethnicity, gender, and class are continually shaped by historical processes, the contributors hone in on the ways that the increase in mobility via migration, diaspora, and exile render identities always in transit In the face of structural inequalities and social injustices predominant in this context, the chapters reflect on the moral obligations of representation. This collection will be of interest to scholars of cultural studies, postcolonial studies, and world literature.</span></p>
<p><span>Global Identities in Transit: The Ethics and Politics of Representation in World Literatures and Cultures</span><span> explores ways in which the impact of (post)colonial and global conditions on individual and group identities is reflected in different cultures and represented in world literary texts.</span></p>
