Composing in a Global-Local Context: Careers, Mobility, Skills

Min-Zhan Lu ; Bruce Horner

Abstract

When composition students look to their teachers for vocational guidance, both groups should acknowledge that the contexts of such terms as career, mobility, and skills have radically changed. In particular, the economy now links the global with the local, and capitalism has shifted from the fordist model, dominant through much of the twentieth century, to a newer, “fast” model.
