What is behind the rise and rise of these winky faces, clinking glasses and smiling poos? Given the sheer variety of verbal communication on the internet and English's still-controversial role as lingua mundi for the web, these icons have emerged as a compensatory universal language. The Semiotics of Emoji looks at what is officially the world's fastest-growing form of communication. Emoji, the colourful symbols and glyphs that represent everything from frowning disapproval to red-faced shame, are fast becoming embedded into digital communication. Controlled by a centralized body and regulated across the web, emoji seems to be a language: but is it? The rapid adoption of emoji in such a short span of time makes it a rich study in exploring the functions of language. Professor Marcel Danesi, an internationally-known expert in semiotics, branding and communication, answers the pertinent questions. Are emoji making us dumber? Can they ultimately replace language? Will people grow up emoji literate as well as digitally native? Can there be such a thing as a Universal Visual Language? Read this book for the answers.--$cFrom publisher's website. 410 0$aBloomsbury advances in semiotics. 606 $aEmoticons 606 $aSocial media$xSemiotics 606 $aVisual communication$xDigital techniques 606 $aWriting$vInteractive multimedia 606 $aLanguage and the Internet 606 $alinguistics$2bicssc 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEmoticons. 615 0$aSocial media$xSemiotics. 615 0$aVisual communication$xDigital techniques. 615 0$aWriting 615 0$aLanguage and the Internet. 615 7$alinguistics 676 $a302.23/1 700 $aDanesi$b Marcel$f1946-$0166452 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bCaBNVSL 801 2$bCaBNVSL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910511393203321 996 $aThe semiotics of Emoji$92551477 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04163nam 22008655 450 001 9910782218103321 005 20200919012104.0 010 $a1-281-91531-9 010 $a9786611915315 010 $a0-230-60934-1 024 7 $a10.1057/9780230609341 035 $a(CKB)1000000000550035 035 $a(EBL)370458 035 $a(OCoLC)314769875 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001657084 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)16440145 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001657084 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)14987247 035 $a(PQKB)10307513 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000108041 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11984516 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000108041 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10013038 035 $a(PQKB)10549213 035 $a(DE-He213)978-0-230-60934-1 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC370458 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000550035 100 $a20151124d2007 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aAutonomy, Ethnicity, and Poverty in Southwestern China$b[electronic resource] $eThe State Turned Upside Down /$fby C.

However, each of these channels designates a submissive position to ethnic citizenship. Amidst theoretical uncertainty on how the state has affected local communities, ethnic minorities can develop subjectivity. Through this, they can sincerely participate in the state's policy agenda, conveniently incorporate the state into the ethnic identity, give feedback to the state within the framework of official discourse, or hide behind the state to evade ethnic identification. Rather than finding a life outside the state, the ethnic communities can, in one way or another, position themselves inside the state. 606 $aAsia?Politics and government 606 $aPolitical economy 606 $aEconomic policy 606 $aPolitical sociology 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aPoverty 606 $aAsian Politics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911110 606 $aInternational Political Economy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912140 606 $aEconomic Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34010 606 $aPolitical Sociology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22170 606 $aPolitical Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911000 606 $aDevelopment Aid$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913040 607 $aChina, Southwest$xPolitics and government 615 0$aAsia?Politics and government. 615 0$aPolitical economy. 615 0$aEconomic policy. 615 0$aPolitical sociology. 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 0$aPoverty. 615 14$aAsian Politics. 615 24$aInternational Political Economy. 615 24$aEconomic Policy. 615 24$aPolitical Sociology. 615 24$aPolitical Science. 615 24$aDevelopment Aid. 676 $a323.151 676 $a951/.306 700 $aShih$b C$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01544639 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782218103321 996 $aAutonomy, Ethnicity, and Poverty in Southwestern China$93799042 997 $aUNINA
