From world sf (via, if we must, World Sf) to world-sf: An introduction

Bould, Mark

Abstract

This article situates the recent turn to sf from outside the America-British tradition within broader developments in American Studies, Comparative Literature and World Literature. Building on the work of WReC, it argues that the next stage for sf studies is to understand its changing object of study in relation to the globalisation of uneven development.
