The Globalizing World and the Human Community

Publication of the proceedings of the 3rd Seoul International Forum for Literature held in May 2011 will make the papers presented at the forum available to a readership larger than the audiance that participated at its various events. The theme of the forum was "The Globalizing World and the Human Community." Included under this general theme were sections dealing with various problems the writer faces in today's world: the conditions of increasing pressure in an enlarged market; the changing nature of the readership as it becomes more multicultural and global; and the status of writing in the developing multimedia world.
