Description

This comprehensive sociolinguistic study examines how linguistic minorities use language in multilingual societies shaped by globalisation, migration, and cultural pluralism. The book focuses on linguistic interaction within educational settings, providing a detailed ethnographic analysis of language practices among speakers whose languages remain marginalised in mainstream communication. Published by Bloomsbury, this second edition of Advances in Sociolinguistics offers sociolinguists and education professionals essential insights into how language functions within specific social contexts. The research addresses the increasing linguistic diversity created by contemporary social forces, with particular attention to schools as critical sites where different languages come into contact. By studying actual language use rather than theoretical abstractions, the work illuminates the complex relationship between linguistic minorities and modern society, making it invaluable for understanding multilingual educational environments and sociolinguistic research methodologies.

Key Features

Examines sociolinguistic theory through detailed study of how speakers of non-dominant languages navigate mainstream communication.

Includes research on the erosion of nationhood and its effects on linguistic diversity and minority language communities.
