The Sociolinguistic Economy of Berlin : Cosmopolitan Perspectives on Language, Diversity and Social Space (Language and Social Life [lsl])

This volume explores the linguistic diversity and language variation in Berlin. The analytical focus is on the emergence of linguistic, cultural, political and spatial discourses and communities, or discursive and institutional responses to these. The volume provides new insights into language in its local but transnationally conditioned socio-economic embeddedness.
