Abstract:

It is natural for people to make the distinction between in-group (Us)
and out-group members (Others). What is it that brings people
together, or keeps them apart? Ethnicity, nationality, professional
expertise or life style?  And, above all, what is the role of language
in communicating solidarity and detachment?

The papers in this volume look at the various cognitive, social, and
linguistic aspects of how social identities are constructed,
foregrounded and redefined in interaction. Concepts and methodologies
are taken from studies in language variation and change,
multilingualism, conversation analysis, genre analyisis,
sociolinguistics, critical discourse analysis, as well as translation
studies and applied linguistics. A wide range of languages is brough
into focus in a variety of situational, social and discursive
environments. The book is addressed to scholars and students of
linguistics and related areas of social communication studies.
