Abstract:

This volume approaches contemporary multilingualism as a new linguistic
dispensation, in urgent need of research-led, reflective scrutiny. The book
addresses the emergent global and local patterns of multingual use and
acquisition across the world and explores the major trends that characterize
today's multilingualism. It is divided into three parts on the basis of the
broad themes: education (including multilingual learning in its general,
theoretical aspects), sociolinguistic dimensions and language policy. The
book's fifteen chapters, written by renowned international experts, discuss a
range of issues relating to the quintessential and unique properties of
multilingual situations – issues relevant to the challenges faced in different
ways by researcher and practitioners alike. All the contributions share a
focus on currently operative patterns of interaction between contexts, events
and processes.
