Abstract:

What happens in globalised social contexts if people identify with a language
that is not traditionally considered to be ‘their’ language? This unique
contribution to the field of sociolinguistics scrutinises language ideologies
of German and Australian Communities of Practice constituted by Salsa dance
and asks what languages symbolise in transnational, non-ethnic cultures. Using
ethnographic methodology and a deconstructive approach to language it examines
these different Salsa communities and gives insight into the interaction of
social discourses from local, national and transnational realms, examining
differences, similarities and a simultaneous multiplicity of languages’
symbolic functions. This book will be welcomed by postgraduates, professional
sociolinguists and linguistic anthropologists as well as scholars of cultural
anthropology, sociology and cultural studies who are interested in the
development of modernist categories in transnational culture.
