Abstract:

Contributions from an international team of experts revisit and update the
concept of linguistic ecology in order to critically examine current
theoretical approaches to language contact. Language is understood as a part
of complex socio-historical-cultural systems, and interaction between the
different dimensions and levels of these systems is considered to be essential
for specific language forms. This book presents a uniform, abstract model of
linguistic ecology based on, among other things, two concepts of Edmund
Husserl's philosophy (parts and wholes, and foundation). It considers the
individual speaker in the specific communication situation to be the essential
heuristic basis of linguistic analysis. The chapters present and employ a new,
transparent and accessible contact linguistic vocabulary to aid reader
comprehension, and explore a wide range of language contact situations in
Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Latin America, Asia and the Pacific. This
book will be fascinating reading for students and researchers across contact
linguistics and cultural studies.
