Abstract:

Language contact - the linguistic and social outcomes of two or more languages
coming into contact with each other - starts with the emergence of
multilingual populations. Multilingualism involving plurilingualism can have
various consequences beyond borrowing, interference, and code-mixing and
-switching, including the emergence of lingua francas and new language
varieties, as well as language endangerment and loss. Bringing together
contributions from an international team of scholars, this Handbook - the
second in a two-volume set - engages the reader with the manifold aspects of
multilingualism and provides state-of-the-art research on the impact of
population structure on language contact. It begins with an introduction that
presents the history of the scholarship on the subject matter. The chapters
then cover various processes and theoretical issues associated with
multilingualism embedded in specific population structures worldwide as well
as their outcomes. It is essential reading for anybody interested in how
people behave linguistically in multilingual or multilectal settings.
