Abstract:

This book explores both theoretical and practical issues of language use in a
migration context, using a mixed-method approach. The unique interview data on
which the analysis is based (and therefore the lens through which these issues
are viewed) stem from the German urban immigrant community in Canada, but the
results and findings have implications for situations of migration throughout
this increasingly globalized world. Through this transcontinental perspective,
this book makes a new contribution to the literature on both language and
identity and language and globalization. Drawing on an interactional analysis,
the focus in this book is on the relationship between interactional
intricacies and larger questions in society addressing the ways in which
migrants' moves between places affects the construction of their identities as
well as sociolinguistic spaces at large. This includes the dynamic positioning
of migrants, the use of multilingual tools as well as non-linguistic resources
and the ways in which language attitudes may affect all of these.
