Abstract:

Convergence, i.e. the increase of inter-systemic similarities, is usually
considered the default development in language contact situations. This volume
focuses on the other logical possibilities of diachronic development, namely
stability and divergence – two well-attested, but under-researched phenomena.
The contributions investigate the sociolinguistic and structural factors and
mechanisms that lead to or at least reinforce both types of non-convergence,
despite of language contact.  The contributions cover a wide range of language
contact situations, including standard and non-standard varieties.
