Abstract:
Language and Social Change in China: Undoing Commonness through Cosmopolitan
Mandarin offers an innovative and authoritative account of the crucial role of
language in shaping the sociocultural landscape of contemporary China. Based
on a wide range of data collected since the 1990s and grounded in quantitative
and discourse analyses of sociolinguistic variation, Qing Zhang tracks the
emergence of what she terms “Cosmopolitan Mandarin” as a new stylistic
resource for a rising urban elite and a new middle-class consumption-based
lifestyle. This text is ideal for students and scholars interested in
sociolinguistics and linguistic anthropology, and Chinese language and
society.
