Abstract:

Note: This title was announced previously by Edinburgh University Press,
for sale outside the U.S. and Canada.  It is available for sale in the U.S.
and Canada by Georgetown University Press.

In this second edition of Arabic Sociolinguistics, Reem Bassiouney expands the
discussion of major theoretical approaches since the publication of the book's
first edition to account for new sociolinguistic theories in Arabic contexts
with up-to-date examples, data, and approaches. The second edition features
revised sections on diglossia, code-switching, gender discourse, language
variation, and language policy in the region while adding a chapter on
critical sociolinguistics—a new framework for critiquing the scholarly
practices of sociolinguistics. Bassiouney also examines the impact of politics
and new media on Arabic language. Arabic Sociolinguistics continues to be a
uniquely valuable resource for understanding the theoretical framework of the
language.
