Abstract:

The impact of mobility and superdiversity in recent sociolinguistic research
is well-established, yet very few studies deal with issues related to
immobility. The chapters in this book focus on the sociolinguistic
investigation of the dynamics between mobility and immobility as experienced
by migrants, asylum seekers and members of minority or exploited groups.
Central to the book is an exploration of how mobilities are affected by and in
turn affect power relations and of the kinds of resources used by people to
deal with (im)mobility processes. The book brings to light a new critical
sociolinguistic imagination that is responsive to 21st century processes of
(im)mobilities as socially, discursively and emotionally constructed and
negotiated.
