Abstract:

Contact linguistics is the overarching term for a highly diversified
field with branches that connect to such widely divergent areas as
historical linguistics, typology, sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics,
and grammatical theory. Because of this diversification, there is a
risk of fragmentation and lack of interaction between the different
subbranches of contact linguistics. Nevertheless, the different
approaches share the general goal of accounting for the results of
interacting linguistic systems. This common goal opens up
possibilities for active communication, cooperation, and coordination
between the different branches of contact linguistics. This book,
therefore, explores the extent to which contact linguistics can be
viewed as a coherent field, and whether the advances achieved in a
particular subfield can be translated to others. In this way our aim
is to encourage a boundary-free discussion between different types of
specialists of contact linguistics, and to stimulate cross-pollination
between them.
