Abstract:

The contributors argue that multilingual repertoires are shaped by
various forms of mobility – physical, symbolic, and digital. Across
diverse contexts, mobility generates new linguistic resources,
reshapes identities, and prompts individuals to negotiate belonging
and power. They show that multilingualism is flexible, emotionally
charged, and deeply tied to social hierarchies, conflict, and shifting
ideologies. While mobility can foster hybridity and creativity, it can
also reinforce exclusion and nationalism. Overall, the volume
highlights multilingualism as dynamic, contested, and central to
understanding contemporary social life.

Linguistic Field(s): Sociolinguistics
