CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE SOCIOLOGY OF LANGUAGE brings to students, researchers and practitioners in all of the social and language-related sciences carefully selected book-length publications dealing with sociolinguistic theory, methods, findings and applications. It approaches the study of language in society in its broadest sense, as a truly international and interdisciplinary field in which various approaches, theoretical and empirical, supplement and complement each other. The series invites the attention of linguists, language teachers of all interests, sociologists, political scientists, anthropologists, historians etc. to the development of the sociology of language.

Li Wei is Professor of Applied Linguistics at the University of Newcastle upon Tyne, UK. Jean-Marc Dewaele is Senior Lecturer in French at Birkbeck College, London, UK. Alex Housen is Lecturer at the Vrije Universiteit, Brussels, Belgium.

"All in all, however, the present book is a readable, informative, and highly recommended, serval small proofing omissions notwithstanding. For those who have just started their journey into the dense forest of bilingualism, this book will be a good guide to theories and major issues of societal bilingualism, such as language planning, managing, ideology and maintenance/shift. To those who are already familiar with the field, the cases reported from various parts of the world should be quite intriguing and provide rich resources as well."Masayo Yamamoto in: Language and Education 18, 5-2004
