The Routledge Handbook of Migration and Language is the first comprehensive survey of the intersection between language and human mobility in today’s globalised world. Now in its newly updated second edition, this handbook broadens its scope to include chapters on the mobility of disabled people, ethics of working with vulnerable migrant groups, and diversifying knowledge production relating to mobility.
This vital resource combines interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary perspectives across fields such as migration studies, geography, philosophy, sociology and anthropology. Featuring over thirty chapters written by leading experts from around the world, this book:
Examines how core constructs such as community, place, language, diversity, identity, nation-state, and social stratification are being retheorized in the context of human mobility;
Analyses the impact of the ‘mobility turn’ on language use, including the parallel ‘multilingual turn’ and the concept of translanguaging;
Discusses the migration of skilled and unskilled workers, various forms of displacement, and new superdiverse and diaspora communities;
Explores new research orientations and methodologies, such as mobile and participatory research, multi-sited ethnography, and the mixing of research methods;
Investigates the place of language in citizenship, educational policies, employment and social services.
This handbook is a foundational text for researchers and students interested in migration studies, language policy, sociolinguistics, and development studies.
