Reviews

This is an exciting and novel attempt to revise contemporary work in sociolinguistics by asking for local rather than global Western views of the situation in various parts of the world. It does this without ignoring the existence of current scholarship, but adds important new perspectives that come from the addition of local expertise. As a result, it will no doubt enrich our understanding of a complex and important field. Bernard Spolsky, Bar-Ilan University, Israel A healthy corrective for virtually anyone working in the field... readers will surely discover research that is new to them, relevant to what they do, and intellectually engaging and rewarding. Gerard van Herk, MUN, Canada, Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development
