The impact of mobility and superdiversity in recent sociolinguistic
research is well-established, yet very few studies deal with issues
related to immobility. The chapters in this book focus on the
sociolinguistic investigation of the dynamics between mobility and
immobility as experienced by migrants, asylum seekers and members
of minority or exploited groups. Central to the book is an
exploration of how mobilities are affected by and in turn affect
power relations and of the kinds of resources used by people to
deal with (im)mobility processes. The book brings to light a new
critical sociolinguistic imagination that is responsive to 21st
century processes of (im)mobilities as socially, discursively and
emotionally constructed and negotiated.
