This book contributes to understanding research approaches for
studying multilingualism in the context of contemporary
superdiversity, in environments that are being dramatically
transformed by transnational migration and movement of peoples. It
explores language in urban contexts: the city as a site for
experimentation and creativity in language practices. This involves
considering theoretical frameworks in which to examine these
practices, but above all, it focuses on how we do, or could do,
research into these language practices and their users. What
methodologies are we using to understand urban linguistic contexts?
What do we want to learn? The chapters explore complex and
challenging situations, capturing the evolution of new forms of
language practice and changing attitudes to language in the city.
