In 28 newly commissioned chapters distinguished contributors
provide an up-to-date overview of sociolinguistics. This invaluable
work of reference identifies the most important issues of
sociolinguistics, makes primary sources more accessible, and
provides orientation for future research. Reflecting the main
division within the discipline, the two key sections deal with the
social dimensions of language and the linguistic dimensions of
society. In addition, there is an introductory section taking issue
with theoretical and methodological foundations of
sociolinguistics. The final part introduces four areas in which the
application of sociolinguistic knowledge has proved to be
especially fruitful in recent years; education, bilingual
education, the legal profession, and language planning. The
Handbook is equipped with a comprehensive bibliography which can be
used as a research tool in its own right.
