This book is one of the first systematic studies to describe the
linguistic repertoire and the communicative strategies adopted by
Ghanaian immigrants in Italy. The linguistic repertoire of the
Ghanaian community in Bergamo (Northern Italy) is described with a
special focus on the different codes composing it. The author
analyzes the role that each code plays in expressing the community
members' ethnic and linguistic identity, and the speakers'
attitudes towards each code. She draws on the results of
qualitative analysis - adopting both a macro-sociolinguistic and a
micro-socio-linguistic perspective - of a database of face-to-face
interactions and of formal interviews involving a selected group of
Ghanaian immigrants.
