Originally published in 1992. This provocative and controversial
book calls for a critical analysis of the philosophical assumptions
underpinning sociolinguistics. Going back to the philosophical
roots of the study of language in society, it argues that they lie
in the consensual attitude to society derived from eighteenth and
nineteenth-century social thought. The leading figures in the field
are challenged for their unequivocal acceptance of the sociological
theory on which they draw. For researchers of language in society,
this book emphasises the sociological rather than the linguistic
side of the subject.
