Code-switching, the alternating use of two or more languages within conversation, has become an increasingly topical field of research. This volume brings together contributions from a wide variety of sociolinguistic settings in which this phenomenon of "conversational code-switching" is observed. It addresses the structure, function and ideological value of such bilingual behaviour. The contributors question many views of code-switching on the empirical basis of many European and non-European contexts. By bringing together linguistic, anthropological and socio-psychological research, they aim to move towards a more realistic conception of bilingual conversational action. The international contributors include: Mark Sebba, Li Wei, Melissa Moyer, Yael Mashler, Ben Rampton and Jan Blommaert. This text should be of interest to students of bilingualism, sociolinguistics and psycholinguistics.
