This book explores the role of place names in the formation and
maintenance of individual and group identities in multilingual and
multi-ethnic situations. Using examples from Austria and Czechia as
case studies, the authors examine the power of place names through
an interdisciplinary and multi-methods approach that draws from the
fields of anthropology, geography, sociolinguistics and
toponomastics. The book contextualises both places within their
social and political histories, and probes recent debates in the
social sciences relating to place names, identity and power. It
will be of interest to scholars and students focusing on place
names and naming practices, minority communities and languages, and
linguistic landscapes.
