This volume sets out to investigate the linguistic ecologies of
Singapore, Hong Kong, and Dubai, with chapters that combine
empirical and theoretical approaches to the sociolinguistics of
multilingualism. One important feature of this publication is that
the five parts of the collection deal with such key issues as the
historical dimension, language policies and language planning,
contemporary societal multilingualism, multilingual language
acquisition, and the localized Englishes of global cities. The
first four sections of the volume provide a multi-levelled and
finely-detailed description of multilingual diversity of three
global cities, while the final section discusses postcolonial
Englishes in the context of multilingual language acquisition and
language contact.
