** Winner of AAAL Book Award 2020 ** **Shortlisted for the BAAL
Book Prize 2018** The Routledge Handbook of Migration and Language
is the first comprehensive survey of this area, exploring language
and human mobility in today's globalised world. This key reference
brings together a range of interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary
perspectives, drawing on subjects such as migration studies,
geography, philosophy, sociology and anthropology. Featuring over
30 chapters written by leading experts from around the world, this
book: Examines how basic constructs such as community, place,
language, diversity, identity, nation-state, and social
stratification are being retheorized in the context of human
mobility; Analyses the impact of the 'mobility turn' on language
use, including the parallel 'multilingual turn' and
translanguaging; Discusses the migration of skilled and unskilled
workers, different forms of displacement, and new superdiverse and
diaspora communities; Explores new research orientations and
methodologies, such as mobile and participatory research,
multi-sited ethnography, and the mixing of research methods;
Investigates the place of language in citizenship, educational
policies, employment and social services. The Routledge Handbook of
Migration and Language is essential reading for those with an
interest in migration studies, language policy, sociolinguistic
research and development studies.
