The Contributions to the Sociology of Language series features publications dealing with sociolinguistic theory, methods, findings and applications. It addresses the study of language in society in its broadest sense, as a truly international and interdisciplinary field in which various approaches - theoretical and empirical - supplement and complement each other. The series invites the attention of scholars interested in language in society from a broad range of disciplines - anthropology, education, history, linguistics, political science, and sociology.

Spanish in New York is a groundbreaking sociolinguistic analysis of
immigrant bilingualism in a U.S. setting. Drawing on one of the
largest corpora of spoken Spanish ever assembled for a single city,
Otheguy and Zentella demonstrate the extent to which the language
of Latinos in New York City represents a continuation of structural
variation as it is found in Latin America, as well as the extent to
which Spanish has evolved in New York City. Their study, which
focuses on language contact, dialectal leveling, and structural
continuity, carefully distinguishes between the influence of
English and the mutual influences of forms of Spanish with roots in
different parts of Latin America.
