Subject: [NIEM] Call for book proposals for a new series: Language, Migration
and Identity
From: Christabel Scaife <c.scaife@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
To: FORCED-MIGRATION-HISTORY@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Peter Lang would like to announce the launch of a new scholarly book series:
Language, Migration and Identity
Series Editor: Professor Vera Regan, University College Dublin
This series fills a hitherto neglected but now growing area in the treatment of
migration: the role of language and identity. This topic is central in a
globalized world where the definition of community is constantly challenged by
the increased mobility of individuals. Linked to this mobility is the issue of
identity construction, in which language plays a key role. Language practices
are indicators of the socialization process in bilingual and multilingual
settings, and part of the strategies by which speakers assert membership within
social groups. Migrant speakers are constantly engaged in identity construction
in varying settings.
Language, Migration and Identityinvitesproposals for revised dissertations,
monographs and edited volumes on language practices and language use by migrant
speakers. A wide range of themes is envisaged, within the area of migration,
but from a broadly linguistic perspective. The series welcomes studies of
migrant communities and their language practices, studies of language practices
in multilingual educational settings, and case studies of identity building
among migrants through language use. Proposals might focus on topics such as
second language acquisition in social context, variation in L2 speech,
multilingualism, acquisition of sociolinguistic competence, hybridity and
‘crossing’ in relation to identity. A multiplicity of approaches in the
treatment of this interdisciplinary area will be welcome, from quantitative to
ethnographic to mixed methods.
The series welcomes established scholars as well as early career academics and
recent PhD research.
For information on how to submit a book proposal, please contact Christabel
Scaife, Commissioning Editor, Peter Lang Ltd, c.scaife@xxxxxxxxxxxxx.
