This book is the fruition of five years’ work in exploring the idea
of superdiversity. The editors argue that sociolinguistic
superdiversity could be a source of inspiration to a wide range of
post-structuralist, post-colonial and neo-Marxist interdisciplinary
research into the potential and the limits of human cultural
creativity and societal renewal under conditions of increasing and
complexifying global connectivity. Through case studies of language
practices in spaces understood as inherently translocal and
multi-layered (classrooms and schools, youth spaces, mercantile spaces
and nation-states), this book explores the relevance of superdiversity
for the social and human sciences and positions it as a research
perspective in sociolinguistics and beyond.
