The book brings to the fore the issue of collective identity and
analyzes it from the linguistic perspective. Addressing the problem,
the authors demonstrate ways in which the language we use in everyday
life enables us to construct and perform in a flexible and
context-bound manner the sense of our belonging in a community. They
offer some rich data and present strong arguments in favor of
qualitative methodologies for research in the field. Drawing on
numerous interactional settings, and amongst different communities,
the contributors shed new light on how our language practices and
non-verbal behaviors mold our collective identities.
