Towards a Critical Sociolinguistics
Rajendra Singh (Ed.)
This collection of 12 essays by European and North-American sociolinguists offers a multi-pronged and multi-methodological way to move towards a critical, reflexive and theoretically responsible socio-linguistics. It explores some areas in the enormous space between Bloomfieldian "idiolect" and Chomskyan "UG" in order to situate the human linguistic enterprise, and offers valuable insights into human linguisticality and sociality. Intended for both practising and future sociolinguists, it can be used as a textbook, particularly for graduate and advanced undergraduate students.
