Opis

This comprehensive book offers insightful crossnational and crosscontinental perspectives on mapping linguistic diversity in a variety of multicultural contexts, both in Europe and abroad, and in both the private and public domain, particularly in terms of spoken languages at home and visual languages on the street. Methodological issues and empirical outcomes are explored for a variety of European and non-European countries and languages.
