Language, Identity and Migration: Voices from Transnational Speakers and Communities
Edited by Vera Regan, Chloé Diskin, and Jennifer Martyn
Published by Peter Lang International Academic Publishers

This volume presents a collection of the latest scholarly research on language, migration and identity. In a globalized world where migratory patterns are in constant flux, the traditional notion of the ‘immigrant’ has shifted to include more fluid perspectives of the migrant as a transnational and the language learner as a complex individual possessing a range of dynamic social and contextual identities. This book presents a variety of studies of transnational speakers and communities. It includes research conducted within both established and emerging methodological traditions and frameworks and explores a wide range of contexts and geographical locations, from the multilingual language classroom to the migrant experience, and from Ireland to Eritrea.
