Identity and Dialect Performance: A Study of Communities and Dialects
Edited by Reem Bassiouney
Published by Routledge Taylor & Francis Group

Dialect performance is related to identity construction and in a highly globalized world, the linguistic repertoire has increased rapidly, thereby changing our conventional assumptions about dialects and their usage.
