About this book
The study of linguistic variation in the Caribbean has been central to the emergence of Pidgin and Creole Linguistics as an academic field. It has yielded influential theory, such as the (post-)creole continuum or the 'Acts of Identity' models, that has shaped sociolinguistics far beyond creole settings. This volume collects current work in the field and focuses on methodological and theoretical innovations that continue, expand, and update the dialog between Caribbean variation studies and general sociolinguistics.
Reviews
Walter F. Edwards, Wayne State University, in World Englishes 33(3): 416-418, 2014:
This is an important book that scholars and their students working within both the world Englishes and Creole Studies frameworks will find very useful.
