This volume focuses on sociolinguistic landscapes, the use and functions of everyday semiotic items in space. Signs reflect societal change and enable the mapping of how linguistic resources are used and interpreted in various contexts. The articles, drawing from ethnographic observations, make use of both quantitative and qualitative research tools.
