Language and Belonging: Local Categories and Practices in a Guatemalan Highland Community - Sprachliche Konstruktion sozialer Grenzen: Identitaeten und Zugehoerigkeiten / Linguistic Construction of Social Boundaries: Identities and Belonging
Rita Vallentin
The book deals with the relationship between speakers' sense of belonging and their language use by examining their interactions in a Guatemalan community. The analysis shows that belonging is tied to the use of social, spatial and temporal categories, the relations between them, and collectively shared linguistic practices.
