Description: Focusing on urban youth culture and language crossing this foundational volume by Ben Rampton has played a pivotal role in the shaping of language and ethnic identity as a domain of study. It focuses on language crossing - the use of Panjabi by adolescents of African - Caribbean and Anglo descent the use of Creole by adolescents with Panjabi and Anglo backgrounds and the use of stylized Indian English. Crossing's central question is: how far and in what ways do these intricate processes of language sharing and exchange help to overcome race stratification and contribute to a new sense of mixed youth class and neighbourhood community? Ben Rampton produces detailed ethnographic and interactional analyses of spontaneous speech data and integrates the discussion of particular incidents with theories of discourse code - switching social movements resistance and ritual drawn from sociolinguistics sociology anthropology and cultural studies. Now a Routledge Linguistics Classic with a new preface which sets the work in its current context this book remains key reading for all those working in the areas of applied linguistics sociolinguistics and linguistic anthropology.
