The phenomenon of bilingualism and multilingualism, viewed from three main perspectives of Applied Linguistics: a sociolinguistic, psycholinguistic, and didactic one.


This volume comprises 16 chapters – both research papers and theoretical contributions – grouped in three thematic sections. The chapters in the first part, entitled “Discourse Communities: Languages in Contact,” adopt a social and/or historical perspective on bi-/multilingualism. The contributions in the second part, entitled “Languages in the Mind: Language Development and language Use,” view issues related to bi- and multilingualism from psycholinguistic and psychological perspectives. The chapters comprising the third part, “Language Education: Supporting Multilingual Development,” adopt a broadly understood didactic perspective on bi-/multilingualism.
