International Research In Sociolinguistics-I_{Language, Identity, and Society in Kosovo}

The present volume contains twenty-six chapters, the final one authored by the editor. It brings together research exploring the profound relationship between language, identity, and society in Kosovo while addressing a broad spectrum of sociolinguistic phenomena. Each chapter represents an original contribution by the student authors, demonstrating their ability to apply sociolinguistic concepts to locally grounded data. The studies investigate issues such as language maintenance and shift, gendered politeness, media discourse, digital identity, multilingual practices, bilingualism, code-switching, generational communication and variation, digital multilingualism, and online identity performance, offering a multifaceted view of how linguistic behaviour reflects and shapes social life in Kosovo.
