Documenting Gen '95Er Voices from Catalonia Globalizing Ideologies and Ways of Speaking - Language and Globalization

This book documents linguistic practices and ideologies toward language, identity, 
and nationalism among 35 members of the first generation in Spain to grow up with 
democracy and Catalan language normalization. Part I reproduces, translates, and 
analyzes artifacts (1975-1998) concerning language shift, linguistic nationalism, and 
Europeanization, illustrating contemporaneous sociologies of language and 
globalization in Catalonia. Part II transcribes, translates, and ethnographically 
analyzes oral histories from 2017 Barcelona Metro, detailing ways of speaking (about 
topics like identity, cultural malaise, politics, and self-determination) involving 
globalization processes. Part III analyzes variation in ideologies and ideological 
changes (1995-2017) based on childhood linguistic exposure and adult network ties, 
unpacking emergent lexical coding that indexes globalizing values and worldviews. 
This book will be of interest to fields including sociolinguistics, linguistic anthropology, 
sociology, communications, political science, Iberian studies, and Catalan studies.
