<p><strong>'This volume is most suited for upper-level graduate students and researchers with backgrounds in sociolinguistics and a good grasp of economics, processes of globalization, and Bourdieusian Social Theory. Because of its prominent interdisciplinary and methodological diversity, scholars outside of sociolinguistics (and even the social sciences) may find it of benefit, as well. Perhaps one of the strongest attributes of the volume as a whole is its ability to maintain a unifying theme without adopting an overly-dogmatic stance in terms of pushing a unified theory. As a result, the authors offer their own analyses as models for continued investigation and critique, thus opening possibilities for continued fruitful research.'</strong><em>- Linguist List</em></p>
<p><strong>'The authors effectively demonstrate the immensely complex nature of how 'pride' and 'profit' function, and also reveal how richly and powerfully pervasive these tropes are.'</strong> - <em>LINGUIST List</em></p><p><strong>'Overall, <em>Language in Late Capitalism: Pride and Profit</em>, a fitting volume in the <em>Routledge Critical Studies in Multilingualism</em> series, is a fascinating and insightful contribution to the field. Each of the contributors successfully illustrates the complex nature of âprideâ and âprofitâ tropes in late capitalism, giving the volume as a whole a number of strengths. It illustrates how interdisciplinary research studies have the potential to lead to important findings and novel observations. Additionally, the wide range of methodologies on which the contributions are based adds to the depth and breadth of the analyses provided. Also, while sticking to the general theme of the volume, each contributorâs argument is genuinely original. This has resulted in a range of fresh ideas for future research.'</strong> - <em>Vahid Parvaresh, University of Isfahan, Iran</em></p>
