Part I: Introduction: Sociocultural and Sociolinguistic Backgrounds -- Dialect Issues in Multilingual China: A Dog That Has Barked -- The Politics and Sociolinguistics of Chinese Dialects -- Part II: Conceptual and Methodological Frameworks -- Researching Language Attitudes in Multilingual China -- Part III: Becoming Members of a Multidialectal City -- Mother Tongues of a Multidialectal City -- Language Socialisation in Multidialectal Households: a Case Study -- Part IV: Putonghua and Regional Dialects at School -- Language Socialisation in Educational Institutions -- Teachers Attitudes towards Dialects in School -- Part V: Discussion and Reflection -- Problematizing the Monolingual Norm in a Multidialectal City -- Schools in the Era of Multilingualism -- Language Attitudes in Heteroglossia: Methodological Reflections -- Appendix I: The Students Profiles -- Appendix II: The Schools and the Teachers Profiles.

These in-depth case studies provide novel insights in to the fast-changing language situation in multilingual China, and how it changes the meanings of language identity and language learning. This linguistic ethnographic study of language attitudes and identities in contemporary China in the era of multilingualism provides a comprehensive and critical review of the state of the art in the field of language-attitude research, and situates attitudes towards Chinese regional dialects in their social, historical as well as local contexts. The role of language policies and the links between the interactional phenomena and other contextual factors are investigated through the multi-level analysis of linguistic ethnographic data. This study captures the long-term language socialisation process and the moment-to-moment construction of language attitudes at a level of detail that is rarely seen. The narrative is presented in a highly readable style, without compromising the theoretical sophistication and sociolinguistic complexities.
