  1. Sociology of language

    sociology Sociology of language focuses on the language s effect on the society . It is closely related to the field of sociolinguistics , which focuses on the effect of the society on the language. One of its longest and most prolific proponents is Joshua Fishman , who among other major contributions, founded and still edits the International Journal of the Sociology of Language . A sociology of language would seek to understand the way that social dynamics are affected by individual and group language use. It would have to do with who is authorized to use what language, with whom and under what conditions. It would have to do with how an individual or group identity is established by the language that they have available for them to use. It would seek to understand individual expression, one s libidinal investment in the linguistic tools that one has access to in order to bring oneself to other people.
