The volume establishes a point of contact with the work of Coupland, Giles and associates starting in the 1980's, and shows how it can be extended today to go beyond the early focus on detrimental aspects of aging. The contributors address social communication within and across age cohorts in all major age categories: the elderly, middle-aged, teenagers and children. The social skewing of the research presented explains the volume's focus on the discursive construction of social identities, with age implicated as a viable controller of how social action is strategically deployed for alignment and alienation, accommodation and divergence. The authors emphasize that a discourse construction of age and ageing is particularly important in the face of new challenges of globalization, increased human mobility and rising intergenerational conflicts. 410 0$aLanguage, power, and social process ;$v28. 606 $aIntergenerational relations 606 $aLanguage and culture 606 $aLanguage and languages$xAge differences 606 $aSociolinguistics 610 $aCultural Studies. 610 $aDiscourse Analysis. 610 $aSociolinguistics. 615 0$aIntergenerational relations. 615 0$aLanguage and culture. 615 0$aLanguage and languages$xAge differences. 615 0$aSociolinguistics. 676 $a306.44 686 $aES 100$2rvk 701 $aDuszak$b Anna$0738278 701 $aOkulska$b Urszula$01594379 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910814896303321 996 $aLanguage, culture and the dynamics of age$93914910 997 $aUNINA
