Language and Interaction in the Chinese Community in Cameroon
"This book is the first in-depth treatment from a linguistic perspective of the Chinese presence in Africa. It is essentially a detailed study on communication in various domains between Chinese immigrants in Cameroon and the local community with whom they interact. In eight chapters this well-organized book is able to give a relatively detailed sociolinguistic description of the host country, Cameroon, provide a good theoretical background of the study, outline the methodology used for the study which involved mainly a questionnaire survey, semi-structured interviews, and field observations before drawing conclusions to the study. This is a brilliant contribution to a growing literature on the global Chinese diaspora." Adams Bodomo, Professor of African Studies (Chair of Linguistics and Literatures) at the University of Vienna, Austria

Der Vagabundenblog
Auf einmal verwirklichte sich Michelles grosser, lange gehegter Traum: ein Jahr lang ohne Geld zu leben - in Frankreich. Von ihrem abenteuerlichen und geradezu phantastischen Leben und ihren Begegnungen mit Menschen erzählt sie auf ihrem Vagabundenblog. Sie hat daraus ein Buch gemacht, um ihren Leser*innen die Möglichkeit zu geben, es überall zu lesen. Aber bitte nur häppchenweise, denn es ist prall gefülltes Leben! Für Michelle war das Jahr (fast) ohne Geld das glücklichste Jahr ihres Lebens. Das Buch ist nach dem Motto "nicht perfekt, aber lebendig" geschrieben und freut sich, wenn es auch unter diesem Motto gelesen wird.
Netzwerke der Zugehörigkeit knüpfen
Lokalität und Zugehörigkeit sind entscheidende Bestandteile von und zugleich Voraussetzungen für Nachbarschaft. In Khartum und Omdurman werden damit stabile Netzwerke gebildet, von denen vor allem diejenigen profitieren, die nicht zur politischen und ökonomischen Elite gehören. Diese Nachbarschaftsbeziehungen zeichnen sich durch Fürsorge, Reziprozität und Verlässlichkeit aus. Zugleich sind die räumliche Nähe und die lokale Verankerung nachbarschaftlichen Lebens Voraussetzungen für die Entstehung von Zugehörigkeit. Nachbarschaft ist dabei sowohl unmittelbarer Lebensraum wie auch Imagination eines nationalen sudanesischen Selbstverständnisses, womit sich auch der Anspruch einer nationalen Repräsentation verbindet.
Language Policy and Identity Construction
The (dis)empowerment of languages through language policy in multilingual postcolonial communities often shapes speakers identification with these languages, their attitude towards other languages in the community, and their choices in interpersonal and intergroup communication. Focusing on the dynamics of Cameroon s multilingualism, this book contributes to current debates on the impact of politic language policy on daily language use in sociocultural and interpersonal interactions, multiple identity construction, indigenous language teaching and empowerment, the use of Cameroon Pidgin English in certain formal institutional domains initially dominated by the official languages, and linguistic patterns of social interaction for politeness, respect, and in-group bonding. Due to the multiple perspectives adopted, the book will be of interest to sociolinguists, applied linguists, pragmaticians, Afrikanists, and scholars of postcolonial linguistics."
