Historia sociolingüística de México
La riqueza y la complejidad lingüísticas que se dan en el vasto territorio mexicano son de suyo una incitante invitación al análisis y a la historia. Tal es el objetivo final de esta Historia sociolingüística de México: narrar desde varias perspectivas la historia de las lenguas y, en especial, la de los hablantes en México a lo largo de los siglos, tanto en términos de consenso como de conflicto. Múltiples miradas convergen en esta historia en torno a los diversos procesos que han imbricado lenguas y hablantes en el paradójico México pluriétnico. Siguiendo con su objetivo original, en este volumen 4 se busca ampliar el conocimiento de más lenguas y familias lingüísticas que plasman la diversidad de diversidades lingüísticas de nuestro país.
