Sociolinguistics: other interfaces, new applications (v.16, 2026)

Continuing the work ‘Sociolinguistics: interfaces and applications,’ we propose, for this dossier, the presentation of research that explores other theoretical-methodological connections based on the classical apparatus of Sociolinguistics, as well as new fields of application, with the purpose of presenting to the reader the broad scope of contemporary Sociolinguistics. We welcome theoretical articulations, interdisciplinary practices and applications in various fields of knowledge that have sociolinguistics as their starting point or destination, as a theoretical or methodological partner, or as a guiding thread for analysis to understand variation and change. Through interfaces and applications, we aim to show the vitality of sociolinguistics: while maintaining its basic premises, it adapts to new times.
