Why is it important?

This paper contributes to the understanding of the expression of stance as an act of identity within interaction based on the study of linguistic practices as social practices

Perspectives

I hope that this article helps people to understand that language practices shape the social world and the social world shapes language practices. And that there is a link between them that need to be studied through ethnographic perspectives.
