Multilingualism in Italian Migrant Settings investigates the plural linguistic practices of the migrants in a particular refugee centre in Italy, the CAS (centri di accoglienza straordinaria; "extraordinary refugee centre").

This book offers a practical and rigorous study of contact situations surrounding migrants from areas with complex repertoires. Language is inherently connected to migration, especially through its role as a principal tool for communication.

This volume places multilingualism in migratory contexts to comprehend how plurilingual migrants move freely between languages, and to evaluate their role in the linguistic landscape of the host country.

This monograph will appeal to scholars specialising in sociolinguistics and contact linguistics. The volume will also be informative for postgraduate students in the field of sociolinguistics, with a focus on migration and language use.

Luca Iezzi is a postdoctoral fellow at "G. d'Annunzio" University of Chieti-Pescara (Italy). His major research interests include the sociolinguistics of immigration in Italy, contact phenomena in spoken and written communication, as well as maintenance and shift of minority languages in societal and educational contexts. He has authored various research articles and book chapters on these topics. He has also taught English, and holds several Cambridge TESOL certifications.
