Abstract

In 2010, scholars of language and culture developed broader and more dynamic ways to understand traditional approaches in the anthropological study of language, reframed our analyses of communicative events, created new ways to understand the co-construction of languages and social organizations from the family to the nation-state, and forged activist partnerships with the communities we worked with on issues including social justice, language revitalization, and education. In this review article, I reflect on 2010 work in journals, books, and conference papers within the field of linguistic anthropology and in associated disciplines. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
