This volume deals with several types of contact languages: pidgins, creoles, mixed languages, and multi-ethnolects. It also approaches contact languages from two perspectives: an historical linguistic perspective, more specifically from a viewpoint of genealogical linguistics, language descent and linguistic family tree models and a sociolinguistic perspective, identifying specific social contexts in which contact languages emerge.

"This collection forms an exhaustive volume on contact languages in a way that not only thoroughly summarizes and challenges traditional theories and models pertaining to this field of study, but also provides newer approaches to analyzing contact languages, their origins, and methods of classification, and as such, lays the framework for further investigation on contact languages."
