Abstract:

The article presents an analytical review of new trends in Russian sociolinguistics of the XXI century. The author identifies three main trends: (1) reinterpretation and attempts to revise sociolinguistic concepts and terms; (2) emergence of new topics, approaches and methods from the Western social sciences; and (3) increasing interdisciplinarity in approaches and methods. Each trend is illustrated by separate representative examples. As such, the author considers: the native language category, the direction of ethnography of language policy, linguistic landscapes, language ideologies (in particular, “monolingual ideology”), the use of psycholinguistic and mathematical methods for sociolinguistic purposes.

Keywords: Russian sociolinguistics, sociolinguistic concepts and terms, interdisciplinarity, Western social sciences.
