Popis: Following an introductory chapter that establishes the theoretical framework of the verticalization model, this volume continues with a variety of case studies. One of the limiting factors of these case studies is that they are all based in the US. Although both the theoretical premise and the case studies make appeals to work that has been done globally, the authors invited two leading scholars with different perspectives on language maintenance and shift to engage critically with the verticalization model and examine its applicability beyond our US case studies. This chapter responds to the issues raised in the commentary chapters and makes suggestions for how the verticalization model might be applied to global situations. Further, the chapter suggests areas of further research and refinement of the theoretical framework.
