This edited volume offers a comprehensive, interdisciplinary examination of Brexit as both a discursive construct and a lived, evolving reality. Bringing together ethnography, discourse analysis, and qualitative analysis of interviews, the chapters foreground migrant voices to explore how identity, language, and belonging are negotiated across shifting political and social landscapes. The book highlights key themes such as the fluidity of migrant identities, the role of language in sustaining transnational ties, the stratification of mobility, and the persistence of linguistic and racialised inequalities, including accentism and microaggressions. The volume is intended for scholars and students in sociolinguistics, migration studies, intercultural communication, and European studies, as well as policymakers and educators interested in language, identity, and integration. It will also appeal to researchers working on multilingualism, diaspora communities, and language ideologies. Readers will benefit from empirically grounded insights into the complex aftermath of Brexit, gaining a nuanced understanding of how macro-level political discourse intersects with micro-level experiences. This book will be of interest to scholars in sociolinguistics, discourse analysis, language and identity, and migration studies.
