Dialogic Nation is a study of language use and ideology in Cape Verde. It weaves together historical, linguistic, and ethnographic research on the Cape Verdean Kriolu and its relation to Portuguese, showing how the legacies of slavery structure contemporary language practices, which in turn inform the imagining of a sovereign, creole nation.
