  • Divided into two sections, this chapter presents Lusophone Africa as a multilingual region and offers an overview centered on recent sociolinguistic studies with a focus on Portuguese, including the widely spoken Portuguese-lexified creoles of Africa. The first section includes a brief literature review consisting primarily of studies about language contact, variation and bi-/multilingualism from a sociohistorical perspective with an emphasis on Portuguese-lexified creoles and African varieties of Portuguese. The second section focuses on recurring topics in Applied African Sociolinguistics during the last decade, mainly related to language and power and frequently applied to language-in-education and general language policies. The final remarks point out selected topics that merit further study.
