She is author of 'The dynamics of citizen sociolinguistics' (Journal of Sociolinguistics, 2018), the book Multilingualism - A Blessing and a Burden (2021, in Norwegian), co-editor of Language, Youth and Identity in the 21st Century (2015) and co-author of Multilingualism and Ageing (2020).

- Summary:
- "The Routledge Handbook of Language and Youth Culture offers the first essential grounding of critical youth studies within sociolinguistic research. Young people are often seen to be at the frontline of linguistic creativity and pioneering communicative technologies. Their linguistic practices are considered a primary means of exploring linguistic change as well as the role of language in social life, such as how language and identity, ideology and power intersect. Providing important insights into how young people think, feel, act, and communicate in the complexity of a polarised world, The Routledge Handbook of Language and Youth Culture is an invaluable resource for advanced students and researchers in disciplines including Sociolinguistics, Linguistic Anthropology, Multilingualism, Youth Studies and Sociology"-- Provided by publisher.
