This paper compares the research on ethnolects in two regions of Europe, the German (Germany, Austria, and Switzerland) and Netherlandic (Flanders and the Netherlands) speaking areas. We compare the research on this topic with the social constellations (immigration) and political debate (public perceptions of and reactions to this immigration) in the context of which these outcomes are produced and interpreted.

Keywords: attitudes, Austria, Belgium, Dutch, ethnolects, German, Germany, immigration, Netherlands, Switzerland
