The New Cockney provides a sociolinguistic account of speech variation among adolescents in the 'traditional' East End of London. Embedded in its social context, it focuses on the interaction and social practices within a single community and highlights some of the possible mechanisms for language change.

Susan Fox is a Researcher in Linguistics at Queen Mary, University of London, UK. She specialises in variationist sociolinguistics, and is principally interested in language variation and change, using both quantitative and qualitative methods of analysis. Her research work has focused mainly on the social and historical contexts that have led to the variety of English that is spoken in London today.
