Abstract	:	The Spanish language is in contact with many languages throughout the world, from minority regional languages in the Iberian Peninsula to indigenous languages throughout Latin America. Despite the volume of research on Spanish in contact with other languages, many previous studies have not adequately engaged with the theoretical contact literature, in terms of accounting for relevant social factors that affect variation in situations of language contact. This is to say, much of the previous research has been concerned with linguistic innovation in trying to demonstrate that the origin of a particular variant was contact-induced, at the expense of determining which social factors propagate language change in bilingual speech communities.
