Recenzii

“The study is oriented to scholars interested in understanding FLP from a language-shift perspective and provides a comprehensive overview of the field, likely useful to researchers and graduate students. … The volume highlights the importance of studying autochthonous minority language contexts (such as Scottish Gaelic) and the role of interaction among extended family members.” (Muhammad Ahmad Alasmari, Language Policy, Vol. 18, 2019)
“The volume is a pioneer in the study of FLP and its relation to language shift. … as the first book-length treatment of FLP, this work will be a great resource for both undergraduate and graduate students in language education, sociolinguistics and bilingualism, as well as for researchers interested in minority-language development and maintenance, language socialisation and linguistic ideologies.” (Juyoung Song, Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, Vol. 38 (1), March, 2017)
