Recenzii

"The authors convincingly refute the popular claims and ideologies of English Only legislation, basing their arguments on research data as well as considerations of what it means to live in a democratic society....this book can be a valuable resource for educators, researchers, and the general public. Using a global perspective that is informative as well as cautionary, these essays implore us to consider our connection to others around the world as the policies enacted by the United States become models for other nations that wish to enforce linguistic homogeneity among their citizens."
Language Arts
"In all, this volume succeeds admirably in providing a multidimensional picture of the official English movement, illuminating the nuances of the ideological underpinnings at its core. Collectively, the authors contributing to this book disentangle the rhetoric that has become pervasive in the political discourse surrounding English Only in the United States and clarify the movement's social as well as legal ramifications."
