Language Policies and (Dis)Citizenship: Rights, Access, Pedagogies de Vaidehi Ramanathan

Language Policies and (Dis)Citizenship: Rights, Access, Pedagogies

Autor Vaidehi Ramanathan
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 8 aug 2013
This volume explores the concept of 'citizenship', and argues that it should be understood as the ability to participate fully, rather than as a status that can be inherited, acquired, or achieved. The authors use local contexts to foreground how the vulnerable, particularly those from minority language backgrounds, continue to be excluded.

Recenzii

In this thought-provoking volume, Vaidehi Ramanathan and colleagues push forward the boundaries of research on language and citizenship, foregrounding human agency and the situated and processual nature of citizenship. The volume opens with a beautifully written, agenda-setting Introduction by Ramanathan and then, in the chapters that follow, we encounter detailed and illuminating accounts of the ways in which language practices are bound up with situated citizenship processes at work in different social and political contexts. Marilyn Martin-Jones, University of Birmingham, UK Citizenship has become the major bureaucratic mechanism extensively used nowadays to grant and deny basic human rights for education, residence and well being. Whether via language as a condition for reside or visas as the right of children to learn, citizenship has become the controlling device for everyday lives of million of disadvantaged people world wide. In this most stimulating book Professor Vaidehi Ramanathan, along with major distinguished and thoughtful authors, has created a brilliant critical text that documents and analyzes the phenomenon in a multiple range of settings world-wide focusing on ages, pedagogies, policies, languages, gender and access. Elana Shohamy, Tel Aviv University, Israel This is an excellent collection of articles, thoughtfully compiled by an insightful and innovative editor. Topics cover a range of important contemporary issues in diverse regions of the world. A significant contribution to applied linguistics. Bonny Norton, Professor and Distinguished University Scholar, University of British Columbia, Canada This is an exceptional and refreshing book which presents rigorous and significant research on language policy and citizenship. Authors develop a critical stance to illustrate how the vulnerable continue to be excluded from many institutions while simultaneously offering an uplifting account of how human agency, resistance and struggle can offer vital alternatives. It is relevant to a wide audience and should be compulsory reading for those in the social sciences, education and applied linguistics at both undergraduate and graduate level. Angela Creese, University of Birmingham, UK
