This is a book about language and education in one of the smallest
European Union member-states, Luxembourg. It presents the results
of an ethnographic study of code-switching and language ideologies
among transnational, luso-descendant youngsters attending a number
of youth centres in Luxembourg city. It offers a comprehensive
description of the processes of construction and negotiation of
new, emergent identities and ethnicities. The author considers the
implications of these results for language-in-education policy,
including the EU policy of multilingualism. He criticizes
mother-tongue education and advocates instead the use of "literacy
bridges." Clearly argued and widely applicable, this book is
essential reading for students and researchers interested in
multilingualism, migration and education.
