Over the past 40 years, Jim Cummins has proposed a number of highly
influential theoretical concepts, including the threshold and
interdependence hypotheses and the distinction between
conversational fluency and academic language proficiency. In this
book, he provides a personal account of how these ideas developed
and he examines the credibility of critiques they have generated,
using the criteria of empirical adequacy, logical coherence, and
consequential validity. These criteria of theoretical legitimacy
are also applied to the evaluation of two different versions of
translanguaging theory - Unitary Translanguaging Theory and
Crosslinguistic Translanguaging Theory - in a way that
significantly clarifies this controversial concept.
