In today’s globalised world, large-scale migration is the norm. A
contributing factor to the successful settlement of migrants is the
ability to access work and economic security. This book focuses on
the lived experiences of migrants who (try to) access the
workplace, and explores the barriers and support they encounter.
The editors bring together studies which look at the ways in which
inclusion and exclusion from the workplace are done linguistically
from historical, discourse analytical, narrative and language
assessment perspectives. The chapters represent an innovative,
holistic, intersectional and multidisciplinary approach to the
subject, and illustrate a wide range of analytical methods and
theoretical tools for the study of multilingualism and professional
identity. The rich empirical data contained in the book cover a
variety of professional contexts and countries, and the book will
appeal to both specialist and non-specialist audiences.
