Through case studies from around the world, this book illustrates
the opportunities and challenges facing families negotiating the
issues of language maintenance and language learning in the home.
Every family living in a bi/multilingual environment faces the
question of what language(s) to speak with their children and must
make a decision, consciously or otherwise, about these issues.
Exploring links between language policy in the home and wider
society in a range of diverse settings, the contributors utilize
various research tools, including interviews, questionnaires,
observations, and archival document analysis, to explore linguistic
ideologies and practices of family members in the home,
illuminating how these are shaped by macro-level societal
processes.
