The subject of this book is linguistic minorities and social
change, seen through the lens of a linguistic minority school,
meeting the challenges of globalization. This is a core topic for
sociolinguists, linguistic anthropologists, applied linguists and
educators who are concerned about what multilingualism means in
today's world. Through a careful examination of the language
practices in the daily life of a minority language school, Monica
Heller explores issues such as nationalism, language policy,
bilingualism, identity, power, ideology, race, class, gender and
sexuality, exploring their role in the increasing commodification
of identity and language. "Linguistic Minorities and Modernity" has
been revised throughout, and includes a new preface by the author.
