Produktinformationen zu „Family Language Policy “
Klappentext zu „Family Language Policy “
This book explores the question of family language policy in multilingual households. Presenting six case studies which focus on the experiences of parents and children in French-English bilingual contexts, the author draws conclusions about the impact of parental language management on the family as a whole which can be applied to transnational families from other linguistic backgrounds. While many parental guides on bilingual childrearing have been published in recent years, little attention has been paid to the possible impact of such language strategies on the experiences and interrelationships of bilingual family members. This book is unique in focusing in depth on the psychology and experiences of the child, and it will be of interest to readers in fields as diverse as sociolinguistics, language policy and planning, sociology of youth and family, and child psychology.

Pressezitat
"FLP is not only about languages spoken in a family or the bilingual skills of children. It also involves circumstances and situations related to family members ... . This book reveals the multilayered and complex dynamics of FLP distinctively. Each family is unique, each family member has a unique FLP, and they have their own definitions of a successful FLP. ... this book stands as one of the encouraging triggers to dive into the complexity of FLP." (Irem Bezcioglu-Göktolga, Sociolinguistic Studies, Vol. 16 (2-3), 2022)
