It presents the results of an ethnographic study of code-switching and language ideologies among transnational, luso-descendant youngsters attending a number of youth centres in Luxembourg city. It offers a comprehensive description of the processes of construction and negotiation of new, emergent identities and ethnicities.\u003cbr\u003e The author considers the implications of these results for language-in-education policy, including the EU policy of multilingualism. He criticizes mother-tongue education and advocates instead the use of «literacy bridges». Clearly argued and widely applicable, this book is essential reading for students and researchers interested in multilingualism, migration and education.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eContents\u003c\/i\u003e: Sociolinguistics – Multilingualism – Language-in-education – Luxembourg – Portuguese – Language ideologies – Code-Switching – Literacy bridge.","brand":"Peter Lang AG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51044192289111,"sku":"9783631572856","price":46.17,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9783631572856.jpg?v=1750960816","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/multilingualism-education-and-change-9783631572856","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
