Synopsis Language Planning and Student Experiences by : Joseph LoBianco
This book is a timely comparison of the divergent worlds of policy implementation and policy ambition, the messy, often contradictory here-and-now reality of languages in schools and the sharp-edged, shiny, future-oriented representation of languages in policy. Two deep rooted tendencies in Australian political and social life, multiculturalism and Asian regionalism, are represented as key phases in the country’s experimentation with language education planning. Presenting data from a five year ethnographic study combined with a 40 year span of policy analysis, this volume is a rare book length treatment of the chasm between imagined policy and its experienced delivery, and will provide insights that policymakers around the world can draw on.

Synopsis Language Policy and Its Implementation by : Zuliati Rohmah
This book delves into the complex world of language policy (LP) and its implementation, examining it from various angles and contexts. The concept of LP is explored in detail, with different experts offering diverse definitions, from a body of rules and practices to a social construct. LP is shown to encompass everything from government laws to family practices, reflecting both ideologies and beliefs about language use in daily life. The book highlights the distinction between language policy and language planning, emphasizing LP's presence at various levels of society, from governmental laws to family dynamics. It is noted that not all language ideologies and practices necessarily translate into formal language policies. Each chapter in the book examines LP in different contexts, from university campuses to multinational companies, and family settings. The linguistic landscape is explored, encompassing a wide range of language practices and behaviors in public spaces. Various methodologies and analysis models, including the classification of text divisions based on Top-Down and Bottom-Up, are employed to study linguistic landscapes. Chapters delve into specific case studies, such as the influence of English on the Indonesian linguistic landscape and language contestation in a college students' culinary zone. The book also explores the role of the Indonesian language in international corporations in the United Arab Emirates, highlighting the importance of cross-cultural communication. The book aims to provide readers with valuable insights into language policy, linguistic landscape analysis, and sociolinguistic research. It serves as a resource for future researchers in social, linguistic, and cultural studies and offers society members a deeper understanding of specific areas, their language choices, and social conditions. Ultimately, the book serves as an in-depth analysis of language policy and its implications in various contexts, contributing to the field of language studies and sociolinguistics.

Synopsis The Handbook of Linguistics by : Mark Aronoff
"The first edition of this Handbook is built on surveys by well-known figures from around the world and around the intellectual world, reflecting several different theoretical predilections, balancing coverage of enduring questions and important recent work. Those strengths are now enhanced by adding new chapters and thoroughly revising almost all other chapters, partly to reflect ways in which the field has changed in the intervening twenty years, in some places radically. The result is a magnificent volume that can be used for many purposes." David W. Lightfoot, Georgetown University "The Handbook of Linguistics, Second Edition is a stupendous achievement. Aronoff and Rees-Miller have provided overviews of 29 subfields of linguistics, each written by one of the leading researchers in that subfield and each impressively crafted in both style and content. I know of no finer resource for anyone who would wish to be better informed on recent developments in linguistics." Frederick J. Newmeyer, University of Washington, University of British Columbia and Simon Fraser University "Linguists, their students, colleagues, family, and friends: anyone interested in the latest findings from a wide array of linguistic subfields will welcome this second updated and expanded edition of The Handbook of Linguistics. Leading scholars provide highly accessible yet substantive introductions to their fields: it's an even more valuable resource than its predecessor." Sally McConnell-Ginet, Cornell University "No handbook or text offers a more comprehensive, contemporary overview of the field of linguistics in the twenty-first century. New and thoroughly updated chapters by prominent scholars on each topic and subfield make this a unique, landmark publication."Walt Wolfram, North Carolina State University This second edition of The Handbook of Linguistics provides an updated and timely overview of the field of linguistics. The editor's broad definition of the field ensures that the book may be read by those seeking a comprehensive introduction to the subject, but with little or no prior knowledge of the area. Building on the popular first edition, The Handbook of Linguistics, Second Edition features new and revised content reflecting advances within the discipline. New chapters expand the already broad coverage of the Handbook to address and take account of key changes within the field in the intervening years. It explores: psycholinguistics, linguistic anthropology and ethnolinguistics, sociolinguistic theory, language variation and second language pedagogy. With contributions from a global team of leading linguists, this comprehensive and accessible volume is the ideal resource for those engaged in study and work within the dynamic field of linguistics.

Synopsis Negotiating Language Policies in Schools by : Kate Menken
Educators are at the epicenter of language policy in education. This book explores how they interpret, negotiate, resist, and (re)create language policies in classrooms. Bridging the divide between policy and practice by analyzing their interconnectedness, it examines the negotiation of language education policies in schools around the world, focusing on educators’ central role in this complex and dynamic process. Each chapter shares findings from research conducted in specific school districts, schools, or classrooms around the world and then details how educators negotiate policy in these local contexts. Discussion questions are included in each chapter. A highlighted section provides practical suggestions and guiding principles for teachers who are negotiating language policies in their own schools.
