Refugee Resettlement in the United States: Language, Policy, Pedagogy (None): summary, description and annotation
We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Refugee Resettlement in the United States: Language, Policy, Pedagogy (None)" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.
This edited volume brings together scholars from various disciplines to discuss how language is used by, for, and about refugees in the United States in order to deepen our understanding of what refugee and resettlement mean. The main themes of the chapters highlight:the intersections of language education and refugee resettlement from community-based adult programs to elementary school classrooms;the language (of) resettlement policies and politics in the United States at both the national level and at the local level focusing on the agencies and organizations that support refugees;the discursive constructions of refugee-hood that are promulgated through the media, resettlement agencies, and even the refugees themselves.This volume is highly relevant to current political debates of immigration, human rights, and education, and will be of interest to researchers of applied linguistics, sociolinguistics, anthropology, and cultural studies.
