This collection examines the learning and teaching of minority
languages for adult migrants in Europe, with studies featuring
perspectives from adult migrants themselves as well as local
authorities, teachers, education planners and representatives from
working life. The volume provides context on the attitudes and
ideologies which inform adult migrant language education in different
minority languages in Europe. Adult migrant language learners are
understood here as newcomers settling and living in regions where the
minority language is politically acknowledged and societally
significant. The studies presented in the chapters are all original,
and most are based on qualitative data such as interviews,
ethnographic observations and policy documents. Some authors draw upon
census and register data and surveys. The book is designed to be
relatable to policy formation and implementation in other national
contexts, in Europe and beyond. This book will be of interest to
postgraduate students and researchers in language education, language
and migration, language and mobility, minority language studies,
language policy and linguistic ethnography, as well as language policy
professionals.
