This book examines how social and political changes brought about by transnational migration and the new economic order are producing new ways of regulating language and establishing what counts as 'linguistic capital.' Contributors in linguistics, TESOL, cultural studies, and the sociology of language take a critical ethnographic-sociolinguistic stance to examine the overt and covert ways in which language and institutional practices address core questions concerning power and the place of migrants in various national contexts. Chapters grouped in sections on the sites of control, selection, and resistance. The book is distributed in the US by UTP Distribution. Annotation ©2014 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
