<em>Description</em></a></p><hr /><br /><b>Descripción</b><br
/><p> This volume explores the concept of 'citizenship', and argues
that it should be understood both as a process of becoming and the
ability to participate fully, rather than as a status that can be
inherited, acquired, or achieved. From a courtroom in Bulawayo to a
nursery in Birmingham, the authors use local contexts to foreground
how the vulnerable, particularly those from minority language
backgrounds, continue to be excluded, whilst offering a powerful
demonstration of the potential for change offered by individual
agency, resistance and struggle. In addressing questions such as
'under what local conditions does ""dis-citizenship"" happen?'; 'what
role do language policies and pedagogic practices play?' and 'what
kinds of margins and borders keep humans from fully participating'?
The chapters in this volume shift the debate away from visas and
passports to more uncertain and contested spaces of interpretation.<br
/><br /><b>Review</b><br /><br />"Citizenship has become the major
bureaucratic mechanism extensively used nowadays to grant and deny
basic human rights for education, residence and well being. Whether
via language as a condition for reside or visas as the right of
children to learn, citizenship has become the controlling device for
everyday lives of million of disadvantaged people world wide. In this
most stimulating book Professor Vaidehi Ramanathan, along with major
distinguished and thoughtful authors, has created a brilliant critical
text that documents and analyzes the phenomenon in a multiple range of
settings world-wide focusing on ages, pedagogies, policies, languages,
gender and access." Elana Shohamy<br /><br /><b>Author
