bilingual interactions

[mahafan at KSU.EDU]

Hello Ralph,
I sent the below to the list but didn't see it posted. Am re-sending. Could you forward to the list if it doesn't appear there? Thanks, -Harriet

Laada Bilaniuk has written about it as "non-accommodating bilingualism." One reference is her 2005 "Contested Tongues: Language politics and cultural correction in Ukraine." Ithaca, NY: Cornell UP. Another is the sidebar she wrote for my intro textbook, "The Anthropology of Language" (2008 Cengage/Wadsworth).

Thanks, one and all, for your richly informative responses to my query. I will collate them and post the bibliography later in the week. 

Cпасибо большое!
