Abstract:

It is clearly illogical to search for one good, universal solution for
multilingual education when educational contexts differ so widely due to
demographic and social factors. The situation is further complicated by the
motivations of learners and teachers, and by attitudes towards multilingualism
and ‘otherness’. The studies in this volume seek to investigate not only
whether certain solutions and practices are ‘good’, but also when and for whom
they make sense. The book covers a wide range of Western multilingual
contexts, and uncovers common themes and practices, shared aims and
preoccupations, and often similar solutions, within seemingly diverse
contexts. In addition to chapters based on empirical data, this book offers
theoretical contributions in the shape of a discussion of the appropriateness
of L1-Ln terminology when discussing complex multilingual realities, and looks
at how the age factor works in classroom settings.
