Abstract:

The Bilingual Advantage draws together researchers from education, economics,
sociology, anthropology and linguistics to examine the economic and employment
benefits of bilingualism in the US labor market, countering past research that
shows no such benefits exist. Collectively, the authors draw on novel
methodological approaches and new data to examine the economics of
bilingualism for the new generation of bilinguals entering a digital-age
globalized workforce. The authors also pay considerable attention to how to
best capture measures of bilingualism and biliteracy, given the constraints of
most existing datasets.
