Abstract:

Even a cursory look at conference programs and proceedings reveals a
burgeoning interest in the field of social and affective factors in home
language maintenance and development. To date, however, research on this topic
has been published in piecemeal fashion, subsumed under the more general
umbrella of ‘bilingualism’. Within bilingualism research, there has been an
extensive exploration of linguistic and psycholinguistic perspectives on the
one hand, and educational practices and outcomes on the other. In comparison,
social and affective factors – which lead people to either maintain or shift
the language – have been under-researched.

This is the first volume that brings together the different strands in
research on social and affective factors in home language maintenance and
development, ranging from the micro-level (family language policies and
practices), to the meso-level (community initiatives) and the macro-level
(mainstream educational policies and their implementation). The volume
showcases a wide distribution across contexts and populations explored.
Contributors from around the world represent different research paradigms and
perspectives, providing a rounded overview of the state-of-the-art in this
flourishing field.
