Abstract:

This book presents the career narratives of an under-researched group of
teachers: immigrant Filipino teachers of English working mainly with young and
very young learners in Japan. It provides a nuanced and revealing critique of
poststructuralist views of identity and proposes recognition theories as an
alternative perspective. It explores the role of the community found in
language teacher associations in the formation and strengthening of language
teacher identity and reveals new insights into morality and social justice in
language teacher identity. The narratives of the teachers and the communities
of which they are part demonstrate how prejudice affects these teachers'
lives, and how speaking about and celebrating success can affirm individual
and group identity.
