Abstract:

This volume explores the concept of ‘citizenship’, and argues that it should
be understood both as a process of becoming and the ability to participate
fully, rather than as a status that can be inherited, acquired, or achieved.
>From a courtroom in Bulawayo to a nursery in Birmingham, the authors use local
contexts to foreground how the vulnerable, particularly those from minority
language backgrounds, continue to be excluded, whilst offering a powerful
demonstration of the potential for change offered by individual agency,
resistance and struggle. In addressing questions such as ‘under what local
conditions does "dis-citizenship" happen?’; ‘what role do language policies
and pedagogic practices play?’ and ‘what kinds of margins and borders keep
humans from fully participating’? The chapters in this volume shift the debate
away from visas and passports to more uncertain and contested spaces of
interpretation.
