Abstract:

It is common for scholarly and mainstream discourses on dual language
education in the US to frame these programs as inherently socially
transformative and to see their proliferation in recent years as a natural
means of developing more anti-racist spaces in public schools. In contrast,
this book adopts a raciolinguistic perspective that points to the
contradictory role that these programs play in both reproducing and
challenging racial hierarchies. The book includes 11 chapters that adopt a
range of methodological techniques (qualitative, quantitative and textual),
disciplinary perspectives (linguistics, sociology and anthropology) and
language foci (Spanish, Hebrew and Korean) to examine the ways that dual
language education programs in the US often reinforce the racial inequities
that they purport to challenge.
