Description:
Sociolinguistic research on family multilingualism seeks to understand the
dynamic interrelation between caregivers’ decision-making and practices with
respect to language use in the family, child agency, child language
acquisition, and institutional policies outside the home. The 2023 Winter
School focuses on bi/multilingual families as a complex and dynamic space
whose norms are informed both by family-internal factors and home-external
affordances, including technological developments supporting digital
communication, and constraints. Our aim is to address and provide a critical
approach to multilingualism in diverse family types from various perspectives,
examining how, and why, bi/multilingual families in diverse settings negotiate
and/or navigate bi/multilingualism in the family. Additionally, we will
explore multiple methodological lenses, including discourse analysis,
interactional sociolinguistics, and ethnographic fieldwork, in researching
family multilingualism. In this way, we aim to support PhD researchers with
varied data, analytic methods, and interests.
