Abstract:

This book presents case studies of ideologies of communication in
Japan which respond to recent epistemological and methodological
developments in the field and reflect the subject-wide shift from
ideologies of language to ideologies of communication. Chapters
explore a wide range of language contexts, from formal language
learning settings to video games, smartphones and language use in
couples and by immigrants. The authors use an array of innovative
methodological approaches and theoretical perspectives, including
language portraits, soundscapes and social space. The book also
contains chapters that present positive perspectives on ideologies,
examining how they can be created and mobilized to inspire specific
groups to pursue their interests. Together the chapters give a complex
and inclusive picture of language in Japan and the current breadth of
the field of ideologies of communication.

Linguistic Field(s): Sociolinguistics
