Abstract:

Now available in paperback!
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.
