However the diverse range of different family units and contexts around the globe necessitates a similarly diverse range of research perspectives which are not yet represented within the field. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTackling this problem head on, this volume expands the scope of families in FLP research. Bringing together contributors and case studies from every continent, this essential reference broadens lines of inquiry by investigating language practices and ideologies in previously under-researched families. Seeking to better reflect contemporary influences on FLP processes, chapters use innovative methodologies, including digital ethnographies and autoethnography, to explore diverse family configurations (adoptive, LGBTQ+, and single parent), modalities (digital communication and signed languages), and speakers and contexts (adult learners, Indigenous contexts, and new speakers). \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBringing to light the dynamic, fluid nature of family and kinship as well as the important role that multilingualism plays in family members' negotiation of power, agency, and identity construction, \u003ci\u003eDiversifying Family Language Policy\u003c\/i\u003e is a state-of-the-art reference to contemporary theoretical, methodological and ethical advances in the field of family language policy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lyn Wright\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 135024726X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350247260\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/25\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 338\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.71d","brand":"Lyn Wright","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46747727692031,"sku":"9781350247260","price":54.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3493e4ad-0a70-4d53-a62f-58ad89d67370.jpg?v=1743584562","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/diversifying-family-language-policy-lyn-wright-9781350247260","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
