Language, Migration and In/Exclusion in the Workplace, Paperback / softback Book

Language, Migration and In/Exclusion in the Workplace Paperback / softback

Edited by Jo Angouri, Julie Kerekes, Minna Suni

Part of the Language at Work series

Paperback / softback

Description

In today’s globalised world, large-scale migration is the norm.

A contributing factor to the successful settlement of migrants is the ability to access work and economic security.

This book focuses on the lived experiences of migrants who (try to) access the workplace, and explores the barriers and support they encounter.

The editors bring together studies which look at the ways in which inclusion and exclusion from the workplace are done linguistically from historical, discourse analytical, narrative and language assessment perspectives.

The chapters represent an innovative, holistic, intersectional and multidisciplinary approach to the subject, and illustrate a wide range of analytical methods and theoretical tools for the study of multilingualism and professional identity.

The rich empirical data contained in the book cover a variety of professional contexts and countries, and the book will appeal to both specialist and non-specialist audiences.
