Migration, Education and Translation : Cross-Disciplinary Perspectives on Human Mobility and Cultural Encounters in Education Settings, Hardback Book

Migration, Education and Translation : Cross-Disciplinary Perspectives on Human Mobility and Cultural Encounters in Education Settings Hardback

Edited by Vivienne Anderson, Henry Johnson

Part of the Studies in Migration and Diaspora series

Hardback

Description

This multidisciplinary collection examines the connections between education, migration and translation across school and higher education sectors, and a broad range of socio-geographical contexts. Organised around the themes of knowledge, language, mobility, and practice, it brings together studies from around the world to offer a timely critique of existing practices that privilege some ways of knowing and communicating over others.

With attention to issues of internationalisation, forced migration, minorities and indigenous education, this volume asks how the dominance of English in education might be challenged, how educational contexts that privilege bi- and multi-lingualism might be re-imagined, what we might learn from existing educational practices that privilege minority or indigenous languages, and how we might exercise ‘linguistic hospitality’ in a world marked by high levels of forced migration and educational mobility.

As such, it will appeal to scholars across the social sciences with interests in education, migration and intercultural communication.
