Chinese as a Heritage Language: Fostering Rooted World Citizenry
Edited by Agnes Weiyun He and Yun Xiao
Publisher: University of Hawai’i Press

Summary: The contributors examine the socio-cultural, cognitive-linguistic, and educational-institutional trajectories along which Chinese as a heritage language may be acquired, maintained, and developed. They draw on developmental psychology, functional linguistics, linguistic and cultural anthropology, discourse analysis, orthography analysis, reading research, second language acquisition, and bilingualism. The volume aims to lay a foundation for theories, models, and master scripts to be discussed, debated, and developed, and to stimulate research and enhance teaching both within and beyond Chinese language education.
