Title: Book: Constructing the Heritage Language Learner
Body: From http://www.degruyter.com/view/product/204181?format=G Constructing the Heritage Language Learner: Knowledge, Power and New Subjectivities By Neriko Doerr and Kiri Lee Published by de Gruyter Description: Heritage language education is a relatively new field developed as "heritage" has become an important trope of belonging, legitimacy and commodification. Many recent studies treat the "heritage language learner" as an objective category. However, it is a social construct, whose meaning is contested by researchers, school administrators and the students themselves. Based on ethnographic fieldwork in 2007-2011 at a weekend Japanese language school in the United States, this monograph investigates the construction of the heritage language learner at the intersections of the knowledge-power complex, ideologies of language and national belonging, and politics of schooling. It examines the ways individuals become, resist and negotiate their new subjectivity as heritage language learners through becoming objects of study, being caught in nationalist aspirations and school politics regarding what to teach to whom, and negotiating with peers with various linguistic proficiency and family backgrounds. The volume proposes a new approach to view the notion of heritage language learner as a site of negotiation regarding the legitimate knowledge of language and ways of belonging, while offering practical suggestions for schools.

Title: Book: English Language Pedagogies for a Northeast Asian Context
Body: From http://www.routledge.com/books/details/9780415806909 English Language Pedagogies for a Northeast Asian Context: Developing and Contextually Framing the Transition Theory By Michael Hadzantonis Published by Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group Description: This book investigates, from a sociocultural, linguistic, and pedagogical perspective, the conceptual and pragmatic frameworks that characterize secondary language learning in a Northeast Asian context. Hadzantonis contextualizes these salient domains through an engagement with social and cultural themes such as the familial, political, as well as cultural commodities and socioeducational structures. In this way, the text employs tools such as transnational theory and performativity and develops a model that contributes to the resolution of one of the greatest economic issues of the time, that of ineffective secondary language learning.
